ABOUT
Jenna Ortega’s role as Wednesday Addams in Netflix’s series Wednesday made her an international star. Since then, the actress has worked at full speed, taking on starring roles in horror films such as X, Scream IV, and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Jenna has become a role model for young Latina girls across the world and has used her voice to advocate for anti-bullying programs, AIDS healthcare support, LGBTQ+ rights, women’s rights, and gun control laws.

She and her mother made the trip from the Coachella Valley to Los Angeles up to five days a week, securing roles in commercials and guest star appearances. Eventually, she landed her first lead role in Disney Channel’s 2016 series Stuck in the Middle. After working with Disney, Jenna wanted to find more mature roles, and found herself as a supporting actress in Netflix’s You. The experience sparked her interest in working in horror movies, and her career took off. Learn all about the life of rising star, goth style expert, and inspirational actress Jenna Ortega in this book for young readers!
