Jenna Ortega, best known for her role as Wednesday Addams, has been nominated for an Emmy, fueling anticipation for the upcoming second season of Wednesday. While Season 2 production is expected to begin soon, it is dependent on the outcome of the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike and the potential Screen Actors Guild (SAG) strike.
Jenna Ortega’s Emmy nomination and return as Wednesday Addams have fueled anticipation for the show’s upcoming second season. During TUDUM 2023, a Season 2 teaser was released, giving fans a taste of what’s to come. According to reports, Jenna Ortega confirmed her involvement in Season 2 and revealed that production is currently in its early stages. In addition, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas revealed that Wednesday Season 2 will begin filming in the autumn. Christopher Lloyd hinted at a possible appearance in the new season in an interview with Yahoo. These updates show that work is being done to make Wednesday Season 2 a reality.
While fans eagerly await the release of Wednesday Season 2, it is unlikely to happen before 2023. From the end of production to the release on Netflix, the first season took about eight months. Season 2 production has yet to begin, so the wait for the new season is expected to last until 2024. Furthermore, the ongoing WGA strike and the possibility of a SAG strike may cause further delays in the production and release of Wednesday Season 2. The outcome of these negotiations will have a significant impact on the timeline, so the exact release date is currently unknown.
As Wednesday Season 2 approaches, fans can expect additional updates and announcements as production progresses. With Jenna Ortega as both the lead actress and producer, the new season of the beloved series promises to bring more horror and character development. However, due to potential strikes and other factors, Wednesday Season 2’s release date may be pushed back until 2024.
