Jenna Ortega became an "unhappy person" after season one of 'Wednesday'.

The 22-year-old actress plays Wednesday Addams in the hit Netflix show, but Jenna initially struggled to cope with the pressures of fame and success.

She told Harper's Bazaar magazine: "To be quite frank, after the show and trying to figure everything out, I was an unhappy person.

"After the pressure, the attention - as somebody who’s quite introverted, that was so intense and so scary."

Jenna now serves as a producer on 'Wednesday' and she's loving the experience.

She said: "I sit in on meetings and listen and learn. I’m still finding my footing in that area."

Jenna also teased season two of the show, describing it as "bigger, bolder, gorier, and a bit darker" than the first.

She explained: "It’s sillier in the best way possible."
