Behind the Curtain: Production and Development Insights
Hints of a third season had gained momentum since March 2025, when reports emerged that Season 3 had received internal codenames—
NIGHTSHADE
and
RAVEN
. These titles tie directly into the show's lore, referencing Nevermore Academy's secret society and its symbolic dance event, respectively.
Lead actress Jenna Ortega, who has garnered critical acclaim for her portrayal of the gothic heroine, had previously indicated that work on the third installment had quietly commenced. However, she emphasized that an official confirmation had not been issued—until now.
Live Events
Narrative Continuity and Story Arcs
Though full plot details remain under wraps, leaks and unconfirmed reports suggest a seamless narrative transition from Season 2 into Season 3. The developing storyline is said to feature redemption arcs, more intense external threats, and evolving interpersonal relationships among the student body at Nevermore Academy.
The creators, Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, expressed their commitment to building upon the show's thematic foundations. '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,' they told
TUDUM
. 'We want to continue digging deeper into our characters while expanding the world of Nevermore and Wednesday.'
Netflix Executives React
Bela Bajaria, Netflix's Chief Content Officer, praised the series' cultural influence and mass appeal. 'The undeniable impact of
Wednesday
resonated immediately with fans worldwide, driving it to the top of our charts as our most popular English-language TV show,' she said in a statement.
'We are thrilled to renew the iconic series for a third [season] and to deliver more of what the fans love,' Bajaria added, lauding the creative team including Tim Burton, Gough, Millar, Ortega, and the wider cast and crew.
Potential Spinoff in the Works
In a surprising addition to the renewal news,
The Hollywood Reporter
also disclosed that a
Wednesday
spinoff series is in early stages of discussion. While unnamed, prior reports from
Bloomberg
had suggested an
Uncle Fester
-centric spinoff was being considered by the streamer.
Showrunner Alfred Gough commented on the possibility, saying, 'It's something we're definitely noodling. There are other characters we can look at.' However, he stopped short of confirming whether the proposed series would be tied directly to
Wednesday
's third season.
Long-Term Vision for the Series
The series' creative heads remain cautious about projecting a long-term episode count. Director Tim Burton downplayed questions regarding series longevity, saying, 'I don't think that way. You're talking to two of the worst people to ask that question.'
Despite the ambiguity, Gough and Millar hinted at a broader vision: 'We hope to keep
Wednesday
enrolled through the character's Nevermore tenure, which lasts seven years (or seasons).'
Season 3 Release Date Speculation
Although no official
Wednesday Season 3 release date
has been announced, timelines based on ongoing production activity suggest a likely premiere in late 2026, according to the report by What's On Netflix. This would hinge on swift movement post-Season 2 and the absence of major delays.
With Season 2 already split into two parts and set for release during August and September 2025, audiences can expect an interlinked continuation that sets the stage for the events of the third installment.
Fan and Industry Response
Fans responded to the news across social media with excitement, memes, and anticipatory countdowns. The series has garnered a dedicated following due in large part to Ortega's nuanced performance, as well as the show's mix of macabre humor, teen drama, and supernatural intrigue.
As showrunner Miles Millar aptly summarized, 'It's been a dark delight to watch
Wednesday
cast her spell over audiences across the globe—one deadpan quip at a time.'
He continued, '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.''

Better Late Than Single Finale: How many couples were formed and who did not escape ‘eternal single' squad?
Always solo, Korean men and women in their 20s have a life ahead of them, but what remains is their will to find love, and this Netflix reality show taps into 10 such individuals. Bringing on established young people to give them a fair chance at finding a partner, Better Late Than Single got famous for some controversial moments, including remarks from the contestants. Even the panelists, Seo In Guk, Kang Han Na, Lee Eun Ji, and Car, the Garden (Cha Jung Won) were surprised. Now, as the show comes to an end after 10 episodes, we're taking a look at the two couples who were formed on the show. Which couples ended up together on Better Late Than Single? One of the most unexpected and debatable relationships came to fruition towards the end of last week's episodes. When Ha Jeong Mok broke Yi Do's heart during part 8, almost all of the internet turned against him, calling out his sudden change of heart and lack of clarification to the girls interested in him, including Lee Min Hong. On the other hand, his feelings towards Park Ji Yeon were on a climb, surprising everyone. The latter's confession of a difficult childhood made Ha Jeong Mok's feelings towards her grow stronger and faster. Eventually, Ha Jeong Mok and Park Ji Yeon turned out to be the first confirmed couple on the show, after confirming their mutual liking for each other. Kang Ji Su, much like the male star above, was popular among her peers, being pursued by the likes of Kang Hyun Kyu, Kim Sang Ho, and Kim Seung Li. She tried her hand at dating each one of them, and while the first went on a rant about how much he was falling for her, the other one could not give her enough attention. It was Kim Seung Li with his quick admissions of faults and eagerness to work it out with her that worked in the end. Kang Ji Su and Kim Seung Li turned out to be the second couple from the show. Meanwhile, other contestants on the program, Noh Jae Yun, Kim Yeo Myung, Kim Sang Ho, Lee Min Hong, Yi Do, Kang Hyun Kyu, Lee Seung Chan, and Kim Mi Ji continued on their path as 'eternal singles'.
