Jenna Ortega has been on the rise since she was only nine years old. From starring in small roles to playing the lead, the actress has come a long way. But it was Netflix’s Wednesday that really put the star on the map and now it is the actress’s turn to return the favor. Netflix might be the biggest streaming platform, but that does not ensure that the giant is represented at every award ceremony.

While the media company is constantly adding new shows to its roster, not every show can be a major hit like Stranger Things or even Wednesday. 

Jenna Ortega and Wednesday are the only Netflix nominations

According to Newswires, the 2023 Pop Golden Award nominees were recently announced. Among the long list of names, there was only one Netflix show that had been nominated, along with its actor. And that was Wednesday starring Jenna Ortega, who already received her first Emmy nomination, thanks to the show.

While Wednesday was nominated for the Golden Film/TV of the Year, Jenna Ortega was also nominated for the Golden Actor of the Year award. All the other nominees are big names like Margot Robbie and her most recent project, which broke the internet, Barbie. 

But that was not all. Netflix has been putting up show after show to ensure their viewers are entertained, and this has resulted in a win for them with Jenna Ortega’s tremendous achievement. But while the star is finally getting the recognition she deserves for her role, the actress has already accepted her next roles and has left her fans wanting more.

Jenna Ortega’s upcoming film plans

While Ortega might be well known for her role in the Netflix series, You and Wednesday. But following the actress’s success in the film industry, it comes as no surprise that she has already been offered her next projects. The Wednesday star is set to take the screen again for Beetlejuice 2 and Finestkind.

While Finestkind drifts away from the usual roles Ortega takes up, it will give viewers more of a look into her acting range. It focuses on the story of two brothers who reunite to fight organized crime, but a young woman ends up being caught in the middle. The film also stars huge names like Tommy Lee Jones from Men in Black and is set to be released on September 8th.

And Beetlejuice 2 is set to be released in 2024, with Jenna Ortega coming in as Winona Ryder’s daughter in the film. The stars fans have already taken to Twitter with excitement to see what the actress can bring to these characters.
