The star of the Netflix series Wednesday, Jenna Ortega, has been spotted in Dublin this week.
The Hollywood actress is in the capital city to film the second series of the hit show in Ardmore Studios, Co. Wicklow.
The decision to film in Ireland came after the logistical challenges that came with filming the first season in Romania.

The 21-year-old has been photographed in the City twice since she started filming, once when she posed for a photo with a young fan in an unknown pub and again when she was spotted eating with co-star Georgie Farmer.
The critically acclaimed director of the series Tim Burton was also spotted in the area as he posed with the staff of a South County Dublin restaurant.
Tim smiled for a photo with the staff of the Guinea Pig restaurant in Dalkey over the weekend.

The series has become the most successful English-language show on the streaming giant Netflix and has garnered over 250 million views.
Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in the two Addams Family films in the 1990s, is also on the show, but in a different role.

Hollywood legend Steve Buscemi is also set to join the cast for the second season.
It was first revealed that Netflix was filming the second season of Wednesday in Ireland, last November.
Screen Ireland confirmed the news at the time and wrote: “Delighted to welcome the second series of the hit show Wednesday to Ireland next year and to continue building Ireland’s relationship with Netflix and Amazon/MGM.”
