Actress Jenna Ortega, renowned for her work in 'Wednesday', 'X', and 'Scream', expressed that horror is everything to her, reported People.
When discussing her 2024 Super Bowl advertisement, the 'Wednesday' fame expressed her enthusiasm for horror, stating, I will continue to do horror for the rest of my life. It's the greatest.
Ortega remarked that the genre will "always be home" for her, saying, "I love horror [movies] because they encapsulate everything. They can be romantic, they can be funny, they can be dramatic, they can be scary. They're adrenaline-inducing and ignite passion in people, even scaredy-cats."
As a fan of the genre herself, the star of 'Beetlejuice 2' enjoys both watching and acting in it.
"I try to watch as much as I can just for my job, which is wonderful because movies are my favourite thing in the world, and I get to call that homework," she told People, adding, "So I think there's just something beautiful about horror and profound."
Despite her passion for the genre and her frequent roles in horror films, Ortega stated that she cannot be called a scream queen. "I respect the title too much, and I want to give it to so many other people," she said.
The celebrity recently showcased her acting abilities in a different setting, a Super Bowl advertisement. Ortega utilized her skills in horror for the teaser, but the complete advertisement lacks any of those frightening aspects.
"I kind of pull people in with the horror aspect and I think people think we're leading that route," she said, adding that the teaser also pulled her into the project. "I'll always be happy to do a horror project, which is why it was fun paying homage to it in that little teaser," People further reported.
