Marla Singer is played by the phenomenal actress Helena Bonham Carter. She is known for her role as Bellatrix in the Harry Potter franchise and her involvement in former partner and cult classics director Tim Burton's films.

Burton has recently stepped back into the limelight with his direction of the hit series "Wednesday." The main character, Wednesday, is played by Jenna Ortega, who, like Carter, embodies the same aesthetic Burton seems to gravitate towards when casting actresses.

This aesthetic includes significantly big eyes, a unique look, sharp bone structure, and dark features.
