Jenna Ortega

Netflix has released the first trailer for its Tim Burton-directed Addams Family TV series Wednesday, which stars Jenna Ortega, Catherine Zeta-Jones and ...

Co-showrunner Alfred Gough said he and Millar have “no comment on Uncle Fester,” with the writer telling fans to simply “watch the show.” “It’s not trying to be the movies or the ’60s TV show. “I think I’m going to love it here.” [previously teased](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/netlflix-wednesday-not-a-remake-reboot-1235200230/) that the series was not going to be a reboot or a remake of [The Addams Family](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/t/addams-family/), but its “own thing” and hopefully one that would play like “an eight-hour Tim Burton movie.” That was very important to us and very important to Tim.” “It’s something that lives within the Venn diagram of what happened before, but it’s its own thing,” he said. Burton serves as both director and executive producer on the eight-episode series slated to debut this fall. Nearly all of the Addams Family is teased in the trailer, including the disembodied hand Thing, but a notable absence from the preview is Uncle Fester, who also does not appear in the show’s first look photos. Described by her father Gomez (Luis Guzmán) and mother Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) as a “magical place,” Nevermore offers Wednesday the promise of a community of people who will understand her along with the possibility of making real friends. “Little did I know I’d be stepping into a nightmare — full of mystery, mayhem and murder,” Ortega’s Wednesday says, amid a confetti-filled montage (including some Easter eggs) that ends in blood.
