At New York Comic-Con, they said, “His agent called and said, ‘Tim loves the script, he felt like he would have dated Wednesday Addams in high school. He’d really love to get on a Zoom or a call,’” Alfred said. “We’re like, ‘Great. How do we set that up, through his assistant?’ He goes, ‘No, I’m gonna send you Tim’s phone number, and you’re gonna FaceTime with him tomorrow morning.’” “I don’t think I’ve ever played a character that’s been done before, before. It was an interesting balance. We’ve also never seen her as a teenager, which was a cool endeavor,” Jenna said. “I felt very, very lucky. And also, I can’t think of many iconic characters that have reached as wide of an audience as Wednesday, who’s also Latin. It’s a great honor.” She added, “Now that Larissa has achieved her dreams of being in charge of the school, she has to deal with not only the bureaucracy as a woman in power of trying to navigate that, but the arrival of Wednesday Addams.”
