Guess who’s back? Watch the official trailer for Wednesday Season 2, Part 2. Wednesday Part 2 is coming on September 3rd. Only on Netflix.
Gwendoline Christie reprises her role as fan-favorite Principal Weems in Wednesday Season 2, Part 2. The banter between Wednesday and her newly appointed spirit guide – her once-loathed principal, now returned from the afterlife – is back in full swing.
Christie’s return was initially revealed during a surprise appearance at the Doom Tour press conference in Sydney, Australia, alongside stars Jenna Ortega, Emma Myers, Director/EP Tim Burton, and Creators/Showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar.
“Nobody in our world is truly dead dead.” – Co-Creator & Showrunner, Alfred Gough (as told to Tudum.com)
Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. This season, Wednesday must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery.
Creator/showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar return for the spine-tingling second season of Wednesday, alongside executive producer and director Tim Burton.
Wednesday, created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, premiered in 2022 and quickly became a record-breaking global phenomenon, claiming the #1 spot on Netflix’s list of most popular English shows of all time and spent 20 weeks on the Global Top 10. Based on characters created by Charles Addams and reimagined for a new generation with creative visionary Tim Burton. The show captivated fans with its witty, offbeat tone and the gothic charm of Wednesday Addams, brought to life by Jenna Ortega. Wednesday ignited a massive fandom, as Ortega’s instagram followers ballooned from 9M to 37M timed to the release of Season 1. The show became a cultural phenomenon, sparking a gothic fashion revival; causing the makeup used in the show to sell out; and propelling The Cramps’ ‘Goo Goo Muck’ song with a 5,000% surge in streams – four decades after its release. The iconic dance scene inspired millions of TikTok recreations using Lady Gaga’s song “Bloody Mary,” sparking a 1,800% spike in Spotify streams, prompting Lady Gaga to join in and to join the show as a guest star in Season 2, which was announced during her captivating performance at Netflix Tudum 2025. Wednesday has earned worldwide critical acclaim, garnering 50 award nominations and 17 wins, including Emmys®, Golden Globes, and the SAG Awards. As the franchise grows, it extends beyond the screen with immersive experiences at Netflix House and creative brand partnerships, including Wendy’s US, McDonald’s France, Burger King Spain, Nu Bank LATAM, and Cheetos US and Latin America. Already renewed for a third season, Wednesday returns with Season 2 part 1 on August 6 and part 2 on September 3.
