Christina Ricci will forever be one of the greatest actors to play Wednesday Addams. She appeared in the film when she was only 11 years old and enjoyed every minute of it because she was able to do what she wanted with the character. “I loved playing Wednesday because nobody ever told me to smile bigger, or to do it again but with more enthusiasm,” she told W Magazine. “I never had to pretend in the way that I had to at other times when I was a child.”
In 1993, she was 13 when she starred in the prequel and was excited to play the unusual character again. “The thing about Wednesday that people love so much is that she is someone who is completely allowed by her family to be 100 percent herself,” she continued. “To play somebody who doesn’t have to please others felt great.” It’s been over three decades since Ricci first appeared in “The Addams Family,” and now she’s getting ready to do it all over again. According to Deadline, the actor joined the cast of the all-new Netflix series “Wednesday,” a live-action show directed by Tim Burton.
