Filming wrapped earlier this year, and post-production is in full swing. Jenna Ortega recently revealed that she’s still working on final touches, including additional voice recordings.

The Addams family expands with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán reprising their roles as Morticia and Gomez Addams. Fred Armisen’s Uncle Fester and Victor Dorobantu’s Thing will also be back for more mischief.
The Wednesday Season 2 cast also has new additions, including Billie Piper as Capri, Steve Buscemi as Barry Dort, and Joanna Lumley as Grandmama. Even pop superstar Lady Gaga will make a special cameo, though her role remains under wraps.
Wednesday Season 2’s known plot details and trailer
Season 2 picks up with Wednesday back at Nevermore Academy, facing fresh supernatural threats and personal challenges. The teaser trailer hints at Wednesday Addams continuing to investigate, secrets coming up, and a jailbreak.
According to Netflix, “Wednesday Addams (Ortega) returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await.
