Actor Isaac Ordonez from Netflix's 'Wednesday' shares insights about his collaboration with Jenna Ortega
In the highly anticipated second season of the hit Netflix series Wednesday, the dynamic between Wednesday and her younger brother Pugsley Addams is set to change significantly. Isaac Ordonez, who plays Pugsley, has revealed that he learned a lot from working closely with Jenna Ortega, who portrays Wednesday.
Pugsley, who was often in need of rescue in the first season, is now more independent and helpful, even serving as a "helpful tool" within the family context. This shift is evident as Pugsley joins Wednesday at Nevermore Academy, where he makes friends and exhibits new powers that he actively uses.
The season expands the role of the entire Addams family, with more family moments and action, likely enriching the sibling dynamic as part of the larger family story arc. Jenna Ortega, in an interview, mentioned that her character is "knocked off her feet" in Season 2, hinting at the intensity of the family interactions.
Alfred Gough, one of the showrunners, teased that there will be more of the Addams Family in Season 2, promising a deeper exploration of the family dynamic. Isaac Ordonez recently expressed his admiration for Jenna Ortega in an interview with PEOPLE Magazine, praising her as a wonderful and nice woman.
The sophomore season of the show premiered with a purple-carpet event in London's Westminster, attended by stars including Jenna Ortega, Isaac Ordonez, and the showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar. The season is set to introduce new characters to stir the plot, adding an exciting twist to the already intriguing storyline.
In the first season, Wednesday Addams fiercely guarded her brother Pugsley Addams, anyone who crossed Pugsley facing brutal consequences. However, in Season 2, the relationship between Wednesday and Pugsley deepens, signifying a move from a more one-sided rescue dynamic to a more reciprocal sibling dynamic.
Despite the family powers connection, Pugsley does not share much interaction with Uncle Fester in Season 2, leaving fans wondering about the reasons behind this development. The second season of Wednesday promises to be a thrilling ride, with the Addams family becoming a regular presence on the campus of Nevermore Academy and the characters from Season 1 having their own storylines.
The Addams family's bonds are further explored in the second season of Wednesday, with movies-and-tv series offerings that delve deeper into the family dynamic. This season, entertainment enthusiasts can also look forward to witnessing the evolution of the relationship between Wednesday and her brother Pugsley, as they navigate their roles within the family context.
