Pack your bags and your black eyeliner: “Wednesday” is heading back to Nevermore Academy this fall, and it’s bringing more gothic glam, twisted mysteries, and deadpan one-liners than ever before. Netflix’s hit series is splitting its second season into two deliciously eerie parts—Part 1 premieres August 6, 2025, with Part 2 dropping September 3, 2025.
Yes, that means we get eight episodes of pure Addams mayhem, served up in two distinct helpings. Consider this your official heads-up to schedule your moody binge-watching accordingly.
What’s the Vibe This Season?
Season 2 picks up with Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) returning to Nevermore Academy. But, of course, nothing is ever simple in her world. This time around, Wednesday is facing new enemies and cryptic dangers and the even more daunting task of figuring out her own complicated relationships with her eerie family, suspicious classmates, and those “just so happens to be supernatural” secrets lurking in every dark corner.
According to the official logline, Season 2 thrusts Wednesday into another deliciously dark mystery that’ll test her razor-sharp wit, signature deadpan delivery, and, presumably, her tolerance for social interaction.
Expect plenty of that classic gothic flair, complete with Tim Burton’s signature visual weirdness, back to direct half of the season’s episodes.
Who’s Back at Nevermore? And Who’s New?
All your faves are back, and they’ve brought some pretty wild new friends. Returning regulars include Jenna Ortega, Emma Myers (aka Enid, the colorful werewolf BFF), Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Luis Guzmán as Morticia and Gomez Addams.
Isaac Ordonez, Joy Sunday, Moosa Mostafa, Georgie Farmer, and more are all returning to stir up drama (and probably something paranormal)
New faces include Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Thandiwe Newton, Joanna Lumley, Fred Armisen, Christopher Lloyd, Lady Gaga, and Joonas Suotamo.
Behind the Madness: Creators & Directors
The dream team from Season 1 is back to keep the weirdness high and the standards higher. Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar are steering the ship again, and Tim Burton returns as executive producer and director for four of the eight episodes (201, 204, 207, 208).
Other directors include Paco Cabezas and Angela Robinson, rounding out a season that promises both continuity and some stylistic surprises. With a creative roster like this, you can expect the same eerie visuals, offbeat humor, and gothic heart that made Season 1 such a massive hit.
Split Season? Here’s What That Means
Netflix is going full Addams and doubling the suspense by breaking Season 2 into two parts: Part 1 (Episodes 201–204), which premieres August 6, 2025, and Part 2 (Episodes 205–208), which premieres September 3, 2025.
That’s four episodes of buildup, mystery, and mayhem followed by a cliffhanger-induced existential crisis, and then four more episodes to either solve everything or blow it all up spectacularly.
What’s Next for ‘Wednesday’?
Plot details are being kept in a black velvet bag, but here’s what we do know. Season 2 is diving deeper into Wednesday’s psyche, relationships, and spooky surroundings. There’s a new supernatural threat that forces her to confront her past, her future, and her general discomfort with expressing feelings. Expect even more weird lore, bizarre twists, and clever one-liners you’ll be quoting until Season 3 drops.
“Wednesday” Season 2 is a full-blown immersion into chaos, creepiness, and clever storytelling. With a killer cast, more supernatural drama, and that perfect balance of macabre and modern, it’s shaping up to be one of the most talked-about releases of 2025.
