'Wednesday' Season 2 got a huge spotlight during Netflix's Tudum fan event Saturday, unveiling details for Lady Gaga and Haley Joel Osment's guest star roles in the process.
Gaga, who was first reported to join the cast of the Netflix horror comedy in November, will make her debut in Part 2 of Season 2, set for release Sept. 3. Specifics on her role were not immediately revealed.
The singer celebrated the announcement with a performance during the event in Los Angeles, performing 'Zombieboy' from her latest album.
Netflix also unveiled the first six minutes of Season 2, which revealed Haley Joel Osment's guest starring role as a longtime serial killer who Wednesday tracked down as her summer pastime. The clip showed how a trip to his home ended with Wednesday landing in a precarious situation, until an assist by Thing helped her to safety.

After 'Wednesday' Season 1 premiered in November 2022, Gaga's 2011 hit 'Bloody Mary' went viral combined with Ortega's dancing as Wednesday from the series on social media.

Major record labels are reportedly in licensing talks with AI firms Udio and Suno
In Brief Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and Sony Music Entertainment are in talks to license their work to AI startups Udio and Suno, according to a new report from Bloomberg. The deals would set forth a framework for how AI companies compensate artists for their work. The record labels are pushing to receive a small amount of equity in Suno and Udio. Udio and Suno allow aspiring music artists to receive an audio recording via prompts that describe sounds or songs, such as 'a modern country ballad about unrequited love.' Any deal would help to settle lawsuits between the music companies and AI startups. The labels sued Udio and Suno last year for copyright infringement. Both sides are in talks to see if they can agree on terms, as opposed to continuing legal fights. The music companies are pushing to get more control of the use of their work, while the AI startups want flexibility to experiment, the report notes.
