Speaking with NME, Wednesday star Jenna Ortega shares how ‘awful’ it was to shoot while having COVID. The actress still had to shoot, without knowing she tested positive. She continues to share what her body felt like, experiencing the common symptoms. Read her full story below:
When the test came back positive, Ortega had to be removed from the set to strictly follow COVID protocols. Although this led distress to the actress, feeling she could’ve done better in the scenes when she felt sick. However, it seems there was nothing she could do.
It’s good to hear that Ortega took her time off seriously to recover from COVID. Otherwise, the filming schedule would’ve taken longer. While she feels a bit down about her performance, Christina Ricci praised her as the ‘new’ Wednesday Addams. Clearly, the young star has potential in spite of the minor setback.
I guess we’ll just have to see it for ourselves, when Wednesday releases on Netflix this coming November 23.
