Spoiler Alert: This story contains spoilers for Season 2 Part 1 of “Wednesday.”

After defeating an evil resurrected pilgrim, a hyde and its master in Season 1 of “Wednesday,” the Addams family heroine (Jenna Ortega) finds herself at the center of an even more urgent mystery in Season 2. There’s been a new string of murders in Jericho, and according to one of Wednesday’s psychic visions, her roommate, Enid (Emma Myers), might be next.

Wednesday quickly figures out that she’s dealing with an avian, someone with the ability to control birds who is using them to kill people. She was too late to save Sheriff Galpin (Jamie McShane), who was in the middle of his own investigation when he died, but is able to recover some of his evidence: the obituaries of several outcasts who were patients at the Willow Hill Psychiatric Hospital. Each newspaper clipping is connected on a bulletin board to the name Lois.

The first four episodes of the second season of Wednesday are now streaming on Netflix, and the review embargo lifted early this morning.

For the most part, the critical reception has been positive, although some feel that the second season is a step down in quality from the first. The entire cast - Jenna Ortega is, once again, said to be a major standout - come in for praise, but quite a few reviews mention that an overstuffed, formulaic plot does hold the show back to some extent.

Despite a few negative verdicts, Wednesday season 2 is now "Certified Fresh" at 84% on Rotten Tomatoes.

At the end of the day, if the first season was up your alley, we don't expect any major disappointments here!

Have a read through some reviews at the links below.

Wednesday is back for Season 2 Part 1, and despite the short episode count, Jenna Ortega doesn't miss a beat.

Wednesday is back after a three-year hiatus, and critics say the ghoulish wait was well worth it.

The second season, to be released in two parts on Aug. 6 and Sept. 3, has received mostly glowing reviews, even surpassing the first season's Rotten Tomatoes score by double digits. As of now, the first half of Season 2 stands at 86 percent, compared to just 73 percent for Season 1, which bowed on Nov. 23, 2022. According to critics, the new episodes are "deliciously twisted" and "murderously enjoyable."

Emmy nominee Jenna Ortega returns in season 2 as Wednesday Addams, a goth girl with psychic powers, as she navigates fresh foes and a creepy mystery at Nevermore Academy. The Netflix show is created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, based on Charles Addams' iconic characters, and is produced and directed by Tim Burton.

The sprawling cast includes Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams, Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams,...

It feels bizarre that Wednesday returns at a time when Halloween is still months away. The show that became a runaway Netflix hit — while creatively reinvigorating director Tim Burton and turning Jenna Ortega into a generational star — radiates creepy, kooky and altogether ooky vibes, spinning the Addams Family character into her own Harry Potter-for-goth-kids YA detective series with hugely fun results. But Wednesday’s return at the height of summer speaks to Netflix’s blockbuster approach for the show’s second season — much bigger and starrier, a Stranger Things-like glow-up in scope, with somewhat mixed results.

The not-so-secret weapon in Season 1 was Ortega herself — knockout casting, elevating the material with deliciously deadpan delivery. She remains excellent here, relishing every cutting line. “It’s Addams with two Ds,” she declares early on. “Like ‘padded room’.” We’re reunited with Wednesday during her idea of...

Snap twice, “Wednesday” is back for Season 2, and the cast of Netflix’s “The Addams Family”-inspired fantasy series goes big this time around. Of course, there are plenty of familiar faces returning, including Jenna Ortega as the titular Wednesday Addams and Season 1 breakout Emma Myers as her werewolf bestie, Enid. But there are also a whole bunch of new faces in the mix, from a new principal at Nevermore Academy (Rip Weems) to new members of the Addams Family itself.

There are a lot of characters to keep straight in the massive Season 2 ensemble, so here’s your handy guide to who’s who and who’s new in “Wednesday” Season 2.

Warning: contains spoilers for Season 1 of Wednesday.

A Gothic boarding school especially for outcasts. A gossip-blogging werewolf roommate with a candy-colored bob. A new friend with the power to control insects. A principal who’s a shapeshifter. The protagonist’s most trusted compatriot: a disembodied hand. Yes, she’s being stalked by a monster whose hunting grounds are the woods by her school, but that’s just part of the mystique: Wednesday has made battling for your life look and feel aspirational.

When Wednesday dropped on Netflix way back in November 2022, it arrived to huge pre-release buzz and quickly became a hit, surpassing even Stranger Things. This probably shouldn’t have been a surprise, since Wednesday is spun off from IP that is, fittingly, immortal. Charles Addams’ New Yorker cartoons about the Addams family had already spawned a sitcom, two live-action movies in the ‘90s and two more animated movies...

This article contains spoilers for "Wednesday" season 2.

To the kooky, ooky, and spooky Addams family, a grisly demise sounds like their idea of a good time. Perhaps that's why "Wednesday," the Netflix series which is this era's preeminent "Addams Family" show, isn't stingy with bumping its characters off. In the same way that anyone in the show can be a suspect, given all the horror creature abilities and bad blood between Outcasts and Normies, anyone could become a victim, too. The first season saw a number of people killed at the hands of the monstrous Hyde lurking within Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan). Although Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) eventually dropped her crush on the boy and put a stop to his rampage, Tyler is still lurking in the bowels of Willow Hill sanitarium in Jericho, Vermont during the show's second season.

Tyler does indeed get up to his old murderous tricks...

Plot: Wednesday Addams, returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. This season, Wednesday must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery.

Review: The first season of Wednesday became a massive hit for Netflix despite a quintessentially CW-style approach to storytelling. But, armed with the unique visual style of director Tim Burton and a supporting role from The Addams Family movie star Christina Ricci, Wednesday was anchored by Jenna Ortega’s pitch-perfect take on the macabre teenage protagonist. While the story of Wednesday attending Nevermore Academy felt like a horror-tinged take on Nancy Drew, the series had its charms and easily garnered a second season. After three years of waiting, Wednesday is back with...

Introduced as the timid younger brother of Wednesday, Pugsley Addams could be hiding a major secret that could have serious consequences for characters in Wednesday Season 2. The Netflix hit starring Jenna Ortega in the lead has returned with a second season, bringing back Isaac Ordonez in a much bigger role as the youngest Addams, who appears to have come out of his shell.

And this season might not be ready for the mysterious new version of the character. With his newfound powers and a seat alongside his sister at Nevermore, Pugsley could turn out to be the secret that could change everything.

This post contains spoilers from Wednesday season 2 episode 1 from this point forward.

Long time no see, Wednesday Addams! It's been nearly three years since the Emmy Award-nominated Netflix original series premiered, but Wednesday season 2 has finally arrived. The first episode, aptly titled "Here We Woe Again," kicks off with Wednesday harnessing her psychic abilities with help from Goody's book and taking on a new mystery to solve. She takes it upon herself to solve the Kansas City Scalper cold case.

Somehow still making it through airport security even though she had an arsenal of weapons on her person, Wednesday makes it to Kansas City and confronts the Scalper (Haley Joel Osment). Her psychic vision gives her black tears, and Thing helps her out when the Scalper ties her up in his basement. She returns home after catching the serial killer, but it's time to head back to school at Nevermore Academy.

Did you watch the first season of Netflix’s Wednesday and come away wishing for more mystery and less humor, more of the secondary members of the Addams family and less of Jenna Ortega’s Emmy-nominated performance, more of the supernatural world of outcasts and less of the real world for contrast?

It’s Ok not to remember exactly. Wednesday premiered nearly three years ago, a duration also known as “adolescence” for most of the underaged supporting cast.

Fortunately, and conveniently, few of the specific plot details from that well-received season are all that relevant. There are enough expositional reminders here for a general catch-up, but the truth is that the new season of Wednesday is so generic that my biggest challenge was separating my memory of the first season from nearly identical dynamics that played out in The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Percy Jackson and the Olympians and...

What's to be done about those who are themselves strange and unusual? The typical answer is for culture to either assimilate or reject the outcasts; if their quirks cannot be embraced and worked into more digestible form for the masses, then they must be renounced, laughed at, and diminished. This is the artistic struggle that filmmaker Tim Burton has dealt with for the entirety of his career, and he's been around long enough to have experienced all the facets of issues with trendiness and conformity. For the first half of his career, Burton's oddball traits were resoundingly praised. Then, like his Edward Scissorhands or Oswald Cobblepot, the luster faded, either in his own work or the public's liking of it (or perhaps a mixture of both), and he endured a period of great financial success mixed with ill reception. In the last several years, Burton has appeared to reach...

Wednesday, the fan-favorite, mystery-oriented spin-off/reboot of the long-running Addams Family franchise, has finally returned for a second season on Netflix after three long years of waiting. Indeed, fans have been chomping at the bit for more of Jenna Ortega and Tim Burton’s fresh new take on the beloved Addams daughter, and you can count me amongst them as someone who’s had a soft spot for Charles Addams’ kooky creations since high school.

But with the pedigree of the first season and the long hype cycle for Season 2, can the final product actually live up to those expectations? Right now, I am happy to report that the answer is mostly yes. Season 2 is at least as good as the first season, and by the end I could easily see it being better. Though please bear in mind that this only applies to the first four episodes, as that...

“Here We Woe Again” is an apt title for the Season 2, Part 1, opener of Netflix’s mega-hit “Wednesday.” Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar with Tim Burton in the director’s chair, the series follows Wednesday Addams (a perfectly cast Jenna Ortega) — a macabre, black cloaked teen with psychic abilities. Having spent her summer break honing her prophetic visions and indulging in a game of chicken with a serial killer, Wednesday returns to Nevermore Academy for the fall term. Yet, things aren’t as they once were. A shocking mystery quickly begins to occupy Wednesday’s time, leading her to uncover some haunting secrets concerning Jericho and its history with outcasts. Additionally, a lot more is revealed about the Addams family lore, including the root of Wednesday and Morticia’s (Catherine Zeta-Jones) strained relationship. Full of zing and depth, the season remains just as thrilling as the first.

Having...

A decade ago, in an era before “Stranger Things,” it would have been unthinkable for a show to return after three years off the air and expect its audience to pick up where it left off. “Wednesday,” the popular horror-mystery drama focused on the daughter of the Addams family, is one such case in our changed streaming landscape.

Thankfully, the first four episodes of the much-anticipated second season step up to the plate. It may not reach the heights of “Stranger Things,” but with Tim Burton returning to direct two of the four episodes, it’s a consistently entertaining watch. Jenna Ortega continues to be the show’s secret ingredient, embodying the iconic character with a steely deadpan and hilarious, sardonic one-liners.

What works particularly well in this new season was promised by Ortega herself many full moons ago, when she admitted that Wednesday’s love triangle in the first season made “no sense.

Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have been writing together ever since they met at USC’s Peter Stark producing program in the early ’90s and sold their first script to New Line Cinema.

After countless movies and TV series, this week they premiere Season 2 of their popular series “Wednesday,” executive-produced by Tim Burton, on Netflix. Having sampled the first four episodes, I can attest that Season 2 is even more delicious than Season 1.

For one thing, for budget reasons, the showrunners had to trim some Season 1 subplots, thus relying more heavily on young star Jenna Ortega, now age 22, in the title role of Addams daughter Wednesday, an amateur supernatural detective in her first year at outsider school Nevermore Academy. This time around, with Netflix loosening the purse strings, the series expands with new characters including eager-to-please Nevermore Principal Dort (Steve Buscemi) and Grandmama Hester Frump (Joanna Lumley), while giving more time...

Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) got up to plenty of mischief and adventure in Season 1 of the eponymous Netflix series, created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar.

The coming-of-age series centering the young heroine as she carves out her own path amongst her Outcast peers at Nevermore Academy had plenty of mystery and investigation, none of which daunted her. Some might even say it was the social scene at school that haunted her more than a mysterious monster lurking in the woods, students keeping secrets from her and those very obviously and vocally out to get her.

For those needing a refresher about what happened in Wednesday Season 1 ahead of the arrival of Season 2 Part 1, below lies a recap of the most salient plot points.

Here we go (or should we say woe) again! Netflix's smash hit Wednesday is back for Season 2, promising the return of familiar faces, fresh threats, and thrilling new mysteries at Nevermore Academy. And now we're learning even more about Lady Gaga's aptly titled song, "Dance Dead," that will premiere during the sophomore season.

It's been nearly three years since Wednesday debuted in Nov. of 2022, quickly becoming Netflix's most-watched English-language series of all time. Based on the iconic character Wednesday Addams created by Charles Addams, the show was brought to life by creator/showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, with Emmy nominee Jenna Ortega starring as the unforgettable title character.

Here's everything you need to know about the second season of Wednesday.

Season 2 synopsis

Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), returns to prowl the gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await.

Just when we thought 2025 had already given us all the dragons, magic, and epic quests we could handle, the fantasy gods said, “Not so fast!” If you're anything like me, your watchlist is likely overflowing. But let’s be honest, there’s always room for a few more sword-wielding heroes, mythical creatures, and unforgettable adventures.

With the year drawing to a close, various streaming platforms are gearing up to release new seasons of some of their most beloved fantasy series. In fact, fans have been eagerly awaiting the return of three particular shows, and the anticipation is reaching a fever pitch.

If you're wondering what these three must-see series are, all you need to do is continue reading because we shared the titles as well as their official premiere dates below.

Note: One of the shows on this list does not have a premiere date just yet. However, it's been confirmed for a 2025 release.

An Oxford-set college rom-com from the guy behind The Inbetweeners; the return of one of Netflix’s biggest ever shows; Genndy Tartakovsky’s latest adult animated project; Vanessa Kirby’s return to more intimate dramas about the human condition; a documentary that promised to shed new light on the Jussie Smollett hate crime incident; and a murder mystery film featuring several British and Irish acting icons are some of the highlights among the new films and series hitting Netflix in August.

Kicking off August is the rom-com My Oxford Year, which focuses on the tried and trusted formula of a young American girl heading to stuffy old Europe and finding love with some impossibly handsome and terribly charming guy, so it’s almost guaranteed to find a huge audience. In this instance, Sofia Carson plays Anna, an ambitious American student at Oxford University whose life is changed when she meets...

Netflix is delivering Wednesday Season 2 in a two-part format beginning August 6, 2025. Ahead of its release, the second season will include a total of eight episodes, divided into four-episode halves, with streamlined release promises, bite-sized suspense perfect for binge-watching.

Bringing back Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, the upcoming season will have an increased focus on the Addams family. Premiering with the episode titled Here We Woe Again, the first episode is written by Alfred Gough and Miles Miller, with Tim Burton directing. Here is a full breakdown of the episode count and who is behind the next chapter of Wednesday Addams’ story.

It won't be long until Wednesday Season 2 enters Netflix, and the streaming giant has revealed the titles for the show's Part One. Just like the previous season, these titles are filled with woe. And while the second half has yet to reveal its names, these names tease what's to come for this gothic coming-of-age drama.

The episode titles were revealed on Netflix's Tudum page. They are Episode 1: "Here We Woe Again," Episode 2: "The Devil You Woe," Episode 3: "Call of the Woe," and Episode 4: "If These Woes Could Talk." Wednesday Season 2 features the return of Jenna Ortega as a teenage Wednesday Addams, as she enters her second year at Nevermore Academy. But she's not alone, as also enrolled is her brother, Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez). However, her second year in school won't be easy, as one of the big mysteries that this next installment has in store is...

We're less than a week until Wednesday returns. The Tim Burton Netflix horror comedy series based on the beloved Addams Family franchise took the world by storm in 2022. The second season’s marketing campaign has doubled down on the madness and spooky crossovers with popular brands. Now, with just days to go, Funko has conjured up their latest Wednesday Pop wave.

Based on Season 2, there are five new Wednesday Pop figures:Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers), Morticia Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones), Pugsley Addams (Isaac Ordonez), Bianca Barclay (Joy Sunday), and the titular teenage miscreant. While most of these characters have received Pops in the past, there are a lot of chillingly fun details with these updates. This includes Enid’s new hairstyle, Pugsley in his Nevermore Academy uniform, and Wednesday crossing her arms in disapproval. She must have seen all the merchandise her character has received in the last three years.

The Addams...

Jenna Ortega is bringing Wednesday Addams back to Netflix, and she’s not coming alone. Season 2 of Wednesday is set to arrive in two parts, Part 1 on August 6 and Part 2 on September 3. This time, Nevermore Academy will be filled with new enemies, strange mysteries, and more family drama than Wednesday would ever want.

While promoting the upcoming season, Jenna Ortega and director Tim Burton have been making stops around the world. Netflix just dropped a striking photo of the two of them in Paris with the playful caption: Jenna and Tim in Paris..

Before their Paris visit, the cast had already gathered in London for the big Season 2 world premiere.

Speaking to Netflix’s Tudum, co-showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar teased what’s ahead for the gloomy heroine. “This season, Wednesday’s...

Wednesday Addams' sophomore year is right around the corner, but not everyone will be happy about what is coming. In fact, quite the opposite, as Netflix has taken the opportunity to remind people of just how woeful WednesdaySeason 2 will be by sharing a dreadful glimpse at Part 1, which premieres on Aug. 6, 2025. The streamer shared several new photos from the second season alongside the episode titles, offering some additional clues about the mysteries that await the show's titular teen as she returns to Nevermore Academy.

The gallery of images (shared below) features some instantly recognizable fan-favorites from Wednesday's first season, as several stars return to reprise their roles alongside Jenna Ortega's spooky and kooky lead character. Among those pictured are Emma Myers, who is back on the scene as Wednesday's quirky and colorful roommate Enid Sinclair, as well as Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams, Moosa Mostafa as Eugene Ottinger, Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams,...

Jenna Ortega wears a daring look while attending the Wednesday season two premiere held at Central Hall, Westminster on Wednesday (July 30) in London.

The 22-year-old star and executive producer of the series wore an Ashi Studio look, featuring a “beige semi-sheer snakeskin-textured latex waist corset with back lacing, paired with a tight high-neck top and a long mermaid-cut skirt finished with asymmetrical ruffled trim.”

She was also joined at the premiere by her parents Natalie and Edward.

Also hitting the purple carpet were Jenna‘s co-stars Emma Myers, Joy Sunday, Georgie Farmer, Luis Guzman, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Isaac Ordonez, Victor Dorobantu, Moosa Mostafa, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Oliver Watson, Gracy Goldman, Joonas Suotamo and Fred Armisen, plus season two newcomers Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter, Noah B Taylor, Kyle Hixon, Joanna Lumley and Frances O’Connor. Showrunners and creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, and director/executive producer Tim Burton were also in attendance.

Season 2 of Wednesday hasn’t even dropped yet, but fans already have their eyes on Season 3. The good news? It’s officially happening, and it’ll also be made up of eight episodes. Writers are already deep into developing the next chapter. The not-so-clear part? Whether Tim Burton will return to direct.

Series co-creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have confirmed via Collider that Burton’s involvement depends entirely on his schedule. He directed four episodes each in Seasons 1 and 2, but as of now, nothing’s locked in for Season 3. Millar said:

It’s always great to have Tim here. And the fact that he did four episodes in the first season and four this season was amazing. You know, so, it just depends on his schedule. I think that’s always the thing. He loves to do it. He has such a rapport with the cast. We’ve had a five-year collaboration with him,...

Creators and showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, as well as director and executive producer Tim Burton also took part in the photocall.

The week before, Tim attended a Wednesday fan event during the Giffoni Film Festival on Friday (July 25).

Joy Sunday, Georgie Farmer and Isaac Ordonez recently paid a visit to the Wrocław Museum of Architecture for Outcast Prom, where “fans from all over Poland congregated to celebrate the upcoming new season.” They also took part in a Q&a at the New Horizons Festival.

When it came out in late 2022, Wednesday was a major success. The series, starring Jenna Ortega in the titular role as the popular Addams Family character, ended up becoming Netflix's most watched show in the English language.

Looking at its success, Netflix immediately saw an opportunity to start a franchise. After Season 2 was confirmed, Netflix revealed that they are interested in a Wednesday spinoff starring Fred Armisen's Uncle Fester. The wait between Wednesday Seasons 1 and 2 was long, and the show's creators, Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, just weighed in on their plans for the spinoff during an interview with Collider.

Wednesday is officially coming back with Season 2 on Aug. 6, although Netflix isn't releasing the full season at once. Fans are impatiently waiting to find out more about Wednesday's adventures at Nevermore, especially as it was just confirmed that the show will return with Season 3.

It’s not a priority at the moment because,...

Get ready for some more delicious dark humor with a side of sorrow in the much-anticipated second season of Wednesday. Yes, you heard it right, after a long wait of nearly three years, Wednesday is returning for a second season, and that’s not all, as Netflix has already renewed Tim Burton-backed series for a third season.

Based on Charles Addams‘ characters of the same name, the coming-of-age gothic supernatural dark comedy-drama series was created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar. In Season 2, Wednesday will return to Nevermore Academy, where a supernatural mystery awaits her.

Looking beyond Season 2, Percy Jackson is hoping to have more in common with Only Murders in the Building and less with Wednesday. While there are a lot of differences between the two shows, one major one is that Only Murders pumps out a new season every year, while Wednesday has taken three years to produce its second season.

In an extensive interview with Entertainment Weekly, Percy Jackson executive producer Craig Silverstein expressed hope that there would be no more two-year gaps between seasons of the Disney+ original. Before the era of streaming, fans could expect a new season of their favorite show every year, with the only hiatus being between May, when the season finale aired, and September, when the new season kicked off. However, as streaming originals exploded in popularity (and budget), the wait for a new season began to grow, with two or three gaps becoming the new normal.

Updated with the latest: Wednesday’s sophomore season has become the latest to get the two-part release treatment from Netflix.

After the runaway success of Netflix and Tim Burton’s Addams Family stand-alone series Wednesday starring Jenna Ortega, the streamer renewed it for a second season in January 2023. That decision came less than three months after the eight-episode Season 1 premiered. It eventually became the most-watched original series ever on the streamer, with more than 252 million views to date, far surpassing Stranger Things Season 4, Dahmer, and Season 1 of Bridgerton on the all-time list.

Season 1 received 12 Emmy nominations, including for Ortega in Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. She became just the third Latina ever to be nominated in a leading actress category. The series won four Emmys, though Ortega lost out to Abbott Elementary‘s Quinta Brunson on Emmy night.

When will Season 2 be released?

Netflix has deemed Season 2 of Tim...

Another Wednesday has come around, and the Netflix streaming service has just dropped some big news about their hit Addams Family series Wednesday! Wednesday season 2 started filming in Ireland last May, wrapping production at the end of November. The streaming service recently announced that season 2 of the show will be split into two batches. The first part will start streaming on August 6th. The second half will come along on September 3rd, yet another Wednesday. Now, two weeks ahead of the premiere of season 2, it has been confirmed (via The Hollywood Reporter) that Netflix has officially ordered Wednesday season 3! It’s also said that “a spinoff series is in early discussions.”

Details on the potential spinoff are being kept top secret for now. The only quotes related to that project are “It’s something we’re definitely noodling; there are other characters we can look at” and “There’s a...

Netflix is staying in the Wednesday game.

The streamer has ordered a third season of the supernatural comedy series, which stars Jenna Ortega in the Addams Family reimagining. Plans are also in the works for a spin-off series of the Tim Burton-exec produced show, which was created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, according to THR.

This comes ahead of the Season 2 launch on Netflix on August 6 and after Season 1 became the most-watched original series ever on the streamer, with more than 250 million views. It also received 12 Emmy nominations, including for Ortega in Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. The show is therefore undoubtedly one of the streamer’s biggest hits.

Wednesday stars Ortega as the titular Wednesday, who is expelled from her school and sent to a private academy for outcasts. Gwendoline Christie, Emma Myers and Riki Lindhome also star. The show has made stars of the likes of Myers,...

Good news would make Wednesday Addams feel like harming someone to relish the emotional whiplash, but this bit would surely be exciting. Ahead of the premiere of the much-anticipated second season of Netflix's hit series Wednesday, The Hollywood Reporter reveals that the show has been renewed for Season 3. Series director Tim Burton and star Jenna Ortega shared the news. The news of the early renewal, while surprising, doesn't come as a total shock, given the show's immense popularity on the streaming platform. Wednesday Season 1 stands proud as the most-watched season of a Netflix show, making it the most popular Netflix original series of all time. The show has amassed 252.1 million views so far, and this number is expected to increase when Season 2 debuts its first part on August 6.

The Hollywood Reporter also posed the question of the show's longevity, but the executive producer and actor did not have a definite answer.

“Wednesday” Season 3 is happening.

Netflix confirmed the news ahead of the Season 2 premiere of the Tim Burton and Jenna Ortega dark comedy. The upcoming second season will be released in two parts set to premiere on Aug. 6 and Sept. 3.

It’s not surprising that Netflix would be eager to give this series more episodes. “Wednesday” Season 1 still ranks as the No. 1 most-watched English-language Netflix original of all time, securing 252.1 million views in its first 90 days. It’s also the second most-watched Netflix show of all time behind the first season of “Squid Game.”

Based on the titular character by Charles Addams, “Wednesday” is a reimagining of The Addams Family created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar. The first season revolves around Wednesday attempting to solve a murder at her school.

Just two weeks ahead of its Season 2 premiere, Wednesday has scored an early renewal for Season 3, Netflix announced Wednesday.

Showrunner Alfred Gough and Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria also commented on the Wednesday spinoff that’s currently in the works (an initial report claimed it would center around Fred Armisen’s Uncle Fester), though official details remain a secret for now. “It’s something we’re definitely noodling,” said Gough. “There are other characters we can look at.”

The beloved Addams Family spinoff, Wednesday, debuted on Netflix in late 2022. It immediately became a hit, rising to the tops of the charts and becoming Netflix's most-watched title in English.

The streaming service renewed the show for Season 2 after its massive success, but fans had to wait a long time before it premiered. Ahead of the new season, set to return on Aug. 6 with Part 1 of the upcoming Season 2, Netflix has officially decided what happens next. According to Variety, Netflix has officially renewed Wednesday for Season 3. The streamer has yet to officially announce the news.

Alfred Gough and Miles Millar created Wednesday, which is based on Charles Addams' character Wednesday Addams. The series has Tim Burton as one of the executive producers, alongside the creators, and stars Jenna Ortega as the titular character.

“Wednesday” has been renewed for Season 3 at Netflix.

The news comes before the second season premiere of the Jenna Ortega-led supernatural comedy, which is the most popular English-language Netflix series of all time.

“Wednesday” stars Ortega as the darkly funny Wednesday Addams, who is expelled from her school after dumping piranhas into the pool, and is transferred to a private academy for outcasts.

The series also stars Gwendoline Christie as the shapeshifting principal of Wednesday’s new school, Emma Myers as her werewolf roommate Enid, and Riki Lindhome as her school therapist.

The cast is rounded out by Jamie McShane, Hunter Doohan, Joy Sunday, Georgie Farmer, Naomi J. Ogawa, Moosa Mostafa, Christina Ricci, Steve Buscemi, Victor Dorobantu, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Billie Piper, Isaac Ordonez, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter, Noah Taylor, Luis Guzmán and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

“Wednesday” became an awards magnet after its first season exploded on Netflix in 2022, garnering four Emmy awards.

The horror genre is on a hot streak on the big screen. However, where television is concerned, Wednesday looks to ignite the fuse even further when Season 2 debuts on Netflix later this summer. The trailers for the Tim Burton series have promised a much more horror-centric venture ahead, while the new merchandise has seen the popular Addams Familycharacter in some shocking scenarios. This includes Wednesday's latest crossover with American Girl Doll.

Wednesday will be reimagined in the iconic American Girl Doll look. The 18-inch figure has Wednesday in her iconic black and white polka dot dress. She also has a ton of accessories, like a necklace, a Thing figurine, two faux piranha bags and a certificate of authenticity. The box she comes in has been given a moody purple Wednesday makeover as well. The figure is limited to approximately 6,000 pieces and will retail for $295 Usd. This is the second major crossover in as many weeks,...

With the story growing darker and deeper, it’s the perfect time to delve deep into the Addams family tree. As the dates creep closer, fans are eager to dive deep into the eerie world of Nevermore Academy. And, of course, the eerie family at its center.

The arrival of the Wednesday season 2 trailer raises several questions, from Addams family secrets to the reveal that one of Wednesday's most trusted friends may not be alive for much longer, and Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) herself could be responsible.

Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones), Gomez (Luis Guzmán), and Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez) are all set to make a splash at Nevermore Academy as they step into larger roles in the series, but perhaps the standout moment of the trailer is the revelation that Wednesday has a vision that she will eventually be the cause of Enid's untimely death.

From the look of the trailer, season 2 may be focusing on Wednesday and Enid's relationship as the core of the series. The season 2 trailer suggests that the season may be mostly about Wednesday's quest to save Enid (Emma Myers) from a deadly fate.

But Enid's questionable destiny is not the only thing that Wednesday...

Morticia swears she won’t let history repeat itself in the official trailer for Netflix’s Wednesday season two. Apparently the titular character has a vision of Enid dying and believes it’s all her fault. Morticia’s determined that won’t happen on her watch, and Wednesday promises she’ll save her roomie or die trying.

Jenna Ortega returns as the delightfully morbid and gloomy Wednesday Addams in the new trailer for Wednesday season 2. She's joined by the rest of the Addams family, including the return of Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, Fred Armisen as Lurch. and Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams—who begins his own Nevermore Academy journey. The Addams family will expand this season, introducing equally kooky additions such as Absolutely Fabulous star Joanna Lumley as Grandmama Hester Frump.

Ortega herself has promised that season 2 will forgo the cheesy love triangle stuff in favor of a more horror-focused season, and the trailer does a great job of highlighting the tonal shift. It appears that the fan-favorite friendship between Wednesday and her roommate/bestie Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers) will be front and center this time around. I'm sure those who ship the "Wenclair" pairing will be happy to see how...

Netflix has finally dropped the trailer for Wednesday Season 2 Part 1, and things are looking gloomier, deadlier, and far more complicated for our favorite gothic sleuth. Returning to Nevermore Academy, Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) finds herself entangled in another dark mystery—one that threatens her closest relationships and even her grip on reality.

Enid’s Life Hangs in the Balance

At the heart of the new trailer lies a terrifying revelation: Wednesday envisions the death of her roommate and best friend, Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers), and believes she may be the cause. “Enid dies, and it’s all my fault,” Wednesday admits, setting the stage for a high-stakes season. The bond between the werewolf and the clairvoyant will be pushed to its limits as Wednesday races against time to save Enid from her ominous fate.

“Enid and Wednesday understand each other now on a deeper level,” Myers shares, hinting at a more emotionally layered friendship.
