The trailer teases a final confrontation with Vecna, concluding with Noah Schnapp's Will Byers' character yelling 'RUN!' Netflix unveiled the first six minutes of the second season of 'Wednesday,' featuring Ortega's Wednesday Addams getting a helping hand from Thing as she confronts a serial killer played by Haley Joel Osment. Gaga's first acting gig since last year's 'Joker: Folie a Deux' will be playing teacher Rosaline Rotwood at Addams' school Nevermore.
