In the wake of the ongoing Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike, many writers took the opportunity to call out the rising star Jenna Ortega after her recent comments about the rewriting process of her hit show &ldquo;Wednesday&rdquo;.
Ortega, who rose to fame after portraying Wednesday Addams in Tim Burton&rsquo;s TV show &ldquo;Wednesday&rdquo;, has been vocal about how she had to get involved with the script-writing process of the show, and at times she even had to argue with the script supervisor because she felt very protective of her character.

In an<a href="https://armchairexpertpod.com/pods/jenna-ortega"> interview with Dax Shepard</a> last March the 20-year-old actress said, &ldquo;There was times on that set where I even became almost unprofessional, in a sense, where I just started changing lines. The script supervisor thought that I was going with something, and then I would have to sit down with the writers and they would be like, &lsquo;Wait, what happened to the scene?&rsquo; And I would to have to go through and explain why I couldn&rsquo;t do certain things&rdquo;.
