This update comes alongside the announcement that Gwendoline Christie will reprise her role as Larissa Weems in the upcoming second season, revealed during the series' promotional Doom Tour in Australia.Originally, filming for Wednesday season 3 was expected to begin in Fall 2025. However, a new update indicates that Netflix has postponed production to Q2 2026. This change means fans will face a longer wait before the release of the next chapter in Wednesday's story.
The cast and crew of Wednesday have been promoting season 2 through the Doom Tour, visiting countries in Europe such as Romania, Italy, Poland, and the UK. Recently, the tour completed its Asian schedule in South Korea before moving to Australia for its August 14–16 events.During the Australian leg of the Doom Tour, streamed live on TikTok to tens of thousands of viewers worldwide, it was revealed that Gwendoline Christie would return as Principal Larissa Weems in season 2. This confirmation ends months of speculation among fans.Fans had suspected Christie's involvement in season 2 for some time. Social media users noted that her Instagram location matched that of other cast and crew members in Ireland during filming. While Ireland is a common filming site, this coincidence led to strong speculation, now proven correct.
Weems appeared to die at the end of season 1 after being poisoned by Marilyn Thornhill. However, the season 2 part 2 preview suggests that her spirit could return through Wednesday's psychic visions. Wednesday, injured and in a coma after an attack by Tyler Galpin's Hyde, may encounter Weems in the afterlife.It remains unclear if Weems will physically return to the real world or only appear in visions. If she does return, potential conflicts could arise with Principal Barry Dort, played by Steve Buscemi, whose approach to running Nevermore contrasts with Weems' methods.
When will Wednesday season 3 start filming?
Wednesday season 3 will now begin filming in the second quarter of 2026, delaying its release from earlier expectations of a Fall 2025 production start.
How will Larissa Weems return in Wednesday season 2?
Larissa Weems is expected to appear through Wednesday's psychic visions while she is in a coma, though a full physical return to the story has not been confirmed.

Vir Das Jokes He Is ‘Described Like COVID-19' In Paparazzi Captions: ‘They'll Say Aamir Khan…'
Vir Das' hilarious acceptance speech after winning Disruptor Award at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) 2025 is unmissable! Comedian-actor Vir Das recently won the 'Disruptor Award' at Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) 2025. Among the other winners across various categories at the prestigious film festival were Aamir Khan, Neeraj Ghaywan, Abhishek Bachchan, and Aditi Rao Hydari. Vir Das has now shared a video of his acceptance speech after winning the award at IFFM 2025, and it is going viral! In the heartfelt yet humorous speech, he hilariously described himself as the 'kadi patta', while the others were the main course. He joked that once they return to India, the paparazzi will describe stars like Aamir Khan and Malaika Arora in flattering ways, while his return will just be called 'Vir Das is back' — like COVID-19. In his viral speech at IFFM, Vir Das said, 'My name is Vir Das. I think this award answers the question I have been asking myself. And many of you are asking yourself. Which is 'what is a random tiny comedian doing in a massive film festival?' And the answer is, 'He is disrupting it'." He further added, 'I am not accomplished enough or talented enough to be at this festival with the people you see here tonight. It's like they are your main dish and I am your kadi patta. You will see the difference. If you don't believe me, when we all go home on the flight to Mumbai, please watch the paparazzi captions for all of these famous people." 'They will say Aamir Khan returns home looking wonderful, refreshed with his family. Malaika Arora wore a wonderful jacket. She got into a green SUV looking happy. Mine will say 'Vir Das is back'. I get described like COVID-19," he hilariously shared. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vir Das (@virdas) Soon after Vir Das shared the video of his speech, netizens congratulated him and praised his humour. 'I wouldn't mind a load of this #kadipatta Congratulations Vir," read one comment on the post, while another one read, 'Only a certain @virdas can go to take an award & give back with satire & laughs." 'I wish we could all be kadi patta in our own way….you Rock bro …. Congratulations," read a third comment. Vir Das, who made history as the first Indian comedian to win the prestigious International Emmy Award in 2024 for his special Landing, has made a global comeback with Fool Volume—his sixth stand-up special which premiered worldwide on Netflix last month. view comments First Published: August 16, 2025, 12:11 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
