Jenna Ortega shares how the WednesdayNetflix creative team made up Thing's language and mannerisms: 'It was so funny, because the Thing language was just made up on the day.'
Wednesday's Jenna Ortega reveals how Thing's language was established by the show's creative team. Last week saw the highly anticipated premiere of Wednesday, Netflix's new Addams Family spinoff series. Starring Jenna Ortega as the titular character, the show finds Wednesday enrolling in the mysterious Nevermore Academy and getting caught up in various mysteries.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Ortega now shares how the Wednesday creative team designed Thing's physical language on set. Throughout the series, Thing communicates with Wednesday using gestures and movements to convey thoughts and emotions. According to Ortega in an exclusive interview with Screen Rant, actor and magician Victor Dorobantu, who portrays the sentient hand in the series, worked with the team during filming to come up with the mannerisms on the spot.
It was so funny, because the Thing language was just made up on the day. Every day we'd show up and go, "Ahhh..." [hand motions] "That looks right. I feel like I kind of know what he's saying." But Tim wanted it to be an actual actor like they did in the 90s films, so it was this magician named Victor [Dorobantu]. He would wear a full blue suit, and he would hide behind walls and underneath beds.
Another potential avenue for Wednesday season 2 is a deeper exploration of the character's new powers. In season 1, Principal Weems reveals to Wednesday that the visions she has started experiencing have been passed onto her by her mother, Morticia.
Wednesday has received a lot of attention so far, breaking records on Netflix by surpassing Stranger Things season 4 for most hours watched in a week. Audiences may be eager to see more of Zeta-Jones, Guzmán, and Fred Armisen as Uncle Fester, while some viewers may have also felt the absence of the family favorite, Cousin Itt.
