Jenna Ortega discusses Wednesday filming and fan interactions

Actor Jenna Ortega has shared insights regarding her experience filming the Netflix series ‘Wednesday’ and her interactions with fans. During a podcast appearance, Ortega revealed that she initially doubted the project’s success during its early stages. She noted that working with director Tim Burton was a new experience, describing him as a shy collaborator who often communicated through costume designer Colleen Atwood during hair and makeup tests.

Additionally, Ortega discussed her reluctance to compliment fans on their costumes in public. She recounted an incident in Brooklyn where she praised a fan dressed as the character Enid, only to have the individual react as if Ortega were a ‘creep’. Ortega stated she would avoid dressing as her iconic character for Halloween, noting that doing so would be ‘a bit too on the nose’.
