Jenna Ortega Upcoming Movies, Shows

Following Jenna’s time on Disney’s Stuck In the Middle and Bizaardvark, she starred in a few well-known shows such as Jane the Virgin, You and Elena of Avalor. However, the Disney alum would soon solidify her place as a pro in the horror film genre after starring in 2022’s Scream, The Babysitter: Killer Queen, X, Studio 666 and American Carnage. She is best known for her role in Netflix’s Tim Burton series, Wednesday.

Jenna admitted to her affinity for the horror genre, as seen in her most recent projects, during an interview with Complex in March 2022.

“I tend to do a lot of horror but even my horror films I think are pretty different in themselves, which is enough for me and also keeps me on my toes and I think forces me to work in a different way or exercise a muscle in a different way. And I love a challenge. That’s what it comes down to when I’m choosing new projects.”

Other projects that Jenna has on the horizon include season 2 of Wednesday, romantic comedy Winter Spring Summer or Fall, Miller’s Girl, Finestkind and an untitled project by The Weeknd and Trey Edward Shults.
