"Wednesday" Renewed for Season 3
'Wednesday' has been renewed for Season 3 at Netflix.
The news comes ahead of the second season premiere of the Jenna Ortega-led supernatural comedy, which is the most popular English-language Netflix series of all time.
'Wednesday' stars Ortega as the darkly funny Wednesday Addams, who is expelled from her school after dumping piranhas into the pool, and is transferred to a private academy for outcasts.
The series also stars Gwendoline Christie as the shapeshifting principal of Wednesday's new school, Emma Myers as her werewolf roommate Enid, and Riki Lindhome as her school therapist.
The cast is rounded out by Jamie McShane, Hunter Doohan, Joy Sunday, Georgie Farmer, Naomi J. Ogawa, Moosa Mostafa, Christina Ricci, Steve Buscemi, Victor Dorobantu, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Billie Piper, Isaac Ordonez, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter, Noah Taylor, Luis Guzmán, and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
'Wednesday' became an awards magnet after its first season exploded on Netflix in 2022, garnering four Emmy awards. 'Wednesday' Season 2 will debut in two parts on August 6 and September 3.
In the second season, Wednesday Addams returns to Nevermore and must face off against a new tormentor to prevent Enid's death.
'Wednesday' is created by showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, based on characters by Charles Addams. Tim Burton is an executive producer alongside Steve Stark, Andrew Mittman, Gail Berman, Kayla Alpert, Jonathan Glickman, Tommy Harper, Kevin Lafferty and Kevin Miserocchi. Carmen Pepelea produces, and Danny Elfman and Chris Bacon are the composers.
'It's been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe — one deadpan quip at a time,' said Gough and Millar in a statement. 'We're beyond thrilled she'll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in Season 3. This time, she'll unearth more of the school's sinister secrets — and descend even deeper into the Addams family crypt. Or, as Wednesday would say: 'Nothing brings a family together like a good exhumation.''
