The character never got to be in the original comic book.
Jenna Ortega seems to be all set up for reprising her role in Netflix’s hit show Wednesday — but, despite starring in a renewed version of the famous story, she seems to be pretty much inspired by Addams Family’s iconic images from the past.
As the Netflix’s series brings in a whole bunch of new faces that have never appeared before, one particular character from one of the previous shows seems to be unfairly forgotten — and the actress really wants to make it up to him.
In a feature for Netflix Tudum, Ortega revealed that she had high hopes for bringing Cousin Itt back to the screens — the character’s first appearance was marked by the 1964 series The Addams Family as Cousin Itt was never created by the story’s original cartoonist Charles Addams.
Cousin Itt happens to be the Addams’ distant relative that pays them a visit every so often. The character’s main and surely the most attractive feature is that he actually doesn’t even have a human appearance, but more of a hairball that uses chic accessories like a hat and sunglasses.
Cousin Itt has a very particular way of communication that usually sounds like weird squeaking noises for everyone outside of the family, but, surprisingly, all of the Addams get to understand him perfectly.
Though Wednesday’s season 2 production may have already started in Ireland, the creators can still afford some changes and make Jenna Ortega’s biggest wish for the upcoming season true.
After all, Cousin Itt’s weirdness won him so much love from the 1964 show’s fans that Wednesday reviving the beloved character could have its viewers raving even more.
