Netflix's biggest new movie added is a controversial Jenna Ortega film

While Everything but you With Netflix expected to dominate Netflix's top 10 movie charts for several weeks, the service has just added a new film starring another young star that's making a big splash. And probably the most famous Netflix actress. That would be Wednesday herself, Jenna Ortega.

The movie is Miller's girlwhere Ortega played a student who has a romantic relationship with her professor, played by The Office/The HobbitThis is Martin Freeman. When this film was first introduced, it caused quite a stir, with heated Ortega scenes circulating on the internet.

However, the film itself…despite its initial high profile, isn't very good. Miller's girl has a 29% rating on Rotten Tomatoes from critics and a not much better 42% from fans. Plus a dismal 5.2/10 on IMDB.

Ortega's non-Wednesday The roles since this series' debut have been hit or miss. She was part of the Scream VI Ensemble (an important part, as it turns out) with a score of 76% (even though she just dropped out of the sequel). But also her other film Miller's girl, Finest kindhas a 30% critic score and probably few have heard of it since it's a Paramount Plus original.

Ortega literally has six more film and television projects planned for the next few years, including one high-profile project Beetlejuice Beetlejuice The…Beetlejuice Sequel, which will see Michael Keaton return to the role alongside Ortega.

Netflix is ​​literally dying to get it Wednesday I'll be returning to the screen in season two, and I'm wondering if Ortega's busy schedule might be a little problematic. However, I have to assume that she clearly prioritizes her highest profile project. Many may not realize it, but over time Wednesday Season 1 is the most-watched single season on Netflix of all time, surpassing even the previous season of Stranger Things. 252 million views, 1.7 billion hours watched. It's crazy and it's no wonder that Netflix is ​​giving the second season top priority. So far we've heard about the Season 2 cast including Steve Buscemi and Thandiwe Newton, so things are apparently taking shape.

As for Miller's girl, It entered the charts at number 4 and I bet it could go higher (although it won't beat). Everyone but you). It doesn't seem worth your time even if you like Ortega, but Netflix won't tell you that, with its obtuse and quality-sapping rating system for its films and series. But make your own judgement.
