Netflix officially announced its blockbuster series renewal on January 6, 2023. In the announcement video for Wednesday season 2, Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams expressed elatedly, “Over the past few weeks, I’ve been hunted, haunted, and mimicked millions of times across the internet. It’s been pure torture. Thank you.” Upon being an instant Tiktok sensation and grossing billions of views online, Tim Burton’s Wednesday became a deadpan IT-girl on its own.

Here’s what we know so far about Wednesday Season 2 cast and crew

Jenna Ortega is leading the cast as Wednesday Addams. The series also stars Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia; Luis Guzmán as Gomez; Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley; Emma Myers as Enid; Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo as Deputy Ritchie Santiago. Furthermore Moosa Mostafa, Joy Sunday, Victor Dorobantu, Hunter Doohan, and Georgie Farmer will also be returning to the Nevermore Academy in Wednesday season 2.  

Fred Armisen and Jamie McShane are among those who make guest appearances in the series. Emmy-winning actor Steve Buscemi is also set to be a part of the Addams family show.

One notable absence from the lineup was Percy Hynes White who played Xavier Thorpe in the first season. In 2023 there were allegations of sexual assault on his social media accounts which led to controversy surrounding him that perhaps ensured he would not feature in this upcoming season.
