Netflix Wins Bidding War For Addams Family TV Show, Wednesday

In February 2021 we reported that Netflix won the bidding war for the upcoming Tim Burton-directed Addams Family TV show, Wednesday. In the time since the announcement was made, the role of Wednesday Addams has finally been cast and filming is underway! We’re going to be keeping track of everything you need to know about Wednesday, including the plot, casting news, production updates, and the eventual Netflix release date.

It has already been announced that MGM TV is the production studio behind the development of Wednesday, with Burton on board as an executive producer alongside his duties as a director.

Wednesday’s attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.

Ortega has starred in multiple Originals for Netflix. She is most recognizable for her role as Ellie in the second season of You, Phoebe in The Babysitter: Killer Queen, and Katie Torres in Yes Day. The remaining leads and supporting cast members have also been cast in the Wednesday series.

Who Has Exited Wednesday?

EXCLUSIVE: Thora Birch has exited Wednesday, Tim Burton’s live-action Addams Family series for Netflix. The series, which is filming in Romania, stars Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams during her years at Nevermore Academy. “Thora has returned to the States to attend to a personal matter and will not be returning to the production,” a rep for series producer MGM said in a statement to Deadline.

I hear Birch had finished filming the bulk of her series regular role as Tamara Novak, Wednesday’s dorm mother and the only “Normie” on staff at Nevermore Academy with a focus on all things botanical. The role will not be recast, with producers looking to add a new character to the show’s first season, I hear. It is unclear whether that character will take over for Tamara and help close out her planned storyline with both of them co-existing on the show or whether the new character will replace Tamara and Birch’s scenes will be reshot.

The coming-of-age comedy, written by Smallville creators Al Gough and Miles Millar and directed by Burton, is described as a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery. Burton executive produces with Gough and Millar, who serve as showrunners on the series. Also executive producing are Kayla Alpert, Steve Stark, as well as Andrew Mittman for 1.21, Kevin Miserocchi, Jonathan Glickman for Glickmania and Gail Berman.

Who Plays Wednesday Addams In Netflix’S Upcoming Addams Family Series?

Wednesday Addams isn’t scared of much. Insects? Nope.

There’s the teen relationships. And all under the prism of Tim Burton. Below, EW’s exclusive look at Wednesday, with Gough and Millar breaking down a script page from the series.

She has to go to boarding school and, in a sense, create a new family, says Gough. C. Family Rules Wednesday loves torturing her younger brother, Pugsley — but that doesn’t mean anyone else is allowed to do it. She’s really a defender of the innocent, says Millar.

Adds Millar, It was very important to Tim — and to us — that this isn’t a remake.
