Netflix Wednesday: Jenna Ortega’s tight filming schedule

Jenna Ortega says she barely got any time to sleep amidst all the filming for Wednesday.

Hollywood, 11 February 2023 (GNP): The actress for Netflix show, Wednesday shed light on her demanding schedule while filming the first season of the popular horror-comedy series of 2022.

Wednesday being the most trending blockbuster show of 2022 and Jenna, who portrays Wednesday Addams, reportedly had a very busy schedule while filming the show’s episodes. While filming for the show, she not only had to act but learn Cello and German language since the character Wednesday played cello and spoke German in the series.

In a Q&A panel with a media outlet, she opened up on her tough schedule as she said:

“It was show up to set two hours early, do that 12–14 hour day, then go home and then get on a Zoom and have whatever lesson that I had. Or show up to my apartment, my Cello teacher was already waiting for me. It was just constantly going, and if you could on a weekend, if we weren’t shooting the sixth day that week, it was ‘All right, well then, we’ll get your lessons in on that day.’

Jenna specifically mentioned that she put a lot of pressure on herself to nail the Cello scenes.

“I did not get any sleep. I pulled my hair out. There’s so many FaceTime calls that my dad answered of me hysterically crying.”

The twenty year old actress added that as the production was short on time, Stunt and Cello doubles were necessary just to complete the film on schedule.

“They had to start using Stunt doubles or occasionally Cello doubles if they didn’t have time to get hands. But I was very adamant about being as well prepared as possible because I wanted them to be able to use myself, because that’s so much more believable if you could see your face.”
