At just 16, Isaac Ordonez steps into the iconic shadow of Pugsley Addams—and doesn’t flinch. In the newest season of Wednesday, streaming now on Netflix, Isaac brings a fresh dimension to the mischievous Addams sibling: still chaotic and curious, but also more vulnerable, emotional, and surprisingly relatable.

In this TMRW exclusive, we talk with Isaac about what it was like working under the direction of Tim Burton, learning from scene partners like Jenna Ortega and Luis Guzmán, his love of horror films and metal music, and how gaming, guitar, and Twitch help him stay grounded off screen. From building a character fans love, to staying true to his own weird and wonderful energy, Isaac proves that he’s far more than just a sidekick—he’s a star of his own.
