Jenna Ortega Trades Beach Goth for Boho (But Still Goth)

En route to Cockatoo Island, she toted a black Valentino Garavani Panthea, a leather patchwork bag with chunky gold chain handles and a silver stud-embellished shoulder strap. She also rewore a pair of knee-high lace-up Miista boots (which she donned for a Wednesday screening in New York earlier this month) outfitted with a square toe and angular wedge heel. (Perhaps her greatest accessory of all? The pair of wired headphones that nearly got lost in the jumble of faux fur.)
While she's offered us no shortage of Wednesday Addams-inspired looks, dressed in an eclectic mix of lace, faux fur, and statement boots, Jenna Ortega could just as easily play the part of Penny Lane's goth cousin.

Tristan Rogers,' General Hospital' Star, Dies at 79
The Australian actor began playing Robert Scorpio on the daytime soap opera in 1980 Tristan Rogers has died at the age of 79. The Australian actor was best known for playing Robert Scorpio on General Hospital. He first joined the soap opera in 1980. His longtime manager, Meryl Soodak, confirmed his death to ABC 7 Eyewitness News on Friday, Aug. 15. It was revealed in July that Rogers has been diagnosed with cancer. Soodak told the outlet that Rogers' General Hospital role "meant everything to him." 'He loved being Scorpio and he created that role from nothing,' Soodak continued. 'He was supposed to work a day and he ended up making it into something huge. He was just a genuinely loyal, kind human being and he loved his family." PEOPLE has reached out to Rogers' manager and the General Hospital team for comment. Rogers was born in Melbourne in 1946. He left school in 1964 and eventually started a rock band with his friends. At 21, he turned to modeling and commercials to make money. Then he decided to become an actor — with no experience. 'As far as I was concerned, it was a way to make a bit of money. That's all,' he told in 2022. Many of his earliest roles came on Australian television. He appeared on the Aussie soaps Bellbird, Number 96 in 1974 and The Box in 1975. He also appeared in a few British films, including 1972's Four Dimensions of Greta. Rogers moved to the United States in 1980 and shortly after was cast as Robert Scorpio on General Hospital. Robert was a spy for the fictional World Security Bureau and later served as the police commissioner and district attorney of Port Charles. The character was good friends with Luke Spencer (played by Anthony Geary) and, in 1981, was part of Luke's wedding to Laura (Genie Francis) as Luke's best man. The wedding brought in 30 million viewers and remains the highest-rated soap opera episode in U.S. TV history. 'I didn't know at the time the importance of General Hospital; it was just one more job for me,' he told Soap Opera Digest in 2020 about his casting. 'But it was really exciting, to be fresh off the boat and walk into this role. Of course, after that, everywhere I went, people would go, 'You're on General Hospital? That's the hottest thing in the country! You're working with Luke and Laura? Oh, my God!'. . . . I got caught up in the General Hospital tidal wave and just got swept away by it.' Robert eventually became a fan-favorite character and was one of the show's leading men. He was killed off in 1992 and Rogers departed the series. But — as often happens on soaps — Robert returned, alive, in 2006, when the show brought back many popular characters from the '80s. "I think this character will follow me to my grave," he told The New York Times at the time. Rogers continued to make sporadic appearances on General Hospital throughout the next decade, and since 2019 had appeared as a recurring character. 'I've seen this show at its best and at something less than that,' he told PEOPLE in 2023 for the show's 60th anniversary. In 2008, Rogers took the character to the General Hospital spin-off General Hospital: Night Shift, where Robert learned he had colon cancer and reconnected with his family. 'This [storyline] was about the deconstruction of an iconic character done in a way it hadn't been done before,' he told Entertainment Weekly at the time. 'Characters like mine don't get colon cancer. They get shot, they get beaten up, they get hit by trains. They don't get colon cancer. It's not very glamorous. I thought it was a hell of a challenge, more than the usual fare that you're given going into this: Go through the investigation, find the bad guys, have a gunfight, get a schmooze….This was a whole different animal.' He added, 'So I thought, maybe along the way, if somebody watches this and sees what we're doing, they might go out and get tested. And if we inspired that, then it's a bonus.' Reflecting on the dominance of soap operas — and their decline — he said in an interview for the 2011 book The Survival of Soap Opera, 'This is not a genre that will be around in another 50 years… in many respects, it isn't necessary. They have made their mark, and almost every type of medium owes something to the way the soaps have been put together, whether they want to admit it or not.' Rogers' other roles included an arc on The Young and the Restless from 2010 to 2011, as well as the TV series Fast Track and Babylon 5. He also did voice over work, most notably in the 1990 Disney film The Rescuers Down Under, and won a Daytime Emmy for his performance in the 2019–2020 Prime Video series Studio City. Rogers married Barbra Meale in 1974, and they divorced in 1984. He briefly dated his General Hospital costar (and on-screen love interest) Emma Samms, but they split in 1985 when she left the show. He married Teresa Parkerson in 1995. They share two children, Sara and Cale. Rogers is survived by his wife and children. Read the original article on People

A Nostalgic ‘Addams Family' Prop Could Join Your Spooky, Ooky Collection
The Addams Family has come a long way since Charles Addams' paper cartoons debuted in 1938 and is currently in its Gen Z era incarnation, thanks to director Tim Burton. Still, the real ones know that before Wednesday on Netflix introduced us to Jenna Ortega as the acerbic teen and explored her mystery-laden life in dark academia, Christina Ricci made her a '90s icon. Propstore is rolling out a standout piece of nostalgia for The Addams Family as part of its upcoming Entertainment Memorabilia Auction: a silly and spooky wooden children's dinosaur toy that only an Addams or Addams fan could love. The morbidly adorable toy joins other highly coveted pop culture treasures such as Darth Vader's lightsaber from Star Wars and a whip from Indiana Jones. The green bug-eyed piece was featured in Barry Sonnenfeld's 1991 film The Addams Family. It can be seen in a scene where Wednesday (Ricci) was playing with it to keep herself entertained while we get Fester's fabricated backstory during a pivotal part of the film. Propstore's official description of the piece informs potential buyers of its rarity: 'This production-made toy, a plastic dinosaur on wheels with googly eyes, painted green with dark green spikes and a red mouth, shows signs of age and filming use, including pitting, chipping, striations, cracking, and wheel scratches. It measures approximately 18″ x 6.5″ x 6″ (45.75 cm x 16.75 cm x 15.25 cm)' and it's estimated to be getting a winning bid somewhere in the ballpark of $2,000–$4,000. However, with the character of Wednesday being all the rage again thanks to the Netflix show's return, it could go for much higher. The auction takes place in early September; find out more, including how to bid, here. Want more io9 news?
