Catherine Zeta-Jones Wants Danny DeVito to Play Cousin It

Season 2 of the hit Netflix series “Wednesday” made headlines with a guest appearance from Lady Gaga, but according to Catherine Zeta-Jones, who plays Morticia on the show, Season 3 is set to top that with the addition of Danny DeVito. Zeta-Jones revealed that DeVito, a longtime friend of her husband Michael Douglas, had not yet been cast in the series despite his impressive acting chops. She even went as far as to suggest him for the role of Cousin It, jokingly adding that he might not be too thrilled about the idea of being covered in hair.

The news of Lady Gaga’s cameo was kept under wraps, with Zeta-Jones admitting that she didn’t even tell her family about it until it was officially announced. She gushed about meeting Gaga on set, describing her as a “generational talent” and expressing her desire to work with her again in the future.

As the cast and crew prepare to reunite for Season 3, Zeta-Jones is eager to explore Morticia’s dynamic with her mother, played by Joanna Lumley, and how it impacts her relationship with Wednesday. She hopes to see Wednesday grow and evolve in the upcoming season, moving past her demons and strengthening her bond with her family.

With filming set to begin next year, fans can look forward to more drama, humor, and star-studded guest appearances on “Wednesday.” Stay tuned for updates on the highly-anticipated third season of this dark and quirky series.
