The original goth girl, Wednesday Addams, steps into the spotlight in Netflix’s Wednesday.
, she didn’t just refuse to bend to societal norms and expectations – she skewered all those that did so with a seemingly inexhaustive supply of effortless witticisms and one-liners. Plus, she always strived to live by her family’s enviable credo: “Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc.”Jenna Ortega stars as Wednesday Addams in Netflix's Wednesday.
Considering Burton’s series is every bit as dark as the 90s films, the 60s TV series and the original comic books about, this is by no means a bad thing. Especially as we are first introduced to Wednesday when she’s in full vengeance, hell-hath-no-fury-like-a-sister-scorned mode – which, in this instance, looks like siccing a school of flesh-eating piranhas on a boys’ swim team after they mess with her brother, Pugsley .
One of them, the ringleader, isn’t so lucky; he escapes with his life, but seemingly without his penis intact. The injury prompts the slyest of satisfied smiles from Ortega’s Wednesday, and this brilliant line: “I did the world a favour. People like Dalton shouldn’t be allowed to procreate.”
