Wednesday Season 2
Wednesday has yet to be renewed for a second season by Netflix and the show’s green light will only come if the first season has been popular enough. The streaming platform will be giving the show a fair amount of time on air before making a call.
However, there is room for the show to grow thanks to the promise of another mystery during Season 1’s ending and the show’s billing outwith the confines of a miniseries.
In an interview with Screen Rant, co-creator Alfred Gough teased the possibility of more in Season 2 and said he and co-creator Miles Millar were “talking”:
“Miles (Millar, his fellow creator) and I are talking amongst ourselves about it. There’s definitely more that you can explore in the world of the Addamses.”
Since Season 1 took two full years to produce, from announcement to release, it’s fair to assume that Season 2 would likely debut in late 2024.
