About this deal

Showrunners Miles Millar and Alfred Gough started developing story ideas in 2019. They subsequently acquired the rights to the intellectual property before writing a pilot script, which they sent to Burton. [12] To their surprise, Burton immediately became interested upon receiving the script. [13] Commenting about his decision to join the project, Burton stated that he could relate to the titular character's worldview and that the script "spoke to me about how I felt in school and how you feel about your parents, how you feel as a person. It gave the Addams Family a different kind of reality. It was an interesting combination." [11] Millar stated that it was "very important" to the creative team not to emulate the prior films and 1964 television series. [13] Millar and Gough decided to make the juxtaposition of "outcasts" and "normies", as well as criticism of colonial Americans, major themes in the series.

Her IQ is far above average, even for someone beyond her age. Before getting expelled from her former school, she had perfect grades. Since a young age, Wednesday has been reading books by several famous authors, such as Nicholas Machiavelli, Edgar Allan Poe, or Agatha Christie. Wednesday has a vast knowledge of subjects like biology, especially regarding carnivorous plants; human anatomy, as seen whenever she is torturing someone; history; chemistry; and criminology. She also is very competent at creating plans, which are mostly successful; she managed to disclose Marilyn Thornhill's true identity to the principal Weems while she was transformed and made her believe that was Tyler. She was able to free herself of being tied up twice, thanks to a small knife she is always carrying with her in one of her shoes. Another example of her intelligence is when she resolved Poe's riddle and discovered the secret library. Since episode one, Wednesday has had multiple plans to escape Nevermore. Wednesday is also an enthusiastic author, having already written at least one novel about a serial killer. This was revealed to have been rejected by an editor, resulting in Wednesday sending this editor a box of mouse traps as a 'thank you'. Moreover, Wednesday is a talented cellist. She indulges in this habit frequently late at night. Hailu, Selome; Spangler, Todd (December 13, 2022).

Though the cover is bright, the plays inside are dark and tragic. Containing eight Shakespeare tragedies, readers bear witness to the darkness of Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Timon of Athens, Julius Caesar, Titus Andronicus, Troilus and Cressida, and Coriolanus. Despair, death and disillusion are recurrent themes in these famous plays with famously tragic endings. Though drama rather than fiction, such themes would certainly appeal to the dark, imaginative and intelligent Wednesday Addams. Shop for vintage William Shakespeare books at Country House Library →
