During her appearance on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, Jenna opened up about how she “put my foot down on a set” to keep Wednesday grounded.
She continued, “There were times on that set where I even became unprofessional in a sense where I just started changing lines. 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.”
“Everything that she does, everything that I had to play, did not make sense for her character at all,” Jenna added, before recalling a few of the scenes she changed: “Her being in a love triangle made no sense. There was a line about this dress that she has to wear for a school dance and she says, ‘Oh my god, I love it! I can’t believe I said that. I literally hate myself.’ And I had to go, ‘No, there’s no way.’”
