The macabre charm returns as Wednesday prepares for a second season filled with dark wit, supernatural twists, and gothic intrigue. With Jenna Ortega back as the deadpan, fiercely intelligent Wednesday Addams, the Netflix phenomenon continues to evolve, deepening the eerie mysteries of Nevermore Academy.
Set in a world of monsters, secrets, and murder, the show blends horror with sharp humor and stylized gloom. Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, the series is backed by a standout cast — Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzman, Isaac Ordonez, Gwendoline Christie, Riki Lindhome, Jamie McShane, Fred Armisen, and Christina Ricci.
Tim Burton, who directed half the episodes of Season 1 and served as executive producer, helped bring this chilling vision to life — a vision that was decades in the making after turning down previous Addams Family projects.
Filmed in Romania and launched in late 2022, the show broke records, earning acclaim for its eerie aesthetic, clever writing, and Ortega’s breakout performance. Within weeks, it became one of Netflix’s most-watched English-language series ever.
Season 2 promises even more cryptic puzzles, hidden truths, and strange encounters — as Wednesday delves further into the shadows, where not everything that’s buried stays dead.
