Christina joined the cast of the new series back in March, and it was announced that she’d be playing a new character. Now that the show is out, we know she’s Ms. Thornhill.

With her auburn hair and blunt bangs, it might be easy to overlook Christina if you were looking for someone who looked more like her version of Wednesday back in the ’90s!

Who is Ms. Thornhill? She’s a teacher at Wednesday’s school Nevermore Academy. She’s the botany teacher and forms a bond with Wednesday. Not to spoil too much, but their relationship develops over the course of the season.
