Eva Green to JOIN Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Season 3 as Aunt Ophelia; says, ‘This show is such a…’

Netflix’s hit horror-comedy, Wednesday, is in the news again. There has been a major update revealed regarding the cast of the upcoming season of the show. French actress Eva Green will be joining the sets of Season 3 as Aunt Ophelia.

Creators of the show on Eva Green joining the show The creators of the show, Al Gough and Miles Millar, shared with Tudum, “Eva Green has always brought an exhilarating, singular presence to the screen elegant, haunting, and beautifully unpredictable.

Jenna Ortega’s Secret Marvel Past—The Forgotten Role That Will Blow Your Mind!

Which Marvel Film Did Jenna Ortega Star In?(Photo Credit –Instagram) Jenna Ortega’s Marvel past might be one of Hollywood’s best-kept secrets. The 22-year-old, before she became a horror queen in Scream and stole the show as Wednesday Addams, had a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment in the MCU, one that even die-hard Marvel fans probably overlooked. Jenna Ortega’s Barely There Moment In Iron Man 3 Take a walk back more than a decade, in 2013, when Shane Black’s Iron Man 3 had just hit the theatres with its insane action, plot twists, and star-studded cast. It was around the 90-minute mark in that movie when a young Jenna Ortega appeared amidst the chaos—briefly, silently, and without a character name. She played the vice president’s daughter, taking up the frame for a fleeting moment with one leg (yes, that was a plot point). And just like that, her Marvel debut was over, with no lines, no big moment, but just a ghost in the cinematic machine. Jenna Ortega doesn’t think she will ever play a major Marvel character in …

She also teased the highly anticipated Legally Blonde prequel series and revealed what gave her the idea to bring a younger version of her iconic character, Elle Woods.  “It was kind of this idea … I saw that Wednesday Addams show, you know, and I was like, ‘Oh!’” Witherspoon told host Jimmy Fallon. She loved the fact that in the Adams Family spin-off series, Wednesday was shown as a high school girl trying to navigate her powers.  “I thought it was amazing. And I was like, ‘We should do Elle Woods in high school!’” she revealed and that’s exactly what the plot of the Legally …
