Variety

The streaming service has given an eight-episode order to the live-action coming-of-age series, first revealed in October. "Based on the character originally created by Charles Addams, Wednesday is a young adult TV series described as a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy," per Variety. "She 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." Smallville creators Al Gough and Miles Millar created Wednesday, with Burton on board as director and executive producer
