In the new featurette for Netflix’s “Wednesday,” which dropped Wednesday, executive producers and co-showrunners Miles Millar and Alfred Gough insist their spinoff series is not a duplicate of what’s come before.
“It’s very important to us that it wasn’t a remake or a reboot — that this was a new chapter in Wednesday Addams’ life,” Millar said.
“This is really a show about exploring her journey into adulthood,” Gough added of the beloved character, first originated by Lisa Loring in the ’60s sitcom “The Addams Family,” and later made iconic by Christina Ricci in the 1991 reboot film of the same name.
