Klara and the Sun<\/em>, Jenna Ortega\u2019s next major movie after Netflix<\/a>\u2019s Wednesday<\/em>, is set for a theatrical release on October 23, 2026<\/strong>. Taika Waititi directed it, drawing from Kazuo Ishiguro\u2019s bestselling novel. The story follows Klara, an outdated \u201cArtificial Friend\u201d android bought for a sick girl named Josie, and it sits right between intimate character drama and dystopian sci-fi.<\/p>\n

If you mostly know Ortega as Wednesday Addams<\/a><\/strong>, that\u2019s a big part of the appeal here. Klara is optimistic, sincere, curious, and emotionally open. She\u2019s far removed from Wednesday\u2019s cold, calculating, socially guarded presence, which makes the role feel in step with the more experimental phase Ortega\u2019s career has moved into.<\/p>\n\n

The trailer dropped in June 2026<\/strong>, after the movie had already picked up some early CinemaCon buzz. Before the wider release, it\u2019ll premiere at the 70th BFI London Film Festival on October 15, then expand a week later.<\/p>\n\n

You\u2019ll be able to see Klara and the Sun<\/em> in theaters starting October 23<\/strong>. Amy Adams plays Chris, Mia Tharia plays Josie, and the cast also includes Steve Buscemi, Natasha Lyonne, and Aran Murphy. At the same time, Wednesday<\/em> is heading into a third season, which Ortega has said will be Wednesday\u2019s final year at Nevermore Academy.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
