Back in January, Ortega teased what fans can expect from the new episodes, telling Laverne Cox in an interview for E! that "we’re definitely leaning into a little bit more horror".
She continued: "It’s really, really exciting because, all throughout the show, while Wednesday does need a little bit of an arc, she never really changes - and that’s the wonderful thing about her.
"There’s really, really good one-liners, and I think everything’s bigger, it’s a lot more action-packed. Each episode will probably feel a little bit more like a movie, which is nice."
