Addams Family fans, prepare yourselves: the clan are back in Netflix‘s Wednesday – a new spin-off series starring Jenna Ortega and Christina Ricci, which has been co-created by Tim Burton.
The coming-of-age horror comedy – which is suitable for those 12 and up – focuses on the family’s teenage daughter, Wednesday (Jenna Ortega), as she enrols at a new school.
However, when a mysterious monster embarks on a killing spree in the local area, Wednesday must harness her own psychic powers to solve the mystery.
Along the way, music plays an important role, with a gothic score by Danny Elfman, who previously collaborated with Burton on Edward Scissorhands, Batman, The Nightmare Before Christmas and more, complementing the spooky action.

Who composed the soundtrack for Wednesday?
The theme music for Wednesday was created by Danny Elfman, the Emmy-winning composer and singer who has worked frequently with Tim Burton. Both Elfman and Chris Bacon (Bates Motel, Smash) composed music for the whole series.
Elfman has written the scores for most of Tim Burton’s projects, from Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands to Big Fish, Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas, for which he also provided Jack Skellington’s singing voice.
