A new fantasy world is about to take shape—and Jenna Ortega is right at the center of it. In a recent Cut cover interview where she dishes on everything from growing up on set, embracing chaos, and prepping for Wednesday Season 2, Ortega dropped a juicy update- she is packing her bags for London to film an original fantasy movie written and directed by J.J. Abrams. What is it about? No one really knows yet. But with Glen Powell, Samuel L. Jackson, and some secret tattoos in the mix, the mystery is the fun.
The project is still under wraps, but Ortega shared that it is a fresh Abrams script filled with fantasy, and she has been involved since early on, including giving input on her character’s tattoos. She called it “very top secret” and hinted it was unlike anything she had done before. Filming kicks off in a few weeks, and Ortega is already prepping her dog Stinky for the move. “She’ll be a London girl,” Ortega joked. If that is not a sign this film will be delightfully weird, what is?
While Ortega’s bags are nearly packed for London, her soon-to-be co-star has been busy swatting off some lingering buzz of his own. Glen Powell is not just stepping into new roles—he is also stepping out of some swirling headlines.
