Fans are excited for the second season of Wednesday, which will feature more of Wednesday's adventures in Nevermore Academy. But, the follow-up will also explore what it was like for the child to grow up as the daughter of Gomez Addams.
The creators of the record-breaking Netflix series revealed plans to expand on Jenna Ortega's Latina Heritage.
In a recent interview with IndieWire, series co-creators Miles Millar and Al Gough reveal that Wednesday Season 2 will incorporate the titular character's Latina background. The series will explore more of her upbringing in a Latino household.
"It's so rare to find an iconic [Latina] character of this stature," Millar said. "We really try to find ways to [highlight that] authentically. What would Wednesday listen to when she was growing up? What would Gomez be playing?"
He adds, "And finding moments where we could really make it feel like a girl who's grown up in New Jersey with a Latino parent, and how would that resonate with her as a teen? Certainly this season we're looking for more ways to explore that."
