Prepare yourself, fans of the macabre: “Wednesday” has been given the go-ahead for a second season. On January 6, Netflix released a brief teaser that featured Jenna Ortega as the titular Wednesday along with clips from the show and fan gatherings. Lady Gaga’s “Bloody Mary,” which got linked to the show on TikTok, served as the soundtrack for the video as well. The video clip on Netflix announced that “the worldwide phenomenon will return for season two.”
With a tweet shared a day earlier on January 5, Netflix hinted at the continuation of the popular Addams Family series by sharing a scene of Wednesday (Ortega) typing from the season finale. She ends her novel manuscript with “The End” and a question mark, and Netflix simply titled the clip “???????”
Given that “Wednesday” has been a smash hit since its November 2022 debut, it was clear that Netflix would indeed renew the show. The series was once again the most watched program on the streamer’s list of English-language TV programs as of Jan. 3. After numerous viewers imitated Ortega’s famous dance, the show gained two 2023 Golden Globe nominations and became popular on TikTok.
She Refused to Say: “I Was Blown Away” Alfred Gough and Miles Millar’s “Wednesday” was based on the Addams Family concept by cartoonist Charles Addams. Tim Burton helmed the first four episodes of the Netflix series. Ortega will be back on the program when it resumes, and it’s conceivable that the majority of the cast members who survived season one with her will also return to Nevermore Academy. These actors include Emma Myers as Enid Sinclair and Joy Sunday as Bianca Barclay. Along with Victor Dorobantu as the Thing, the show also stars Luis Guzmán as Gomez, Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley, Fred Armisen as Uncle Fester, and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia. What day Netflix plans to release the second season has not yet been made public.
In an interview with “Entertainment Tonight” on November 30, Ortega expressed her goals for season two. She remarked, “I kind of want her to be darker.” “There are many lines about her saving the school and doing anything, but in my opinion, her primary motivation with the monster is competitiveness. I want her to get more involved in the details and stop playing things so safe. ‘Man, how’s this guy doing this?’ sort of feeling”
“I guess I want it to go down an antihero stream instead of a traditional hero,” Ortega continued. Well, whatever she has in mind, we’re ready for it.
