Tim Burton is behind the new 8-episode series, which stars Jenna Ortega in the titular role -- alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones, Gwendoline Christie, Luis Guizman and Christina Ricci, who previously played Wednesday on film. The show is described as a "a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery" following Addams' formative years at Nevermore Academy, as 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."
