Jenna Ortega has found herself dragged into the writers strike in Hollywood.

If you missed it, last year the 20-year-old Wednesday actress revealed that she “just started changing lines” in the popular Netflix show’s script.

“The script supervisor thought I was going with something, and then I would have to sit down with the writers and they’d be like, ‘Wait, what happened to the scene?’ And I would have to go through and explain why I couldn’t do certain things,” she admitted during an interview.

The comments are resurfacing months later as writers reference them on Twitter, and fans have a lot of thoughts.

“Jenna Ortega better be back from NY for her afternoon shift on the picket line,” Nick Adams, a writer on Bojack Horseman tweeted on Tuesday (May 2).

Karen Joseph Adcock, who writes for The Bear, agreed, writing, “Rewriting is writing! See you at the line, Jenna.”

Variety also captured a photo of a protestor holding a sign that read, “Without writers, Jenna Ortega will have nothing to punch up!”

Fans took to Twitter to defend Jenna, putting the writers on blast.

“Imagine being a 50-year-old man, working your whole life as a writer, receiving poor pay, participating in a writers’ strike demanding more money, and for you to receive attention you need to name a 20-year-old girl who refused to turn a character iconic in a joke,” one fan tweeted.

“i am pro writers strike but anti jenna ortega slander,” another wrote.

“jenna ortega the definition of [oh a pretty girl lets hate on her’.. give her a break she’s been catching strays all week what does she have to do w the writers strike?😭all bc she refused to make wednesday say she loved a dress n bc she doesnt want a love triangle n she’s RIGHT,” yet another fan added.

“I feel like this is such a weird time to take a dig at Jenna Ortega 😭 like she isn’t why y’all are on strike lol and she literally was correct about her concerns with the Wednesday writing, some of the choices would’ve been (and were) so odd,” someone else opined.

One fan even referred to the story as “anti-strike propaganda.”

Jenna opened up about accepting the role in Wednesday recently, admitting that it took her a while to agree to the offer. She’ll be back in character for the Netflix series’ second season.
