'Wednesday' stars agree to reunite in upcoming rom-com

Wednesday stars Jenna Ortega and Percy Hynes White have agreed to a reunion in the upcoming rom-com Winter Spring Summer Or Fall.

In the smash hit Tim Burton-directed Netflix series, Ortega starred in the lead role as Wednesday Addams. Meanwhile, Hynes White played a psychic who was gifted with the ability to make art come to life. Their next project will see them appear in the directorial debut of Holidate writer Tiffany Paulsen. Additionally, Ortega will work as an executive producer.

The script for Winter Spring Summer Or Fall was penned by Dan Schoffer. According to a report by Deadline, “the pic being described as Before Sunrise meets The Perks of Being a Wallflower, the story follows two teens (Ortega and Hynes White) on the cusp of adulthood who meet and fall in love over four significant days of the year.”

“We’re excited to be further diversifying MPCA’s robust slate with Winter Spring Summer or Fall,” producer Brad Krevoy said in a statement. “Jenna is enormously talented as an actor and producer, and we know both she and Percy will bring heartfelt depth to their roles and that, along with Tiffany’s experience with character and her vision for this film, will only enhance the brilliant script from Dan.”

Aside from Wednesday, Ortega also recently appeared in the A24 Ti West horror X, Scream 5 and HBO’s The Fallout. She’ll also feautre in next year’s Scream 6Finest Kind and Miller’s Girl  in 2023.
