Jenna Ortega's book It's All Love will be released in a German translation on 15 February 2024. That's years after she wrote it and years after it originally came out in English. I guess we can thank Wednesday for that.

Jenna Ortega is going to be in a new film called Klara and the Sun.

Her film Beetlejuice 2 will be in the cinema 6 September 2024.

Both bits of news just shared by Jenna's mother.

Though I guess the joke is that it isn't going to be called Beetlejuice 2, but Beetlejuice Beetlejuice...
in reply to Gidi Kroon

Apparently it's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice 2024 A.D. in full, according to this Deadline article. And this is the article about Klara and the Sun. Jenna plays a robot designed to prevent loneliness and when she finds that a little girl has a mystery illness goes on a quest which causes her to learn about human love. This sounds great!

US people: reminder that Miller's Girl, a film with Jenna Ortega in the lead role, is in your theaters tomorrow. I think it's going to be a good one!

For people in NL like me, we wait until 14 March.
#JennaOrtega #MillersGirl



Last weekend Jenna Ortega's film Miller's Girl had its festival premiere and 26 January it will have its theatrical release. Good news is that we in the Netherlands don't need to wait too long this time: Thursday 14 March it will be in our cinemas!

I've read news that despite being on streaming, Wednesday is going to be released on disc as well. Season one will apparently come out on 26 March.

I'm going to do some mixed-up rewatch to see the combined talents of Jenna Ortega and Amy-Leigh Hickman by jumping between the second and fourth seasons of You. Double the brilliance. I'll be doing episodes 2x08, 4x08, 2x09, 4x09, 2x10 and 4x10.

You 2x09 Ellie report (spoilers)
Ellie walks in on Joe and Love who have met up the morning after the events of Forty's process. She is still looking for her sister Delilah and proceeds to spend the day cooking with Love. She tells Love about how she came to live with her sister after her father died. Later in the episode she has the arguably most heartfelt moment of the series where she has her 'what's wrong with me' outburst in the kitchen, when she believes her sister has left her.

You 4x09 Nadia report (spoilers)
Nadia is talking to Marianne about the plan to get her out without involving the police, while Joe walks in and she needs to hide around the corner. This is when a panic-stricken Nadia properly sees the madness of her professor, indicating the reality closing in on Joe. When he's gone Nadia and Marianne agree that the only way is for Joe to die. When Nadia is later rushing back after sourcing the drugs and knife needed, she gets into a mishap at the underground access gates and is taken to the police station. Once outside, she receives the remainder of the drugs she needs for plan b that Marianne has set in motion due to the delay. Meanwhile, she has to admit to her 'boyfriend' that she doesn't consider him her boyfriend as this is not the kind of conversation that you can postpone because you're in a hurry.


It's happening again: the film account for Finestkind has been promoting since forever that its release on Paramount+ is 15 December. That's now, so I check: nothing. Loads of other people in the comments having the same problem. It looks like it may have been a release in the US only. They literally never mentioned that. Which also means that there is no word whatsoever if I am ever going to get to see it here.
#Finestkind #JennaOrtega
in reply to Gidi Kroon

I'm so done with the entertainment industry thinking that the US equals the world. And with regional release dates.

I know that the argument is that the local distributors can have their own campaigns and social media accounts promoting their local release. But they never do. Because the US accounts always present themselves as the overall global one, representing the film to the world, until they don't.



I'm excited for this film: Jenna Ortega's Miller's Girl will be in theatres 26 January, after being in a film festival earlier that month. Sounds like a difficult story that can fully use (and showcase) her acting talents.

No point watching, or even making, Scream 7, now that Jenna Ortega will not be in it due to scheduling conflicts.

deadline.com/2023/11/jenna-ort…

Wednesday season one took eight months to film, she's doing season two soon, so there's just no time fitting in a seventh Scream. Apparently this was already being discussed before the strike began.

Great interview in Harper's Bazaar UK with Jenna Ortega, not about her films due to the strike, but about her career and her life, about the past and future, about her 21st birthday which was the first in a long time she was not working, about never being home, about representation, and about what she wants in the future. I like reading about her thoughts, she's a deep thinker.

Great photoshoot by Agata Pospieszynska as well. She's one of five cover stars for the 'Awards edition'.

The same issue also has Emilia Clarke and Gugu Mbatha-Raw. I can't find on the site how to order the issue, so what's the point in making such a star studded one?

Decades ago I frequently checked a magazine shop. Do they still exist?



More news about A24's Death of a Unicorn that stars Jenna Ortega: deadline.com/2023/11/death-of-… . It has wrapped and Jenna is executive producer.

In related news: in the past you needed to type well into her last name before type ahead search results on the various sites considered you might be meaning "Jenna Ortega", but I can report that now for IMDb "Jen" is enough and for Netflix a simple "Je".

The autocomplete on my phone needs nothing more than "J", or in fact just a #, but that's years of training...
#JennaOrtega



I need more things like Wednesday and The Fallout, with Jenna Ortega in actual lead roles, it's such an experience. It's great seeing her in supporting roles and ensemble casts and even then she stands out, but there's nothing like a project being totally driven by her. There's no one like her.

Trailer for Finestkind is on YouTube. The film will be on Paramount+ from 15 December. The great thing: Jenna Ortega is in it!

It's the episode with the second of two cello scenes by Jenna in the series. It's my understanding many more were filmed in the series, but they had to be cut because the episodes ran too long. I so hope we get to see them some day.

It's also the episode of the extreme camera angles in front of the fireplace.

Btw, Scream (2022) with Jenna Ortega has also become available on Netflix in my country (NL). It transferred there from SkyShowtime where Scream VI (2023) is still available.
#JennaOrtega #Scream
in reply to Gidi Kroon

I really liked the series, it's varied enough in its stories to not be a repetitive kids-running-from-dinosaurs-and-surviving. The characters are quite interesting and multi-faceted. The development of the two girls finding out they like girls and especially each other, was nicely done.

I dislike how Hollywood writers whenever they write a smart teenage girl, invariably shoehorn in a love story with the bad-guy-who-turns-out-to-be-ok, even if it doesn't make sense for the character to be attracted to such a guy. See also Stuck in the Middle.

Happy Birthday Jenna!

Jenna Ortega turns 21 today. I'm going to celebrate by watching some Wednesday and seeing a film of hers (still deciding which). Above photo was posted by her hair stylist Jenny Cho and taken yesterday in Paris.

It has been confirmed that Scream 7 will happen, but it is not known yet whether Jenna Ortega, or in fact anyone else, returns. These negotiations will probably wait until after the strike.

Jenna Ortega is, or will be, filming Death of a Unicorn. As an A24 film this is not impacted by the strike (as A24 accepted the union's conditions and the union promotes people working on such projects).

I think this is good news not just because I want to see more Jenna Ortega films, and preferably good ones like A24 usually makes, but also because it provides work for all those other professions that depend on the film industry (catering, drivers, builders) and that would otherwise be impacted by the strike.

Now, again, watching the brilliance that is Jenna Ortega in The Fallout. I hope she makes many more films like this. I don't care whether they are super famous film franchises or relatively unknown indies like this, I'll watch it anyway. I'm watching it from my dvd (only a US region coded dvd is available, no blu-ray, no European disc).

Now watching Scream VI in 4k from my disc. I saw it in the cinema when it came out and watching Jenna Ortega in this film was such an experience, she's so good. But when has she ever not been at the top of her game? Never. What also stood out to me about this film is that it's a horror with properly fleshed out characters, with everybody doing a good job.

Two titbits from yesterday's Tudum, Netflix's fan event, that I gather from clips posted:

Wednesday season 2 is going to introduce another Addams Family character. Many people have asked for Cousin Itt to appear, but the cast say they don't know yet who it will be. Also, from the fact that the cast announcing this was Jenna, Emma, Joy and Hunter, you can guess their characters are back.

You is going to be the final season, as announced earlier, and there was no news. Just the suggestion that Joe is going to face (an) opponent(s) related to the many loose ends. The clips to illustrate these loose ends included Jenna Ortega as Ellie. My favourite story would be where Ellie and Nadia team up to take Joe down.

Jenna Ortega's Saturday Night Live episode is now available unlocked (but still geoblocked) on the NBC website. The sketches are so good.

All the sketches are online on their YouTube channel, the full episode has only the outro as extra bit and two or three times that she announces the music guest. These are just one line but surprisingly she has a different outfit for each. I don't know whether that's common on SNL, or whether it's a Jenna thing.
This entry was edited (2 years ago)

You can see that I've never watched an SNL episode. I don't know how the format works. I don't know which of the sketches are live and which are recorded. To do even some of them live seems a herculean task.
