READ MORE: Jenna Ortega Manifested Her Wednesday Role From Resurfaced Stuck in the Middle Viral Video
While appearing for a video with ELLE, Ortega opens up about her first experiences and one of them happened to be the first scary movie she had ever watched. As expected, the first horror film she saw had been a terrible experience, especially since she was younger. Read her full story below:
But of course, like many kids with peaked curiosities, Ortega recalls sneaking out of her room just to take a peek of the movie, only to find herself having a nightmare about the murderous doll’s hand up until a certain age.
Talk about irony. Now, as Wednesday, she’s literally been forced to spend most of her screentime with a hand, the one they call ‘Thing’ as part of the Addams family and partly as Wednesday’s babysitter. Thing and Chucky’s hands even carry the resemblance of being sewed up after getting taken apart for countless times. However, this is a really minor detail that is different between Ortega and Wednesday, compared to everything the actor has committed to for the role, which doesn’t take the magic away.
All episodes of Wednesday Season 1 are available to stream on Netflix.
