Will there be a second season for 'Wednesday?'

What is Wednesday about?

Based on the legendary Adams Family franchise, Wednesday follows the daughter of the creepy and kooky family. Wednesday is sent to Nevermore Academy, a school for outcasts. However, she soon learns that school is hard, no matter where you go. And this gets even worse when a killing spree starts on and around Nevermore Academy, forcing Wednesday to get to the bottom of it before she becomes the killer’s next target. But her investigation will lead her to some unexpected places.

In its official synopsis, Netflix describes the show by saying:

“The series is a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy. Wednesday’s attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago—all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.”

Will Wednesday get a second season? 

When it comes to Netflix shows, nothing is ever guaranteed, not even for the biggest of hits.

The moment the show’s first season was released, fans started begging for the next chapter. This, plus the show’s meteoric rise in popularity, led to some pundits and insiders saying that a second installment was inevitable. Some key members of the show’s cast and crew talked about their desire to make more. During an interview with NME, Jenna Ortega, who plays the lead and titular character, said: 

“I have no idea if we’ll come back. “It could continue, but it could also end. I think that’s what’s kind of nice about the show—we have the option.”

This sentiment was shared by Alfred Gough, one of the show’s co-creators. During an interview with Empire magazine, he was directly asked if the show would get a second season. Gough told the publication that:

“Miles and I are talking amongst ourselves about it. There’s definitely more that you can explore in the world of the Addamses.”

The second season was made official on Jan 6 when it was announced by both Netflix and the official Wednesday Twitter account. Captioned, “More torture is coming. Lucky you,” the announcement Tweet does feature a short teaser video that points out how popular the show’s first season has been and shows some of the cast meeting fans at various events. 

As intriguing as it may be, the teaser confirms nothing about the second season. We have no idea about the new season’s storyline, filming schedule, or projected release date at the present time. Wednesday fans will have to wait for further announcements from Netflix before they can enjoy more of Wednesday’s macabre adventures.
