A career beyond an early icon
Christina Ricci was born in Santa Monica, California, in 1980. Her film career began with Mermaids in 1990, followed by her role as Wednesday Addams in The Addams Family and its 1993 sequel.
After Casper and Now and Then, Ricci took on work in films such as The Ice Storm, The Opposite of Sex and Sleepy Hollow. Her career moved from family films into stories with darker or more complicated characters.
In The Matrix Resurrections she appears as Gwyn de Vere, an executive connected to the video game company where Thomas Anderson works. The film is among the titles featuring Ricci currently available on FLM.RED.
On television, Ricci plays Misty Quigley in Yellowjackets and appeared in Wednesday, a new story set around the Addams family. Her return to that world came in a different role from the young Wednesday she had played decades earlier.
