“Wednesday” Season 2 marks the return of everyone's favorite nasty big sister to the small screen. So far, the unstoppable child of misery has been plagued, hunted, nearly slain, and tortured in ways she obviously enjoyed. Everything seemed to be going upward for the star Goth at Nevermore Academy now that her story is about to resume.
Prior to the “Wednesday” Season 2 confirmation, which was backed by sustained high viewership and many award nominations for the lead star, Jenna Ortega, much has been said about what worked and what did not. Fans have heard about the actress's set troubles and her discontent with the character's development.
She's also voiced a desire for a larger emphasis on horror in the next installment, which makes sense given how Season 1 ended. While fans wait for further information on the upcoming sequel, here is everything you need to know about “Wednesday” Season 2.
‘Wednesday’ Season 2 Release Date
It can be recalled that Netflix confirmed the production of “Wednesday” Season 2 with a video posted on Twitter. Fans predict that if the future installment follows the same production timetable as the first, filming and post-production will take another 12 to 14 months, putting the probable release of the second season in the middle of 2024.
‘Wednesday’ Season 2 Cast
Most cast members, led by Jenna Ortega, are anticipated to return in “Wednesday” Season 2 as they do in most sequels, per Teen Vogue. Other stars expected to return in the upcoming second installment include Gwendoline Christie as Larissa Weems, Riki Lindhome as Dr. Valerie Kinbott, Jamie McShane as Donovan Galpin, and Hunter Doohan as Tyler Galpin.
“Wednesday” Season 2 is also expected to feature Percy Hynes White as Xavier Thorpe, Joy Sunday as Bianca Barclay, George Farmer as Ajax Petropolus, Naomi J. Ogawa as Yoko Tanaka, and Moosa Mostafa as Eugene Ottinger, all of whom are students at Nevermore Academy. Of course, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzman, Isaac Ordonez, and George Burcea, who play Morticia Addams, Gomez Addams, Pugsley Addams, and Lurch, the Addams family's butler, are likely to return.
‘Wednesday’ Season 2 Plot
As of press time, Netflix had not provided any official details about the plot of “Wednesday” Season 2, per Digital Spy. Fans of the series are aware that the plot is based on the original Addams Family story and is braided into a murder mystery, making it a whodunit in the gothic noir style.
To account for the time required to complete production, “Wednesday” Season 2 is expected to take place two years after the events of the first season. Fans also expect that her family, particularly Morticia and Gomez, will get more screen time in the forthcoming season, which would help viewers better understand Wednesday's past.
