00:00I'm Rosie Cordero and this is Deadlines on the Go with Wednesday and Netflix's FYC LA.
00:10And now we're with the stars of Wednesday, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Jenna Ortega.
00:15Season 2 was so wonderful. Jenna, we went darker with the character this season.
00:20Yeah, it was really interesting. I felt like because we had already established the character and the world in the
00:25first season,
00:26season 2 you get to play and explore a little bit more.
00:28Today we're here with the creators of Wednesday, Al Goff, Miles Miller, and on the VFX front we have Tom
00:35Turnbull.
00:35You know, every season she probably gets a little darker. I think season 2, you know, she understood Nevermore,
00:41but then when she came back and was, you know, popular, that was something she didn't like.
00:46The mother-daughter relationship is central to the show and Al and I both have daughters and see the day
00:51-to-day mother-daughter relationship
00:53and how it can be fraught and traumatic. So it was ripped from the headlines of our own lives.
00:58And we loved the sort of chemistry between Jenna and Catherine was so strong.
01:03Matisha Adams is such an iconic image visually and we didn't want to deviate, you know, go away from that
01:09at all.
01:10But we certainly wanted to find out more about what, you know, who is Matisha Adams, a growing contentious relationship
01:18she has with her daughter
01:20and how caring she is as the matriarch of the family.
01:23And then having those moments with Jenna where we get to sword fight and take our verbal play into a
01:29physical, it was just, it was great.
01:31It was, it was a lot of fun, yeah.
01:33I mean, there are so many different and new ideas in every script and there's so much of them.
01:39So every day it's like another thing you have to figure out and work out and that's what kind of
01:43keeps me going.
01:44I'm really happy the way it turned out and it was really fun to sort of see it all come
01:48together.
01:49So we have Chris Bacon, composer, Jen Malone, music supervisor, and Nicole Weisberg, music supervisor.
01:56The show is so, there's so many musical opportunities in it because there's a variety of characters, variety of story
02:03points, variety of sets, variety of settings.
02:05It's just, it's just a huge palette from which to draw.
02:07Well, I think we, like Chris, always let the scene kind of tell us what music is needed and what
02:14music is going to support the story.
02:16Nicole, we have to talk about Maggie Gaga.
02:18Yeah, it was a great experience.
02:20I mean, her team herself, it was so professional and so much smoother than you might imagine it would be.
02:25Yeah, I mean, how lucky are we?
02:27She's so, so special and so sweet.
02:30You could feel the after effect of her being on set.
02:33It was so cute watching, like, crew members who you see every day suddenly, like, wear a dress shirt.
02:39Or, like, there's, like, a walkway suddenly leading to the set.
02:42So we're all walking the walkway, like, oh, okay, it's the Gaga treatment.
02:47Thank you so much for chatting with me.
02:48So looking forward to season three.
02:50Oh, thank you so much.
02:51Thanks for watching.
02:52Deadline's on the go.
02:53Bye!
02:54Bye!
02:55Bye!
