If there\u2019s one moment from hit new Addams Family series Wednesday<\/a> that has truly become a worldwide sensation, it is the dance scene<\/a> which appears in episode 4.<\/p>\n

The sequence, which takes place at Nevermore Academy\u2019s annual Rave\u2019n dance, has gone viral on TikTok, with fans looking to emulate star Jenna Ortega<\/a>\u2018s moves. However, as it turns out, Ortega herself wasn\u2019t even sure what she was going to do in the scene until just before it was shot.<\/p>\n

On The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon<\/a>, Ortega revealed a conversation she had with executive producer and director Tim Burton about the scene, and how it led to the dance coming together.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cHe came to my trailer about two days before we shot it and said, \u2018Hey Jenna, so I know you said you wanted to choreograph this yourself\u2019 because I refused to see a choreographer. He was like, \u2018I know you\u2019ve got it, you\u2019ve been working on it, I\u2019m not even worried about it. I trust you.’\u201d<\/p>\n
