Jenna revealed her reaction to Christina Ricci’s appearance on the set of The Last Wednesday during an interview. ScreenRant:

“I remember when they told me, I think my heart fell just out of pure panic. But fortunately, she’s a really cool lady, and we got along really well. We never talked about the character. I just got to know her, and it was really nice and really wonderful. But it is a bit weird.”

“She added: “I felt the script was written very reminiscent of her Wednesday, and audiences already know and love Wednesday, [so] I don’t think I could have strayed too far with the character.”
