Jenna Ortega is responding to the backlash she received following comments she made about rewriting the script for 'Wednesday' in a 2023 interview.

Jenna Ortega is responding to the backlash she received following comments she made about changing her lines on 'Wednesday.' During a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Ortega admitted she 'could have used words better' when it came to describing her involvement in the development of her character, when speaking about changing some of her lines in a 2023 interview. 'I think, oftentimes, I’m such a rambler.

You’re never going to please everybody, and as someone who naturally was a people pleaser, that was really hard for me to understand,' she said. 'Some people just may not like you… and that’s entirely fine.' Ortega went on to say that part of the backlash could have resulted from overexposure to the public. She said the backlash was 'fair enough' considering her 'face was everywhere' in 2023, joking, 'I got sick of myself last year.

think the feel that we’re going for is a little bit more horror-inspired,' Ortega said of the second season. 'Not to say that suddenly we’re the goriest show of all time, I mean, there's six-year-olds watching… We’re doing this thing now where Wednesday just kind of appears. She is a little bit of a jump scare herself.' The second season of 'Wednesday' is set to premiere on Netflix in 2025.
