Tim Burton and Jenna Ortega, who have been busy promoting “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” this summer, are now turning their attention back to Nevermore Academy for the upcoming Season 2 of “Wednesday.” During Netflix’s Geeked Week fan event, a behind-the-scenes teaser was released, giving fans a glimpse of what to expect in the new season of the Addams Family spin-off series, set to premiere in 2025.
Catherine Zeta Jones, who plays matriarch Morticia Addams, promises that this season will be even bigger and more twisted than before. Jenna Ortega, starring as the spooky teen Wednesday, jokes that revealing more details would be too much for the audience to handle.
The teaser clip features Tim Burton directing the cast on set, along with appearances from co-stars Emma Myers and Joy Sunday. The show, created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, follows Wednesday Addams as she navigates life at Nevermore Academy and hones her psychic abilities. In the first season, she unraveled a mystery tied to her parents’ past.
Christina Ricci, known for her role as Wednesday in the Addams Family films and Burton’s “Sleepy Hollow,” made an appearance in the first season as Marilyn Thornhill. Tim Burton, who recently worked on a long-awaited sequel to “Beetlejuice” with Jenna Ortega and other returning cast members, is now back to bring more of his signature style to “Wednesday.”
Fans can look forward to a darker, more mysterious second season filled with twists and turns as Wednesday continues her supernatural journey at Nevermore Academy. Stay tuned for more updates and surprises as the premiere date approaches.
