While Addams Family fans have previously seen this character as a little girl, she’s now (nearly) all grown up. Wednesday’s, well, Wednesday, is a “fearless, unapologetically smart” 15-year-old newcomer to Nevermore Academy, according to Millar. Wednesday’s got the same pigtails and enviable goth wardrobe as always, along with nascent young-adult a...
Meet Wednesday’s “direct opposite,” as Millar calls her. “Super bubbly” Enid is all bright colors, warm fuzzies and school spirit — in other words, she’s Wednesday’s nightmare. Naturally, these two mismatched souls are Nevermore roommates. Enid is also a werewolf, but her lupine journey isn’t exactly going to plan. “She’s a bit of a late bloomer, w...
Boys might initially be an “irritation” for Wednesday, as Gough observes, but even she can’t avoid them. “Xavier is the mysterious boy who Wednesday is intrigued by but doesn’t quite know what to make of and isn’t sure what his true agenda is,” Gough says. Nothing less shadowy would interest Wednesday. Xavier is one of Nevermore’s most popular stud...
Tyler is one of the so-called “normies” of Jericho, the county of regular humans that contains Nevermore. “He unfortunately doesn’t have these cool powers that [everyone else] has, but he’s quitethe barista,” Doohan jokes. Still, Tyler has “complications” of his own. “Tyler’s the ultimate boy next door who you discover has a darker past,” Millar te...
When building the world of Wednesday, Gough explains, he and Millar didn’t want to create the “prototypical mean girl.” Instead, we get Bianca, a siren and Nevermore’s queen bee — until Wednesday stalks into the picture. “What we told Joy [before filming] was, ‘This is The Bianca Showand then Wednesday shows up,’” Gough says. Unsurprisingly, Bianca...
When Enid introduces Wednesday to the wild world of the Nevermore social scene, she names four major groups: Fangs, Furs, Scales and Stoners. Ajax, a gorgon, falls into the last category. Not only does this supernatural species have the ability to turn people to stone, but they also enjoy being stoned, if you catch our drift. In Season 1, Ajax find...
Speaking of Enid, Eugene also has a bit of a crush on Nevermore’s most eligible werewolf. Eugene is a sweet and nerdy Nevermore outcast who is defined by his passion for bees. Through his friendship with Wednesday, Eugene becomes embroiled in the horror of the Jericho monster hunt. But Mostafa is optimistic about his character’s future — especially...
Every magical school needs its principal, and Larissa Weems is the glue holding Nevermore together. Weems has a history with Wednesday’s mom Morticia(Catherine Zeta-Jones), which gives her common ground with Wednesday. “Weems definitely can empathize with Wednesday’s situation, which is having to step out from under the shadow of Morticia: her succ...
The season-long presence of Thing adds a little extra Addams Family flavor to Wednesday. “We wanted a character who — as vulnerable as Wednesday is going to get — Wednesday could be vulnerable with,” Gough explains. That’s why the team cast a Romanian hand trick magician to play Thing, versus making him an entirely CGI character. Burtonwas particul...
Morticia, the definition of spooky glamour, is Wednesday’s mother and a main source of embarrassment for her teenage daughter. Outcasts — they’re just like us! Even though Wednesday would never admit this, her teenage years are “definitely” about “making her own mark and stepping out from under her parents,” says Millar. Years ago, Morticia was at ...
