WEDNESDAY Season 2: All We Know So Far

Wednesday’s World: The Return of Our Favorite Gothic Heroine

With fingers poised to snap twice, the beloved Addams icon is almost back on our screens. Though not instant, we are eagerly waiting for the return of Netflix’s Wednesday. Featuring Jenna Ortega’s razor-sharp one-liners, season two promises more of that eerie charm. As season one concluded, Wednesday and her crew took down Laurel Gates. Meanwhile, Tyler is plotting his escape from custody. The halls of Nevermore Academy remain silent until further notice, but the real intrigue lies ahead.

Now, season two tests our endurance, daring us to a stare-off with Jenna Ortega. Spoiler alert: she’ll likely win. Here’s a sneak peek into the evolving world of Wednesday’s adventures.

Plot Twists and Turns

The plot details of Wednesday season two remain enveloped in mystery. It’s obvious, though, that Wednesday, Enid, and Xavier will return to Nevermore. The ominous presence of a stalker still looms over Wednesday, threatening her life. Once again, the cryptic town of Jericho hides many secrets. In a recent Emmy appearance, Jenna Ortega revealed intriguing tidbits. The upcoming season sways heavily into horror, boasting movie-like episodes brimming with snappy dialogue.

“It’s really, really exciting,” Jenna teased. “Wednesday needs some character evolution. She’s wonderful because she refuses to change.” Romance takes a backseat this time, allowing the show’s mystery to take the wheel. Episode one bears the title "Here We Woe Again," heralding a signature blend of mystery and humor.

The prospect of another iconic dance scene remains uncertain. During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Ortega confessed her apprehensions about returning. “It’s been years since the first season. Filming started back in Romania ages ago,” she shared. “Luckily, with the costume by Colleen Atwood and no expressions on my face, I easily slipped back into character.”

Behind the Lens

Jenna Ortega isn’t just in front of the camera. She joins Tim Burton and others as an executive producer. Alfred Gough and Miles Millar retain their roles as co-showrunners. In May 2024, production rolled cameras in Ireland, although the directors remain under wraps.

Netflix heralds new additions to the crew, introducing Christopher Lloyd, Steve Buscemi, and Thandiwe Newton. Buscemi plays Barry Dort, Nevermore’s new principal. The guest list expands with esteemed names like Joanna Lumley, set to portray Grandmama.

The Not-So-Distant Release Date

As cameras roll, Wednesday season two eyes an April 2024 start in Ireland. Fingers crossed, viewers might indulge in the oddball narrative come 2025. The countdown begins; the gothic gates swing open soon enough. Originally shared in January 2024, we await the reopening of Wednesday’s world.
