Shooting for Season 2 of Netflix’s Emmy-winning series Wednesday is complete, the makers announced on Wednesday, dropping a photo of Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams.
“The Coffin has closed on Wednesday Season 2 production. Dying to show you what we’ve been up to in 2025,” the makers wrote on Instagram alongside a first-look picture of Jenna Ortega as Wednesday standing with her arms crossed in a graveyard.
“This season, Wednesday’s journey is darker and more complex as she navigates family, friends, new mysteries, and old adversaries, propelling her headlong into another year at Nevermore,” showrunners and executive producers Al Gough and Miles Millar said in a joint statement.
Besides Ortega, returning members of the cast include Joy Sunday (Bianca), Catherine Zeta-Jones (Morticia), Emma Myers (Enid), Hunter Doohan (Tyler), Moosa Mostafa (Eugene), Luis Guzmán (Gomez), Georgie Farmer (Ajax) and Isaac Ordonez (Pugsley).
Directed by Tim Burton, Wednesday premiered on November 23, 2022, offering a fresh twist to The Addams Family franchise. It showed Ortega’s Wednesday, a goth-loving girl, trying to hone her psychic abilities as a new student at Nevermore Academy.
Actors Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Joanna Lumley, Thandiwe Newton, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter and Noah Taylor are set to join the new season of the supernatural comedy-drama.
Wednesday Season 1 had ended with Hyde (Doohan) still alive and Wednesday receiving threat calls and texts from an unknown number. The second season will reportedly take off from this juncture.
