Netflix has released a teaser trailer for their Addams Family spinoff-series, ‘Wednesday,’ from director Tim Burton.  The teaser features Jenny Ortega as the 16-year-old Wednesday Addams, and also features a first look is the Addams Family’s handy pet, Thing.

According to an official synopsis “the series is a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy. Wednesday’s attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.”

Wednesday will also star Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia, Luis Guzman as Gomez, along with Gwendoline Christie and Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in two popular live-action Addams Family movies in the 1990s.

The eight episode season of Wednesday is coming soon to Netflix. Take a look at the teaser for “Wednesday” – here.
