Wednesday season 3 is happening: Release hints, cast returns, and what's next
Netflix is not letting go of its spooky golden girl just yet. While season 2 of Wednesday is still unraveling, the streamer has already confirmed that a third installment is on the way. The announcement had dropped in July 2025, before season 2 even premiered. According to Netflix, Alfred Gough, co-creator and showrunner, said the plan for season 3 is simple: 'Our goal for season 3 is the same as it is for every season: to make it the best season of Wednesday we possibly can. We want to continue digging deeper into our characters while expanding the world of Nevermore and Wednesday.' Netflix confirmed that a third installment of Wednesday is on the way on July 2025. Co-showrunner Miles Millar backed that up, adding, 'We will be seeing more Addams Family members and learning more family secrets in season 3!' As for when we will actually see the next season of Wednesday is still unclear. Season 2 faced delays, partly due to the WGA strikes in 2023. If things go smoother this time around, we might not have to wait as long, but it is still likely a few years out.

But not all characters are expected to return to the third season. Who is exiting: Donovan Galpin (Jamie McShane), Laurel Gates (Christina Ricci), Dr Rachael Fairburn (Thandiwe Newton), and Xavier Thorpe (Percy Hynes White). That is confirmed.

Millar's tease about more family secrets hints at deeper Addams lore in season 3, which fans are definitely ready for. The episode count has not been confirmed, but it is a safe bet we will get another eight - just like seasons 1 and 2. At present, season 2 part 1 is streaming now on Netflix.
