The makers of the popular Netflix show Wednesday have hinted that the relationship between roommates Wednesday Addams and Enid could turn romantic. Fans of the show have been speculating about this for a long time.
Since it came out in November, the show has broken record after record. A source says that 341.2 million hours were watched in the first week itself.
It’s a modern take on The Addams Family, which began as a comic strip in The New Yorker in the 1930s. Tim Burton is in charge of the movie. The famous actress Christina Ricci then played the macabre teen in two films about the odd old money clan in the 1990s.
This new series is about Wednesday Addams, the oldest child in the family, and her life at Nevermore Boarding School for Misfits. During the show, Wednesday learns how to use her growing psychic abilities and tries to figure out why her parents were killed so many years ago.

The show’s creators, Al Gough and Miles Millar discussed a possible second season and hinted that Wednesday’s friendship with her roommate Enid Sinclair (played by Emma Myers) could go further, even though that was never the plan.
When asked what will happen next with the show, especially now that Nevermore has ended, Gough said:
We wanna sort of explore and sort of complicate all of those relationships going forward […] For us, the show also is really about this female friendship, with Wednesday and Enid really being at the center of that. The fact that they really connected with audiences, it has been really gratifying.

Many fans wondered if Wednesday and her roommate Enid would be the “endgame” because Wednesday had “dipped her toe” in both platonic and romantic relationships. Millar’s answer was:
We’re not gonna discount anything, and, obviously, sometimes characters reveal themselves, which is the fun thing we love about television, that it’s an organic journey.
He continued:
We have a roadmap, and we’d like to have routes along that map that take you in unexpected directions. So, we’re open to everything.
We wanna explore that friendship in every way, but we’re not gonna be, this is where you sometimes get misdirected by fans and things like that, so it’s just being really open to see how those characters develop and that friendship.
It looks like Wednesday actress Jenna Ortega is all for the idea.
Ortega said on the red carpet of the show’s premiere that “[Wenclair] would have been a thing in a perfect world.” “Wenclair” is a cute hashtag that fans came up with for Wednesday and Enid Sinclair.
