Following the climactic season 1 finale of Tim Burton's Wednesday, here's everything we know about season 2 of Netflix's Addams Family show.
Summary
- Season 2 of Wednesday will delve deeper into the Addams Family Mansion, offering more insight into Morticia's role and wardrobe.
- Jenna Ortega will have a bigger role in the production of season 2, serving as a producer to bring more voices and ideas to the show.
- Wednesday season 2 is now slated to begin shooting in 2024, but no release date has been revealed.
The first season of Jenna Ortega and Tim Burton's reimagining of Wednesday Addams was a runaway success for Netflix, and Wednesday season 2 news has been coming in steadily ever since. Directed by Tim Burton, Wednesday’s first season follows Wednesday Addams as she’s sent to Nevermore Academy, a boarding school for supernatural “outcasts.” Season 1 primarily consists of the title character learning to adjust to her new school while solving a murder mystery that impacted her parents 30 years ago.
Wednesday Addams may have already solved season 1’s main mystery by exposing Tyler as the Hyde monster and Ms. Thornhill, A.K.A. Laurel Gates, as the vengeful outcast killer, but there’s still more story to tell. As such, it’s more than likely that Wednesday will discover more Addams Family secrets and investigate her new stalker in another season. Here is all the news regarding Wednesday season 2.
The Latest Wednesday Season 2 News
After being delayed due to the Hollywood strikes the latest news on the Addams Family spinoffs sees Wednesday season 2 finally establish a production start date. Hampered by shooting delays, the long-awaited second season is expected to begin shooting in April 2024 as the production shifts from Romania to Ireland. In the same announcement, Netflix made it clear that Wednesday was a top priority along with the fifth and final season of Stranger Things.
The WGA strike was resolved on September 27th, 2023, and the SAG/AFTRA strike was resolved on November 9th, 2023.
Wednesday Season 2 is Confirmed
Naturally, because Wednesday was such a smashing success for Netflix in its first season, the streamer wasted no time in announcing a second. However, the January 2023 reveal of Wednesday season 2 came before the eventual Hollywood strikes which put many productions on hold for the better part of the year. With the strikes out of the way, the show is expected to go into production in April 2024, though no release date has been revealed.
