‘Wednesday' season two trailer offers peek at scenes filmed in Irish countryside
The official teaser trailer for Wednesday's season two has been released, and fans are excited to see the beloved show's new backdrop.
Netflix
released the teaser today—on a Wednesday, of course—giving fans a glimpse into the highly anticipated second season. The show stars Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams in
the gothic-comedy hit,
which broke the record for the most hours viewed in a single week for an English-language series on Netflix.
The second season, which
will be released in two installments, will debut on August 6.
The season was filmed in Ireland,
where
Jenna Ortega and director Tim Burton were
spotted hanging out last summer.

In the trailer, Wednesday returns for a second year at Nevermore Academy, a private school for outcasts, set in the fictional town of Jericho, Vermont. However, despite stating in the trailer that she was 'returning to the scene of a crime,' the location is different this time around.
Season one was filmed in Bucharest, Romania, but production was moved to Ireland due to logistical challenges. The country is believed to have been chosen because of its attractive film industry and tax incentives.
But the lush foliage, vast landscapes
, and beautiful scenery were the perfect choice, particularly in
Co Wicklow
, where most of the scenes were
shot at Ardmore Studios.
The trailer shows scenes filmed on easily recognizable
rural Irish roads.
It seems that Powerscourt House and Gardens, a large country estate in Wicklow, was also used for some scenes. The estate fits the show's aesthetic perfectly and has a reputation for being spooky, with stories of ghosts and paranormal activity linked to its history and architecture.
According to Screen Ireland, which has welcomed major films and TV shows like Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Wednesday marks the 'largest production to ever film in Ireland' regarding production spend. Filming took around seven months to complete.
Last April, legendary filmmaker
Tim Burton visited the Guinea Pig restaurant in Dalkey in south Dublin,
where he posed for pictures with the chef and owner.
Ortega also ventured further than
Co Wicklow
during her time in Ireland. Last October, she was pictured
visiting a sheepdog farm in Co Kildare.
The 22-year-old was also spotted attending a
music festival and a Chappell Roan concert in
Dublin

Mid-year fashion review: Why ‘Newstalgia' is the most personal trend of 2025
Above Saint Laurent autumn 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week The assertive tailoring once synonymous with 'power' and corporate core has shifted towards something more fluid, without losing its edge. The sharpness remains, but it's softened—evident in Bottega Veneta's sculpted but unpadded jackets and The Row's languid blazers that slip over the body like silk robes. At Saint Laurent, the shoulder retains its presence, but is offset by diaphanous sheer blouses or fluid trousers. Oversized blazers still rule, but they've softened, often cinched at the waist or rendered in fluid tailoring that moves with the body. Above Saint Laurent autumn 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week Above Saint Laurent autumn 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week Transparency is everywhere, but this time, it feels deliberate, imbued with nuance rather than provocation. Sheer has evolved from spectacle to subtlety. At Loewe, whisper-fine feathered knits reveal more than warm. Alaïa's gauzy overlays add dimension, not exposure. In climates like Singapore, this airy approach to layering is both stylistic and strategic—less trend, more practicality wrapped in elegance. Above Loewe spring-summer 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week Above Loewe spring-summer 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week Voluminous silhouettes have held steady, but their purpose has shifted. No longer just maximalist statements, they've become more about ease, airiness, and emotion. JW Anderson and Simone Rocha experiment with volume as play—dresses that swing, balloon, or crumple, inviting a tactile connection. Even Saint Laurent's fuller midi skirts feel grounded in functionality, echoing the mid-century with just enough tension to feel current. There's also a richness to the materials: suede in sun-washed hues, fluid silks, featherlight faux furs. Celebrities have already embraced the return of high-glamour opulence (we predicted this back in January), stepping out in gilded accessories and floaty silhouettes that photograph like a dream. Above Saint Laurent autumn 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week Parallel to the rise of Newstalgia is a growing obsession with the archive. No longer just the domain of collectors or fashion historians, archival fashion has found new cachet with consumers seeking pieces that tell a story. Helping to fuel this movement are the celebrities who wield nostalgia with ease. Zendaya in archival Versace, Jenna Ortega reviving John Galliano's Dior newspaper dress worn by Carrie Bradshaw in 2010. Above Jenna Ortega in John Galliano's newspaper Dior dress from the autumn-winter 2000 collection Above Sarah Jessica Parker's character Carrie Bradshaw wears the newspaper Dior dress in 'Sex and the City' (2010) When a red-carpet look references a specific fashion era, it invites viewers to recontextualise their own wardrobes. Suddenly, that old Fendi baguette or a pair of kitten heels from the early noughts feel fresh, rather than a fashion homage. Vintage shopping, once niche, has become integral to luxury consumption, not only for its sustainability but for its uniqueness. In a market saturated with sameness, a rare piece from a past collection feels meaningly and undeniably exclusive. Above Zendaya in vintage Versace autumn-winter 2001 collection Ultimately, what's most compelling about Newstalgia is how personal it feels. Nostalgic fashion trends hinge on how they're styled—it isn't about dressing like your mother (or grandmother); it's about taking the best bits of their wardrobes and making them yours. Looking ahead, this softened approach to nostalgia is unlikely to disappear. If anything, expect designers to lean further into reinterpretation in the upcoming spring-summer 2026 presentations—exploring ways to honour heritage while responding to the urgency of now. Pre-fall previews suggest a continued fascination with volume, along with a refined palette of neutrals and unexpected pastels that feel grounded rather than whimsical. Credits
