The Ricci Renaissance continues with an exciting new development: Christina Ricci is returning to the character that started it all, Wednesday Addams — just not in the way you might think. After all, it wouldn't be an Addams Family experience without a few surprises here and there! Since news of the upcoming Netflix series "Wednesday" was first announced, Addams Family fans have been grumbling about the possibility of bringing Ricci back to the role, a dream quickly dashed when Tim Burton's live-action series was confirmed to follow the childhood days of everyone's favorite budding psychopath.
Young scream queen Jenna Ortega ("Scream," "X") is set to fill the title role of Wednesday, which Ricci played in the 1900s Barry Sonenfeld-directed "The Addams Family" franchise. But just because the role of "Wednesday" is taken, doesn't mean there isn't plenty of room for Ricci. As Netflix confirmed via Twitter, "the magnificent Christina Ricci is joining the cast of the new Wednesday Addams series as an exciting new character *snap snap*."
