After a nearly three-year-long wait, Wednesday will finally return this week!
The first season of the series, which shines a spotlight on Wednesday Addams, the sole daughter of the beloved Addams family, spent 20 weeks on Netflix’s Global Top 10 and reached the Top 10 in 93 countries worldwide, making it Netflix’s most popular English language TV series!
This August, viewers will be invited back to the spooky halls of Nevermore Academy as Wednesday embarks on a slew of new adventures and mysteries.
Continue reading for more information on the new season and a trailer for Wednesday season two!
What happened in Wednesday season one?
After being expelled from yet another school, Wednesday Addams is sent by her parents to Nevermore Academy, the school where they fell in love.
At Nevermore, Wednesday finds new friendships, romantic entanglement, and a supernatural mystery of epic proportions, with great implications for Wednesday’s family and her world.
At the end of the season, all loose ends are tied up as Wednesday saves the day and the school… or so she thinks.
What to expect from Wednesday season two
Showrunners and executive producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have said that “this season, Wednesday’s journey is darker and more complex as she navigates family, friends, new mysteries, and old adversaries, propelling her headlong into another year at Nevermore.”
Millar adds that Wednesday “goes into this season thinking she knows Nevermore. It’s the first time she’s returned to a school willingly.
But as soon as she gets back, nothing happens that she’s expecting. She thinks she’s going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, and she doesn’t.”
The entire Addams family will have larger roles in season two as, much to Wednesday’s horror, the line between her school and family lives is not only blurred but destroyed. “Your family at school is the worst thing possible, isn’t it?” asks director and executive producer Tim Burton
This season will also feature a strong supporting cast of both returning and new characters, and new challenges and obstacles Wednesday must overcome.
Who will be in Wednesday season two?

Jenna Ortega will, obviously, be reprising her role as the leading lady Wednesday Addams, and is also a producer on this season!
Emma Myers, Joy Sunday, Moosa Mostafa, Georgie Farmer, Victor Dorobantu, and Hunter Doohan will return as Enid, Bianca, Eugene, Ajax, Thing, and Tyler, respectively.
Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Isaac Ordonez will move from guest stars to main cast members as the rest of the Addams family and Fred Armisen will return as a guest star in the role of Uncle Fester.
