It’s true to the tone of the originals
If you’re worried that the darkly comedic energy from the films is gone, rest assured it’s not. Wen, who grew up on the Dante films, was especially excited about joining the show because it remained true to the tone of movies. “[The characters] have become so iconic and I think it’s because it it had that cuteness but then it also had the shock value. I think that’s something Joe Dante and Steven Spielberg want to maintain. We’re so happy to able to keep that energy of being adorable and yet shocking. I can’t wait, it’s just such a fun roller coaster ride.”
