resolve its love triangle in season 2? Um. It might just not. Jenna Ortega, star of the massively successful Netflix hit, just revealed that the show is leaning away from romance and toward horror when it returns.

Jenna Ortega is offering an early glimpse into season 2.The 20-year-old star shared during 's latest «Actors on Actors» conversation with 's Elle Fanning that the upcoming season of the hit Netflix series would move away from romance and prioritize horror.«It’s still coming together, but we’ve decided we want to lean into the horror more. Because it is so lighthearted, and a show like this with vampires and werewolves and superpowers, you don't want to take yourself too seriously,» Ortega said.

Jenna Ortega met one of her childhood idols. The ‘Wednesday’ star had an insightful conversation with Elle Fanning during Variety’s ‘Actors on Actors,’ and revealed that she grew up idolizing her and Dakota Fanning’s career in the film industry.The actress explained that when she was younger she told her mom that she wanted to have a successful career, just like Dakota’s, who at that point had starred in multiple blockbuster films.

Growing up in the spotlight with social media isn’t easy.

Jenna Ortega joined some of this year’s most influential comedic actresses. Alongside Elle Fanning, Natasha Lyonne, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Ayo Edebiri and Devery Jacobs, Ortega sat at The Hollywood Reporter’s annual Comedy Actress Emmy Roundtable.

Jenna Ortega and Elle Fanning are opening up about their careers.

the Hollywood Reporter. “…I know what it’s like to be a people-pleaser in this industry, and I know how unhappy or how frustrating it’s been in the past. When I went into ‘Wednesday,’ I really put my foot down and made it clear that everything that I had to say mattered and was heard.”Ortega, who starred as a version of Wednesday Addams in the Netflix hit “Wednesday,” (executive produced by Tim Burton) made waves in March for her controversial comments about her behavior on set. While appearing on the “Armchair Expert” podcast with Dax Shepard, 48, Ortega revealed that when she first signed onto the Golden Globe nominated show, which follows the gloomy Wednesday as she solves a mystery at her high school, she thought the tone would be darker. Once she realized it was more of a whimsical tone geared towards a teen audience, “I don’t think I’ve ever had to put my foot down more on a set in a way that I had to on ‘Wednesday,’” she shared on the podcast.

“Wednesday” broke streaming records around the world when it was released at the end of last year, so it’s no surprise Jenna Ortega has a fair few strange fan stories to tell.

Elle Fanning, 25, and Jenna Ortega, 20, have learned a lot from their roles as Catherine the Great and Wednesday Addams (respectively). Hulu’s “The Great” and Netflix’s “Wednesday” have educated them about their craft as actors, but also about how producing can liberate them from toxic workplace dynamics. These former child stars let each other in on how they’re navigating adulthood and the pressures of social media, a topic that makes Ortega teary. ELLE FANNING: Are you a good auditioner? I’m terrible. I fainted once. I think I was 12. But I got Pinkberry and Burger King afterwards, so I was like, “This is great!” They make me so nervous.

Jenna Ortega has revealed that she had a “weird” fan moment from a Wednesday fan during a flight.Speaking as part of a roundtable event with The Hollywood Reporter, Ortega recalled how she’s been surprised by audiences for the hit Netflix show – with fans spanning a much greater age range than she thought. In the show, Ortega plays the titular character of Wednesday Adams.She said: “Wednesday has a much wider audience than I anticipated, at least age wise, so it’s older people and younger people,” she said of the show’s fans.Ortega went on to describe how she had a “weird” moment on a plane with a flight attendant who was also a fan.She explained: “But I’ve had a couple of weird plane stories, too, where I’ve woken up to notes or things like that.“I got off one yesterday, and at the end, the flight attendant took her hair down out of the bun and it was in two braids and she took her bangs down and she said, ‘You made me do this,'” she recalled, in reference to her character’s hairstyle in the show.Meanwhile, the second season of Wednesday is set to explore more of the character’s Latino heritage.Last month marked six months since the Addams Family spin-off first arrived on Netflix, starring Ortega alongside a cast including Catherine Zeta-Jones, Gwendoline Christie and Christina Ricci.Now, with the popular series being confirmed for a second season, co-creator Miles Millar has discussed the possible plot choices for the next instalment of the show with IndieWire, and shared that the writers are looking for a way to make the character’s heritage more prominent in the story.“It’s so rare to find an iconic character of this stature,” said Millar of Ortega, who has Mexican and Puerto Rican ancestry.

Keaton told Empire Saturday. “It’s so fun, it’s so great.

There is a suggested line to when a superhero movie relies too much on the fleeting high of fan service and special effects. Andy Muschietti’s “The Flash” blitzes past that line and then proceeds to run out of ideas.

The hype is real. DC’s The Flash may not be the greatest comic book movie ever made, but it comes damn close. Easily the best in the genre since Spider-Man: No Way Home, this fresh, invigorating and hugely entertaining summer treat is as good as it gets when it comes to cinematic takes on superheroes.

Michael Keaton is talking Beetlejuice 2!

Michael Keaton is reuniting with Tim Burton to revive filmdom’s most beloved bio-exorcist in a long-awaited sequel to “Beetlejuice”.

And a strong case could be made for “Jackie Brown.” For his much-anticipated follow-up to the zeitgeist-capturing (and Oscar-winning) “Pulp Fiction,” Tarantino chose an adaptation of Elmore Leonard’s 1992 novel “Rum Punch.” (It was his first and only movie based on a preexisting source.) Tarantino went to casting some of his heroes in the lead roles – Pam Grier, who made a name for herself starring in low-budget exploitation films for Roger Corman, plays the title role; and Robert Forster, who appeared in cult favorites like “Alligator” and Disney’s misbegotten “The Black Hole.” It’s a twisty crime movie, for sure, with outstanding performers in supporting parts (Bridget Fonda, Robert De Niro, Michael Keaton and Samuel L.

Mark Hamill never believed that he had a shot at becoming the voice of the Joker on Batman projects.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director While Heath Ledger, Joaquin Phoenix and Jack Nicholson are the faces that pop into one’s head when the name “Joker” is said, no list of the best on-screen Jokers is complete without Mark Hamill. The “Star Wars” icon voiced the Batman villain on “Batman: The Animated Series,” which originally aired for 85 episodes on Fox Kids from 1992-1995. Hamill earned acclaim for the voice role, but it would have never happened without Michael Keaton’s casting as Batman in Tim Burton’s 1989 comic book film. As Hamill recalled during a recent Wired video interview, Keaton’s casting as Bruce Wayne/Batman earned backlash from comic book fans, considering he was more known as a comedic actor in films such as “Mr. Mom” and Burton’s own “Beetlejuice.”

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Let’s travel back to the summer of 1989. I’m 15 years old and have just put two large movie posters on my wall: One for Tim Burton’s game-changing take on “Batman,” starring Michael Keaton, and the other for “UHF,” the theatrical comedy debut for the one and only “Weird Al” Yankovic. It’s now 2023. Keaton is back as Batman in next month’s “The Flash.” And Weird Al (always Weird Al, not just Al Yankovic!) is the front-runner for this year’s TV movie Emmy, thanks to the Roku Channel parody biopic “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.” “1989 is back again! It’s all cyclical,” Yankovic says in his signature cheery, upbeat tone. Tell my 15-year-old self that one day he’ll be recording a podcast with Weird Al, and first he’d say, “what’s a podcast?” But after explaining that it’s essentially a radio show, my 15-year-old self would lose his mind. And ask about 2023’s flying cars. Sorry kid.
