Calling all Addams Family fanatics! Are you craving more Wednesday Addams after that epic season 1 finale? We feel you. Netflix’s dark comedy reboot took the world by storm, and season 2 is officially brewing at Nevermore Academy. Buckle up, because we’re spilling all the latest tea (or, should we say, nightshade?) on what to expect from Wednesday’s next adventure.
When is Wednesday Season 2 Coming Out?
Sadly, we’ll have to wait a bit longer than expected. Thanks to the 2023 Hollywood strikes, filming got pushed back, and Wednesday won’t be gracing our screens until 2025 at the earliest. But hey, that just gives you more time to rewatch season 1 and analyze every creepy detail!
Filming is about to begin!
Mark your calendars, because cameras are set to roll on Wednesday, season 2, in late April 2024. This time, the production is moving from Romania to the spooky shores of Ireland. Don’t worry, though; Nevermore Academy will still be its usual hauntingly charming self.
Who’s back for Season 2?
Get ready for a familiar Nevermore crew! Of course, the incomparable Jenna Ortega is returning as our delightfully morbid protagonist, Wednesday Addams. Joining her will likely be:
Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers): Wednesday’s colorful (literally) best friend.
Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan): Will this Hyde-turned-enemy seek revenge?
The Addams Family Crew: Expect to see more Morticia and Gomez Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán), along with the rest of the kooky Addams clan, in recurring roles.
New Cast Members Join the Nevermore Fun!
Season 2 is welcoming some exciting new faces! Emmy Award winner Steve Buscemi will portray the new principal of Nevermore Academy, while Thandiwe Newton (Westworld) joins the cast in a yet-to-be-revealed role. We can’t wait to see what these talented actors bring to the Addams Family universe!
Jenna Ortega Gets More Power (Besides Her Psychic Abilities!)
Move over, Gomez! In a move that proves Wednesday is a force to be reckoned with, Jenna Ortega is now a producer on the show. This means she’ll have more creative control over Wednesday’s future, ensuring her character stays authentic and delightfully dark.
What Can We Expect From the Story?
Netflix is keeping the plot details under wraps for now, but fear not, fellow detectives! Ortega hinted at a season packed with more horror elements and a deeper dive into Wednesday’s dark side. There’s also going to be more action, one-liners, and possibly even a new Addams family member joining the twisted fun!
Is There a Wednesday Spinoff Coming?
While nothing is official yet, rumors are swirling about a potential Uncle Fester spinoff. Could this be the start of a full-blown Addams Family cinematic universe? Only time will tell!
Will Tim Burton Be Back to Direct?
The gothic maestro, Tim Burton, directed the first four episodes of Wednesday. While it’s unconfirmed if he’ll be back behind the camera for season 2, he remains an executive producer. Here’s hoping he gets bitten by the directing bug again!
So there you have it, Wednesday fans! Season 2 might be a while away, but with a killer cast, a spooky new location, and the promise of more horror and hilarity, the wait will definitely be worth it. Stay tuned for more updates, and in the meantime, remember – never trust a sunny day!
