The Hollywood star with Mexican and Puerto Rican roots presented the film Death of a Unicorn in New York. The star-studded event took place at the AMC Lincoln Theater in the heart of the Big Apple. Jenna radiated gothic glamour as she joined the other actors and crew members on the red carpet.
Ortega chose a black ankle-length dress with off-the-shoulder details and an original asymmetric bodice, which was secured at the chest with a silver buckle adorned with rhinestones. The model looked seductive with a cutout under the chest and an extreme thigh-high slit. The outfit highlighted her slender figure. The total black look was completed with stiletto heels with an open back and an ankle strap.
The actress opted for minimal accessories to ensure her monochrome outfit remained the focal point, wearing elegant silver earrings and a ring on each hand. Jenna’s makeup featured bold winged eyeliner, thick liner, and a layer of mascara. Her cheeks were accentuated with warm peach blush, and her lips were glossed with a nude shade. The dark hair of the Wednesday star fell freely over her shoulders. Ortega posed on the red carpet with director Alex Scharfman.
The horror-comedy, in which the actress starred alongside Paul Rudd, will be released on March 28. Their co-stars include Will Poulter, Téa Leoni, and Richard E. Grant. Ortega was also an executive producer on the project. The plot follows the main character, Ridley, and her father, Elliott, who accidentally hit a unicorn with their car and take it to a secluded estate owned by a wealthy pharmaceutical CEO.
The actress admitted that it was easy working with the Ant-Man actor. “Fortunately, we got along well, we had a few conversations, and we started filming a day or two after meeting,” shared the star of Beetlejuice 2. Paul also had positive impressions of the actress. “We had an experience. Jenna is a daughter in real life, and I’m actually a father! We clicked right away. When you get to film with Jenna, your job is easy because she’s incredible!”
Earlier, Jenna admitted that her character Wednesday Addams significantly influenced her own style. “I’ve definitely always liked wearing all black. I don’t know who wouldn’t like it, it’s just classic. I think everyone looks good in it. Wednesday encouraged me to embrace that side of myself more. I’ve always had a great respect for gothic culture and music, so after getting to know goth culture better and being fascinated by it, I increasingly bring it into my daily life,” noted the Screen Actors Guild Award winner.
