Netflix Renews Wednesday for Season 2
Wednesday Addams doesn’t bury hatchets, she sharpens them, and she’ll be back sharper than ever now that Netflix has officially renewed Wednesday for Season 2. The news is hardly a surprise; Wednesday is one of Netflix’s biggest hits ever, even breaking some viewership records set by Stranger Things. Season 1 of the Tim Burton-produced, Jenna Ortega-starring series inspired viral dances and unblinking stares, and according to co-showrunners Miles Millar and Alfred Gough, they’re just getting started. “It’s been incredible to create a show that has connected with people across the world,” they told Tudum. “Thrilled to continue Wednesday’s tortuous journey into Season 2. We can’t wait to dive head first into another season and explore the kooky spooky world of N...
Henry Selick Still Chafes at “Unfair” Title Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas
Henry Selick would like to remove two words from the title of his directorial debut, 1993’s Tim Burton‘s The Nightmare Before Christmas. In a lively new interview with AV Club, he chafed at the “unfair” process that left someone else’s name all over his first movie. “It wasn’t called Tim Burton’s Nightmare until three weeks before the film came out,” Selick said. “And I would have been fine with that, if that’s what I signed up for.” Selick directed The Nightmare Before Christmas from a script by Caroline Thomson that was based on Burton’s characters and story. But Walt Disney Studios, through their label Touchstone Pictures, wanted to take advantage of Burton’s star-power. He was just coming off two wildly-successful Batman movies as well as Ed...
Tim Burton Says His “Days with Disney are Done” Following “Horrible” Dumbo Experience
Tim Burton has grounded any potential future projects with Disney following his “horrible” experience directing the 2019 live-action reboot of Dumbo for the House of Mouse. According to Deadline, Burton shared his displeasure with Disney on Saturday during a press conference at the Lumière Film Festival in Lyon, France, where the director was being was honored with the annual event’s prestigious Prix Lumière award. He critiqued the studio’s narrowing focus on franchises like Star Wars and Marvel and rejected the idea of helming an installment in the latter’s cinematic universe, before saying, “It’s gotten to be very homogenized, very consolidated. There’s less room for different types of things.” Burton’s feedback holds some weight considering the director launched his filmmaking career as...
Wednesday Addams Trailer Reveals Christina Ricci’s New Character and Fred Armisen’s Uncle Fester: Watch
The official trailer for the upcoming Netflix Addams Family adaptation Wednesday has arrived, and like any long-awaited family reunion, there are a lot of new people to meet and a few familiar faces that look a bit different since the last time we saw them. Jenna Ortega stars in the Tim Burton-directed solo series for the titular teenage daughter of the Addams Family, who is sent to Nevermore Academy after a horrific piranha incident previously shared in the show’s teaser. After a series of unusual occurrences including an attempted murder, Wednesday summarizes her new digs in her signature, sardonic delivery with “There’s just something wrong about this place, not just because it’s a school.” On top of fleshing out the series’ overarching mystery, the trailer also introduces a number of n...
Wednesday: Everything To Know About Netflix’s Upcoming Horror Comedy Series
The Addams Family was first conceived in 1938, with the characters appearing in a series of 150 single-panel cartoons by American cartoonist Charles Addams. Since then, the satirical 20th-century American family has become a staple of American pop culture, appearing in different adaptations from television series, comics, animations, and films. No matter the era, it seems that audiences can’t get enough of the family’s eccentric and macabre style, the wild and mundane bodily harm inflicted upon each other, and the close-knit relationships that flourish in the ghoulish chaos. What keeps audiences coming back for more are the characters, especially the only daughter of the family, Wednesday Addams. Wednesday Addams encapsulates the dour and moody angst young crowds feel about the world, all ...
Every Tim Burton Movie Ranked from Worst to Best
Welcome to Dissected, where we disassemble a band’s catalog, a director’s filmography, or some other critical pop-culture collection in the abstract. It’s exact science by way of a few beers. The time, we enter the strange, dark, and still sometimes charming world of Tim Burton. This article was originally published in 2019 and has been updated. In 1986, after years of work in animation, various other below-the-line contributions, and a pair of short films by his own hand, Tim Burton stormed onto the international filmmaking stage with his ’80s feature run of Pee-wee’s Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, and Batman. In just a few years, Burton made himself a household name, and one of the most unique and sought-after directorial voices in a Hollywood beginning to find itself overwhe...
Jenna Ortega Is Your Principal’s Worst Nightmare in New Wednesday Teaser: Watch
One look at Jenna Ortega in pigtail braids, and Wednesday might be your new favorite day of the week. The most misanthropic member of the Addams Family is the central character in the upcoming Netflix series Wednesday, and it’s time to follow her to school in today’s new teaser trailer. Not that this is much of a surprise, but Wednesday (Ortega) has had a hard time making friends at her run-of-the-mill public high school. But that won’t stop her from going to great lengths to defend her family: “The only person who gets to torture my brother is me,” she tells a crew of churlish swim team boys mid-practice, before pouring a bunch of bloodthirsty piranhas into their pool. It’s not long before Wednesday is inevitably expelled (again), so, her parents Morticia and Gomez (Catherine Zeta-Jo...
