Star Evie Templeton has revealed the deeper which means behind Agnes DeMille’s emotional change of coronary heart in Wednesday season 2, half 2. Agnes has been an fascinating character all through the second season of Wednesday. Her invisibility clearly made her a priceless asset for Wednesday’s (Jenna Ortega) investigation. But, she additionally struggled along with her sense of self, as she sank deeper and deeper into her obsession with Wednesday.
In Wednesday season 2, episode 7, “Woe Me the Cash,” Agnes took her hero worship to an entire new degree. Wednesday did not respect the mimicry, nonetheless, and their confrontation led to the breakthrough Agnes sorely wanted. Throughout a scene with Emma Myers’ Enid, Agnes lastly decides to embrace her inside “psycho,” letting go of Wednesday’s character as she takes off her black, braided wig.
Throughout an interview with ScreenRant‘s Grant Hermanns, Templeton described the scene as “truthful” and “necessary,” discussing how tough it may be, on this age of social media, to simply accept your personal individuality and preserve your self-worth.
I feel that’s a really lovely second, and I feel it meant so much that that second felt proper and felt truthful, as nicely. I feel that message of individuality and being your self and understanding your self-worth is an important message, particularly for youngsters. I feel it’s a humorous time with social media and attempting to not examine your self with different individuals, and embracing who you might be deep down. I feel that’s a very necessary message, and it was nice to mess around with that and see what Agnes was like while you take down the partitions that she’s put up.
Hopefully, now that she’s lastly shed her Wednesday Addams persona, Agnes can turn into her true self. Her dance scene with Enid was step one in accepting who she actually is, flaunting her invisibility for the world to see quite than hiding behind it.
Wednesday season 3 can dig deeper into Agnes’ private life and her background. We realized a bit about her household when her father got here to choose her up in episode 8, “This Means Woe,” however there’s extra to unpack there. Who’s she when she’s not copying Wednesday Addams, and the way did her childhood change her?

Agnes’ quest for an id is clearly tied to her Outcast capacity. Turning into invisible could also be useful while you’re stealing trinkets out of your principal or eavesdropping on non-public conversations, however it may also be lonely, a approach to disguise your true self from the remainder of the world.
