The star of ‘Wednesday’ and Tim Burton’s highly anticipated sequel steps out of the shadows and talks about the future.
After hustling from audition to audition for nearly a decade, taking bit parts, commercials, and basically anything she could get her hands on, Ortega has vaulted into the spotlight in just two years. She made her breakthrough in the 2016–2018 Disney Channel sitcom Stuck in the Middle, but that was nothing like this. A recurring role on the TV thriller You and 2022’s rejuvenated Scream certainly helped, but things went supernova with Wednesday.
The weirder you get with it, the more people you can get to see it, I think will probably do a lot for film in general. Are you able to say anything about who you play or what’s going on with the story? I don’t know how much I’m allowed to say, but I am Lydia Deetz’s daughter, so I’ll give that away. She’s weird, but in a different way and not in the way you’d assume, I would say. The relationship between Lydia and Astrid, my character, is very important.
