Teaser Trailer: “Wednesday” Season 2

Netflix has premiered the first trailer for the highly anticipated second season of its smash hit dark comedy/horror series “Wednesday”.

In addition, they’ve announced the air dates for the new run with ‘Part 1’ coming on August 6th and ‘Part 2’ coming on September 3rd. It’s expected the new season will again be eight episodes but it’s not clear how many will be in each part.

Jenna Ortega returns as Wednesday Addams and is joined by four returnees who’ve been upgraded to regulars for the new season – Luis Guzmán and Catherine Zeta-Jones as her parents Gomez and Morticia, Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley and Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo as Ritchie Santiago. Also back are various classmates from Emma Myers to Hunter Doohan.

Also joining the cast for the new run are Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Noah Taylor, Evie Templeton, Joanna Lumley, Thandwie Newton, Frances O’Connor, Haley Joel Osment, Heather Matarazzo, Christopher Lloyd and Lady Gaga.

The new season will be darker, more daring and have more of a horror tone than the first, eschewing the high school romance angle. Alfred Gough and Miles Millar (“Smallville”) are the writers and showrunners, with Tim Burton executive producing and directing several episodes.

The first season remains Netflix’s most-watched English-language series along with scoring four Emmy wins from twelve nominations.
