‘Wednesday' returns darker and deadlier as Jenna Ortega vows to save Enid or die trying
After the events of season one, Wednesday finds herself haunted by visions that suggest her best friend Enid may die, and she believes it will be her fault. In a tense exchange with her mother Morticia, she confesses what she saw and makes her mission clear. She plans to uncover the truth and save Enid or lose everything trying.
The trailer teases a season filled with eerie twists, old grudges, and cryptic clues. Though Nevermore remains a place of dark mystery, Wednesday seems more focused and more relentless. Her bond with Enid takes center stage, turning the new season into an emotional test of loyalty and identity.
Netflix describes the season as a new chapter filled with family conflict, unexpected enemies, and supernatural threats. While Wednesday tries to keep her emotions locked away, the trailer shows that she may need to rely on her closest allies to survive what lies ahead.
Returning cast members include Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Joy Sunday. New faces joining the madness include Billie Piper and Steve Buscemi. Creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar are back along with executive producer and director Tim Burton, keeping the show's signature style intact.
Season two of Wednesday will premiere in two parts, with the first releasing on August 6 and the second on September 3. As the mystery deepens, one thing is certain, Wednesday Addams is not here to play.
