Wednesday star lands role in new "love triangle" dark comedy
Wednesday star Joy Sunday has landed a role in a new dark comedy centred around a love triangle.
Variety reports that the actor, who plays Bianca Barclay in the Addams Family series and appears in Dear White People, will star in limited series DTF. St Louis for HBO.
She's one of two new names, alongside Abbott Elementary's Chris Perfetti, joining already confirmed cast members Jason Bateman, Linda Cardellini, David Harbour, and Richard Jenkins. The duo will be playing characters Jodie and Tiger Tiger, respectively.
The official logline calls the show "A limited series about a love triangle between three adults experiencing middle-age malaise, that leads to one of them ending up dead."

It was recently confirmed that the series will be seven episodes long, and is currently in pre-production. Details beyond that are being kept under wraps at the moment.
Meanwhile, Wednesday's second season wrapped up filming in December, and is set to welcome a bunch of new cast members, including Scoop's Billie Piper, Fool Me Once's Joanna Lumley, Boardwalk Empire's Steve Buscemi and Westworld's Thandiwe Newton.
There's also Scream's Heather Matarazzo, Star Wars' Joonas Suotamo, Kingdom Hearts' Haley Joel Osment, Law & Order's Noah Taylor, Return to Silent Hill's Evie Templeton, The Handmaid's Tale's Owen Painter, and actual Lady Gaga.

Jenna Ortega is back not only as lead actor, but she's also a producer this time around, something she greatly enjoyed.
"It's been the best," she said. "I've never really done that on a TV show before and we had talked about it first season. And it's so nice being a part of these conversations, because I love what I do and I love my job, but I'm able to be a part of the background stuff.
"I get to decide, like, how blue somebody's gonna be, or where the brains go on the floor, what prosthetics look like," she quipped. "It's so exciting. It's so much fun, actually. I'm learning so much. It's so informative."
Wednesday streams on Netflix, with season 2 on the way.
