Just in time for Halloween weekend, Netflix is giving us a peek at some more stills from Tim Burton’s upcoming Wednesday series. We’ll have to wait another month to bask in the full Addams glory, but for today we can at least revel in a glimpse of what’s in store. Including a look at what I presume to be Lurch, the Addams’ faithful longtime butler, cats in a canoe which I’m sure will have more context when we see the episode, and let’s also give a hand to our favorite hand, Thing. Also, is that a Twilight moment Wednesday has seemingly stumbled into? The twinkle lights would indicate so, but Wednesday looks characteristically perturbed, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Christina Ricci, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán and more will be joining Jenna Ortega to bring this latest incarnation of the Addams family to life. Take a look at the official synopsis below, and then take a peek into Nevermore Academy. Wednesday is streaming exclusively on Netflix November 23rd.
The series is a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy. Wednesday’s attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.
