Netflix has released the full trailer for Wednesday season two, part two, which will see the return of Gwendoline Christie's Principal Larissa Weems.
Netflix has just released the trailer for Wednesday season two, part two, offering a glimpse of the remaining episodes from the latest series. It comes after viewers were baffled by the fact there were only four episodes when it was first shown.
‌
The programme arrived earlier this month with Wednesday Addams (portrayed by Jenna Ortega) tackling a new mystery centred around the Willow Hill Asylum, deceased Outcasts, and killer crows.
‌
The preview reveals the return of Principal Larissa Weems (Gwendoline Christie) following Wednesday's awakening from her unconscious condition, as reported by the Mirror.
‌
In the clip, Weems smiles and declares: "Rise and shine sleepy head," whilst Wednesday attempts to work out why she's witnessing the former Nevermore headmistress, who died at the hands of Marilyn Thornhill/Laurel Gates (Christina Ricci), in the first season.
Weems continues to clarify: "This isn't hell, but I understand the confusion", before stating: "Because I am your new spirit guide, surprise."
Weems will now be mentoring Wednesday following the teenager's loss of her psychic powers along with Goody's book, which could have helped her in recovering them.
Unfortunately for Wednesday, no one else can see Weems apart from her. Alongside Weems in the new expanded role Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan) remains at large and intends to eliminate both Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers) and Wednesday.
Tyler adopts a hooded disguise as he operates covertly and seems to be present at Nevermore. Nevertheless, a determined Wednesday promises Enid that she will sort out the Tyler situation.
‌
But her friend tells her: "Fix it? You're the reason he escaped." There's also a glimpse of the fundraising gala at Nevermore that Principal Dort (Steve Buscemi) has organised to bring in money for the school, plus a Tango between Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and Gomez (Luis Guzmán).
Wednesday later connects with Grandmama (Joanna Lumley) as they enjoy clay pigeon shooting, before Morticia joins the pair for a mystical crystal ball session.
‌
Morticia and Wednesday have a row as the teenage detective insists on learning the family's major secret, presumably questioning both her mum and grandmother about Aunt Ophelia, who's been absent for two decades.
The preview concludes on a menacing note as a voiceover cautions: "There will be a price to pay." A headstone hints Wednesday could also meet her end if she's not careful.
‌
Christie hinted at her comeback before the trailer's release when she appeared at the Outcast Assembly event as part of the programme's Global Doom Tour. The Game of Thrones star stepped onto the platform as a recording of her voice was played.
Fans heard the recording of Weems declaring: "Did you really think Nevermore would let me go so easily? I was never gone, you just stopped looking."
The second instalment will also showcase an appearance from Lady Gaga, but the international pop sensation and performer hasn't featured in the trailer.
Netflix has previously confirmed that Lady Gaga will portray the legendary Nevermore teacher, Rosaline Rotwood, who is set to cross paths with Wednesday. Although she was absent in the dream series, it's anticipated that she will make a grand entrance.
