After the immense success and viral moments from its first season, Netflix has dropped a new teaser for Wednesday Season 2, offering fans a sneak peek at what’s in store when the highly anticipated return of the Addams family hits screens this August.
What to Expect from Wednesday Season 2
The Wednesday Season 2 teaser offers a fresh look at Jenna Ortega reprising her role as the sharp-witted and darkly charismatic Wednesday Addams. In a recent interview, Ortega shared her excitement about slipping back into the role, calling Wednesday one of the coolest characters ever. She added, “She runs circles around everyone she converses with, so to play someone so much more intelligent than you will ever be is quite funny and strange.”
The new season promises to take fans deeper into the twisted world of Nevermore Academy, with Wednesday navigating new supernatural mysteries and family dynamics. The teaser also hints at some exciting changes, with Wednesday’s younger brother, Pugsley Addams (played by Isaac Ordonez), joining the season as a series regular. Fans will get to see Pugsley start his classes alongside Wednesday and the other “outcasts” introduced in the first season.
Gomez and Morticia Addams Will Have a Larger Presence
In addition to Pugsley’s arrival, the beloved Addams Family parents, Gomez and Morticia (portrayed by Luis Guzmán and Catherine Zeta-Jones), will have a bigger role at Nevermore Academy in Season 2. However, Netflix has kept the specifics under wraps, leaving fans to wonder how the famous duo will influence the upcoming plot.
A New Face at Nevermore
Fans are also introduced to Steve Buscemi as Principal Dort, a new character who will oversee the chaotic happenings at Nevermore Academy. The teaser offers just a glimpse of him, but his role is expected to be pivotal in the season’s unfolding mysteries.
What’s Next for Wednesday?
As creator Miles Millar teased, Wednesday enters the new season thinking she knows Nevermore like the back of her hand. It’s the first time she has willingly returned to school, but nothing goes as planned. According to Millar, “She thinks she’s going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, and she doesn’t. Nothing is what it seems in Season 2.”
Release Schedule for Wednesday Season 2
Wednesday Season 2 will be released in two parts. Part 1 will drop on August 6, 2025, and Part 2 will be available on September 3, 2025. Fans can expect more supernatural shenanigans, family drama, and a few unexpected twists that will leave them on the edge of their seats.
