For some reason, the creators behind the Netflix TV series Wednesday, a new reimagining of the Addams family, have been pretty tight-lipped about who plays Uncle Fester in the upcoming show. With the official trailer for the series just revealed at New York Comic Con, the cat is officially out of the bag as Netflix confirmed it. Portland Actor Fred Armisen will play his role in the new series. Christopher Lloyd famously played Barry Sonnenfeld’s reboot of the property in the ’90s, and fans will be eagerly waiting to see how Armisen’s version compares to a version they already know and love.
Confirming the role of Armisen, we know we have a complete idea of the Addams family tree in the new series, including: Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams, and of course, Jenna Ortega as Wednesday and Fred Armisen as Uncle Pfister. He will also appear in two other major roles with Victor Dorobanto credited as “The Thing,” the anthropomorphic hand from the series, and Jorge Borcia playing the family’s servant, Lorch.
“We never saw her as a teenage girl,” Ortega previously said of the new version of the character. “You know, it’s funny, cool, and almost magical to hear about this eight-year-old’s obsession with murder, blood, and guts. As she gets older, that bad attitude or [those] Barb notes, it’s almost hard not to make her look like any other teenage girl, so it’s like we’re establishing this character and giving her the same fire without letting her become something she isn’t? Also, it’s an eight-hour series, so for a character with no emotion, there has to be some kind of emotional arc.”
describes Netflix Wednesday As a “supernaturally powerful and mysterious mystery” that charts Wednesday Adams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy, as she attempts to master her budding psychic ability, thwart the brutal killing spree that terrorized the local town, and solve a murder mystery that baffled her 25 years ago–all while navigating her new, tangled relationships very much in Nevermore.”
