There’s still two solid weeks before the Netflix
The show, which stars Jenna Ortega in the title role, originally premiered on the streamer back in November 2022 and has taken nearly three years to bring fans a second helping. But it’s clear fans are hyped up for more, as the show hit No. 1 on Netflix’s global top 10 show ranking when it debuted and stayed there for six weeks. The first season garnered over 252 million views in just 90 days and went on to hit that No. 1 spot in over 90 countries.
“It’s been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe — one deadpan quip at a time,” creators and showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar gushed in a statement announcing the renewal.
“We’re beyond thrilled she’ll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in Season 3,” the pair continued. “This time, she’ll unearth more of the school’s sinister secrets — and descend even deeper into the Addams family crypt. Or, as Wednesday would say: ‘Nothing brings a family together like a good exhumation.’”
Netflix’s Chief Content Officer, Bela Bajaria, shared similar sentiments. “The undeniable impact of Wednesday resonated immediately with fans worldwide, driving it to the top of our charts as our most popular English-language TV show, and sparking cultural trends,” the studio rep said in a statement. “We are so proud of Al Gough, Miles Millar, Tim Burton, Jenna Ortega, and the entire Wednesday cast and crew for everything they’ve accomplished. On the heels of its highly-anticipated season two return, we are thrilled to renew the iconic series for a third and to deliver more of what the fans love.”
No word on additional casting for season 3 just yet, but everything — including a release date — in good time. As for season 2, it will premiere on Netflix in two parts, with the first arriving on August 6 and the second coming on September 3.
