Christina Ricci as Marilyn Thornhill / Laurel Gates, the botany teacher at Nevermore Academy and dorm mother of Wednesday and Enid. You could succinctly describe Nevermore as Hogwarts styled by the CW, and Wednesday’s narrative arc as goth Emily in Paris. Like Emily, an outsider at a new job, Wednesday’s an outsider at a new school, likewise cast as an eccentrically dressed social pariah despite being gorgeous and excelling at every little thing. Where Emily falls into a love triangle involving a local chef, Wednesday finds one with a local barista; through crushes, peer rivalries and social faux pas, both brunettes ultimately come through in the end to save the day.
