The post Netflix Reveals First Trailer for Wednesday Season 2, Confirms Two-Part Release appeared first on Consequence.
Netflix has revealed the first trailer for Wednesday Season 2 and confirmed a two-part release schedule: the first set of episodes will premiere on August 2nd, followed by the second half on September 3rd.
Originally renewed for a second season in January 2023, the new batch of Wednesday episodes will expand the series with more of a horror-vibe, striking a “bolder, more dark” tone than the first season, according to an interview with series star Jenna Ortega.
Along with Ortega, the cast for the new season is set to include Steve Buscemi, Christopher Lloyd, Thandiwe Newton, and more. Lady Gaga will also be joining the cast after Ortega once publicly mused about a hypothetical role for her in 2023. The new season will also see Tim Burton return to direct four episodes.
Returning cast members include Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Adams, Victor Dorobantu as Thing, Hunter Doohan as Hyde, Emma Myers as Werewolf, Joy Sunday as Siren, Georgie Farmer as Farmer, and Moosa Mostafa as Psychic.
Wednesday originally premiered in November 2022, and became a runaway success, in part due to Ortega’s viral, self-choreographed goth dance. The show even broke a Netflix viewership record in its first week.
