Tim Burton's THE ADDAMS FAMILY Series WEDNESDAY Reportedly Wants Christina Ricci as Morticia Addams

TV Rumor Wednesday Tim Burton Netflix Christina Ricci about 3 years agoby Jessica Fisher

Tim Burton is developing a spin-off series at Netflix based on The Addams Family daughter, Wednesday. The live-action prequel series was announced earlier this year, and The Illuminerdi says the “latest adaptation will branch into a spin-off prequel on Netflix focusing on the young psychic in her primitive years at Nevermore Academy away from her family.”

The report goes on to say that production is looking at franchise alum Christina Ricci to join the cast as Wednesday’s mother Morticia Addams. Ricci originally played Wednesday Addams in two films in the 90s, and it would be really fun to see her return to the franchise in this capacity.

For now, this is just a rumor, but we will keep you updated when we know more. Would you like to see Ricci play Morticia?
