The
Jenna Ortega-starring
“Wednesday” has been a massive,
record-breaking hit for Netflix, and the streamer has announced today that “Wednesday” Season 2 is soon on the way!
“It’s been incredible to create a show that has connected with people across the world,” said showrunners
Alfred Gough and
Miles Millar. “Thrilled to continue Wednesday’s tortuous journey into season two. We can’t wait to dive head first into another season and explore the kooky spooky world of Nevermore.”
The Hollywood Reporter notes, “Since its release November 23, the debut season starring Jenna Ortega has become Netflix’s third most-popular series of all time, behind only
Stranger Things season 4 and
Squid Game. The show also twice broke the record for most hours viewed in a single week by an English-language TV series.”
Stay tuned for more on “Wednesday” Season 2 as we learn it.
Jenna Ortega stars in the new series as Wednesday Addams, with
Luis Guzmán playing Gomez and
Catherine Zeta-Jones playing Morticia in Tim Burton’s Netflix series.
Christina Ricci also appears in the show, playing a brand new role, with
Fred Armisen as Uncle Fester.
“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.
