Jenna Ortega is set to reprise her role as the iconic Wednesday Addams in Wednesday Season 2 on Netflix. But while fans are eagerly awaiting the new season, the Scream star has just dropped a disappointing update about the possibility of Wednesday Season 3.
📺 Wednesday’s Unstoppable Popularity
Since its debut in 2022, Wednesday has become one of Netflix’s biggest success stories. The supernatural mystery-comedy captivated audiences with its dark humor, thrilling plot, and, of course, Jenna Ortega’s standout performance as the titular character. The show quickly smashed records, becoming one of the most-watched series in Netflix history.
Netflix officially renewed Wednesday for Season 2 in January 2023, and it’s set to premiere later this year. However, despite the massive fan anticipation, a third season is still up in the air.
🤷♀️ Jenna Ortega on Wednesday Season 3: No Green Light Yet
In a recent interview with Collider, Ortega revealed that she has no confirmation on whether Season 3 is happening. When asked about a potential renewal, she said:
“We haven’t gotten an official thumbs up or anything like that, but I know that the writers are… With a show like that, you kind of want to get ahead of the game. So, I think that they’re kind of messing around and throwing out ideas.”
So, while ideas for a third season may already be circulating among the creative team, Netflix hasn’t given the official go-ahead just yet.
🎬 Season 2 Production Updates
Though Season 3 remains uncertain, Ortega did offer some insights into Wednesday Season 2’s production process. The upcoming season is still in post-production, with editing and ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement) work ongoing.
“We’re still in the edit. I was doing ADR for it two weeks ago. That’s the funny thing about these jobs—you wrap, but you’re not really done. So, I’ll probably be working on it until the end.”
Ortega also teased that Season 2 will lean deeper into horror, paying tribute to classic 1970s and 1980s horror films like Carrie and Prom Night.
“There’s a whole episode based on slashers, and we make a lot of horror references. Everything about it feels bigger and more elaborate this time around.”
👀 Wednesday Season 2: What to Expect
With nearly three years between Seasons 1 and 2, fan expectations are sky-high. Here’s what we know so far:
🔹 More Addams Family Screen Time – Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and Gomez (Luis Guzmán) are expected to have a bigger presence.
🔹 Darker, More Horror-Centric Storytelling – A shift towards a scarier tone is on the horizon.
🔹 New Mysterious Characters – Including a top-secret role played by none other than Lady Gaga! 🎤🖤
🎶 Lady Gaga Joins the Wednesday Cast
One of the most exciting additions to Season 2 is Lady Gaga, though details about her role remain under wraps. Gaga has expressed her admiration for Jenna Ortega and teased that her involvement in the show will be “extra secret.”
Bringing a global pop star of Gaga’s caliber into the Wednesday universe is sure to generate even more buzz—something Netflix definitely won’t mind!
📅 When Will Wednesday Season 2 Premiere?
Although an exact date hasn’t been announced yet, Wednesday Season 2 is expected to drop later this year. As for Season 3? Fans will have to wait a little longer to see if Netflix gives the eerie green light.
