her talking about choreographing the dance scene, practicing cello and fencing, and even making a spotify playlist for wednesday… you can really tell how much she cares about her character and it paid off so much

she deserves the recognition everywhere, i wish the interview is longer her charisma is so captivating!

In my opinion what makes Jenna perfect for horror movie, is the way she wears her hair. Along with her makeup and that devious look in her eyes!

She’s so humble, cute, and talented. Hearing her talk extensively about how much research she’s done for her character is also very admirable on her part

She's like the Johnny Depp girl version and her dance is stupidly hilarious but I love them. She's really good at what she does. I hope she'll be given the Best Actress Award. 3 months ago She was drop-dead gorgeous. I just wanna applaud Jimmy. This interview seems way more comfortable to watch and she seems to be enjoying herself just telling all the stories of her behind the scenes! So glad she came on this show She was extremely good In this show. Can't wait for season 2!!! She is the female Tom Cruise Her acting was actually the best I’ve ever seen, you can tell by all the work she put in, learning the cello, fencing, and more. It’s so obvious how much work she put in and she deserves so much! She's so humble. She's not fazed at all by the hype and fame. Love it. Jenna is definitely going to become one of the best and most iconic actresses! (guys chill I'm not comparing her to anyone, it’s my opinion stop being mean in the replies) Jenna Ortega is an incredible human being! It still blows my mind that weird and goth and geek and all these things that when I was a kid were SHAMEFUL and embarrassing are now mainstream and cool. I was obsessed with Tim Burton when I was a kid, especially Betelgeuse, as well as vampires and other things people thought were weird. I even remember convincing myself I was a missing member of the Addams Family that my actual family had adopted to which my mum responded, "If the movie to work on about you were adopted we would have given you back!" She portrayed Wednesday perfectly and her commitment to the character is unlike anything I've ever seen. She's beyond fabulous! The thing I just realized is that some people find Jimmy's enthusiasm fake and whatever but it really hypes up a guest if not in terms of praise then in terms of talking more and more about the show. Jenna looked shy and very straight to point and by the time we came to the dance part, she was going all in with the details of the prep work. I loved that Jenna Ortega’s acting was so good on Wednesday, Wednesday the Character almost seems like an entirely different person to Jenna it’s almost like it’s not even her, And just a completely real person apart from her, Jenna Ortega is such a Phenomenal Actress and will win an Oscar in the future she’s so insanely good and gorgeous. She’s so humble and real she’s just someone talking about their job which they obviously love For her to research "Goth" in the 80's and how they moved and danced, speaks volumes about her work ethic. She definitely delivered! She played this role "The Best It Could Be Done" She's one of the few actresses that can be pulled off looking scary but beautiful. :) Her acting is perfect on Wednesday. To think that she's not even a seasoned actress yet is beyond wild. I'm looking forward to more of her work. only is Jenna Ortega a Great actress. The dance scene was just so refreshing and took place at the right time in the season. Wednesday comes off as this sullen teenager with some very niche skills like fencing, the cello, and archery, but she's been refusing to show too much of herself to the other Nevermore students. When she finally cuts loose, it reminds everyone that she is not a wallflower or some shy character who is standoffish in social situations, she commands that dance floor by parking herself and her date right in the middle of it so she can show off, just like how her parents Gomez and Morticia would have done. Being a fan of dance, and a dance student for years, hearing Jenna list off her inspirations for the choreo she put together made me smile! She took some very quirky and iconic dance styles and made them feel new and exciting again, without breaking character for a second. Everything she drew from was totally in keeping with the Wednesday Addams we've known for decades. Bold, subversive, unique, a touch of humor, and totally entrancing. There's a good reason why so many people are drawn to that scene from the show. Jenna Ortega is genuinely a very nice and amazing person, love her so much. This interview just shows us how humble Jenna is. I would be over the moon if I were a part of a show that streamed over a billion times. She is such a down-to-earth actress. All my respect goes to her. Such a great role model and a breath of fresh air to Hollywood. I love Jenna. She's so bright and hopeful and she doesn't let fame take over. I love how Jimmy is completely fangirling over Jenna and she can't take a single compliment without getting awkward. Gotta stay humble. Absolutely love her personality. She was the perfect person to play Wednesday her blank expressions and acting were amazing and she is genuinely such a sweet person <3 Love her character and how much she researched for Wednesday. No matter who reimagines Wednesday’s dance and the background music..hers is above all others. And let’s give credit to The Cramps which no one else has. She does Wednesday perfectly. And her dance was perfect. Bro, she’s so well-spoken, love her sm She's so talented!!! She deserves all that recognition Lol. Shows my age, but the "Original " Wensday's dance was Epic watching it growing up, but Ortega is Great too! she's so humble and well-spoken, I hope the hype doesn't freak her out too much Jenna has way more knowledge and charisma than any actresses older than her. She's got a bright future ahead. I don't get the hate for Jimmy Fallon yeah ok I get the constant fake laughs are annoying but he is a good host and tries to make his guests comfortable from what I see How did she work so hard for this role, no wonder it became viral Literally, the dance is the only scene anyone talks about regarding the show. You can tell just how passionate she is about her work ♡♡ Now playing NEW MOVIES 2024 (Trailer) Now playing Top 10 Best Wednesday Moments (Season 1) MsMojo 870K views 1 year ago.
