First Image from Stephen King Series “The Institute” for MGM+
Less than a week after Wednesday Addams hijacked the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade with her own float, Netflix has announced that “Wednesday” Season 2 has wrapped production.
Additionally, they’ve shared the first official image of Jenna Ortega back in full Wednesday Addams costume from the show’s upcoming second season. Check it out down below.
“Wednesday” Season 2 will arrive on Netflix sometime in 2025.
Jenna Ortega stars in the upcoming second season as Wednesday Addams, with Luis Guzmán returning as Gomez Addams and Catherine Zeta-Jones back as Morticia Addams.
Lady Gaga has signed on to star in “Wednesday” Season 2, we recently learned!
The “Wednesday” Season 2 cast also includes Joy Sunday as Bianca, Joanna Lumley as Grandmama, Emma Myers as Enid, Steve Buscemi as Barry Dort, Billie Piper as Capri, and Thandiwe Newton as Dr. Fairburn, along with Hunter Doohan, Victor Dorobantu, Moosa Mostafa, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Georgie Farmer, Isaac Ordonez, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter, and Noah Taylor.
Guest stars for Season 2 include Jamie McShane, Frances O’Connor, Haley Joel Osment, Heather Matarazzo, Joonas Suotamo, Fred Armisen, and Christopher Lloyd. Of particular note here, Lloyd of course played Uncle Fester in the live action Addams Family movies from the 1990s, while Armisen plays Fester in the “Wednesday” series.
“Wednesday” is described as “a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy.” The series follows…
“Wednesday’s attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships.”
Alfred Gough and Miles Millar (“Smallville”) are the writers and showrunners, with Tim Burton executive producing and directing several episodes of the show’s debut season.
We don’t know much about “Wednesday” Season 2 at the moment but Jenna Ortega has promised that the new season will be “bolder” and darker than the first season of the series.
“We’ve decided we want to lean into the horror more,” Ortega said last year.
