While Wednesday is played by Jenna Ortega in the Netflix series, Ricci plays an original character Marilyn Thornhill, a Nevermore teacher and Wednesday’s dorm mom at Ophelia Hall who quickly adopts the gothic teen under her wing as a kindred spirit.

Ricci played Wednesday in the cult classic 1991 film The Addams Family, and returns as a new character in the Tim Burton series.
