Emily Longeretta Jenna Ortega has Christina Ricci’s stamp of approval. The “Scream” star is set to play Wednesday Addams — a role Ricci famously played in the 90s movies — in Netflix’s upcoming Addams Family series, “Wednesday.”On Saturday night, Ricci shared with Variety what it was like stepping back into the Addams Family world.“It’s super fun.

I loved working with Tim [Burton]. I worked with Gwendolyn Christie, it was amazing. And Jenna is incredible,” she said during “Yellowjackets” FYC Event. “I saw some of the wardrobe photos before I went [to set] so I knew [what she looked like in character] and I was like, it’s such a great modern take on Wednesday.

It’s so true tonally to the heart and soul of [the original], but it’s then it’s incredibly modern and it’s great.” The upcoming series depicts Wednesday as a teen, while “The Addams Family” and “Addams Family Values” portrayed her as a young girl.

The new show, produced by MGM Television for Netflix, will follow the character as she “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.”Catherine Zeta-Jones stars as matriarch Morticia, while Victor Dorobantu plays Thing, Isaac Ordonez portrays Wednesday’s brother Pugsley and George Burcea plays Lurch.
