Alright, Wednesday fans, gather around the cauldron! The gothic queen of Netflix, Wednesday Addams, has everyone buzzing about what’s next after Season 2’s wild ride. With Part 2 of Season 2 dropping on September 3, 2025, the big question is: Is Wednesday Season 3 a go? What’s the deal with the release date, cast, and those creepy plot twists? Here’s the full scoop, straight from the shadows of Nevermore Academy, with every detail known so far.
Is Wednesday Season 3 Really Happening?
Oh, it’s happening, and it’s gonna be gloriously grim! Netflix gave the green light for Season 3 on August 20, 2025, before Season 2 even finished its run. Talk about confidence! No shock there—Season 1 was a monster hit, snagging 341 million hours viewed in a single week, making it Netflix’s top English-language series ever. Jenna Ortega’s deadpan stare and that viral dance? Pure magic.
Co-creator Miles Millar spilled some tea to Netflix’s Tudum, saying Season 3 will dig deeper into the Addams Family, with “more family members and secrets” to unravel. Showrunner Alfred Gough chimed in, promising to make Season 3 the creepiest, kookiest yet. So, buckle up for more Nevermore chaos and Addams weirdness!
When’s Wednesday Season 3 Hitting Screens?
No official release date yet, but let’s play detective. Season 2 took almost three years to arrive after Season 1 (November 2022 to August 2025), thanks to pesky Hollywood strikes in 2023. Good news? Season 3’s production is moving faster. Filming’s set to start in November 2025 in Wicklow, Ireland, where those eerie Nevermore vibes come to life. Some Reddit sleuths whisper about a possible delay to spring 2026, but November’s the plan for now.
Season 2 went from filming (May 2024) to premiere (August 2025) in about 15 months. If Season 3 follows suit, expect it around early 2027—maybe February or March. A Halloween 2026 drop would be chef’s kiss for the spooky aesthetic, but that’s just wishful thinking. If filming slips to 2026, 2028 might be more realistic. Either way, the wait won’t feel like an eternity in a haunted attic this time.
Who’s Back for the Season 3 Cast?
No full cast list yet, but the Nevermore gang’s core is likely returning to stir up trouble. Here’s who’s expected to haunt the halls again:
- Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, the snarky queen herself, also pulling double duty as a producer.
- Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, now a series regular for extra gothic mom vibes.
- Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, also a regular, serving quirky dad energy.
- Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams, the pesky brother with a knack for chaos.
- Emma Myers as Enid Sinclair, Wednesday’s rainbow-bright werewolf BFF (Wenclair fans, rejoice!).
- Joy Sunday as Bianca Barclay, the siren with attitude.
- Georgie Farmer as Ajax Petropolus, Enid’s gorgon crush.
- Moosa Mostafa as Eugene Ottinger, the bee-loving outcast.
- Fred Armisen as Uncle Fester, maybe getting more screen time for his zany antics.
- Victor Dorobantu as Thing, the sneaky hand stealing every scene.
- Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo as Deputy Ritchie Santiago, keeping the law in check.
What’s the Plot for Wednesday Season 3?
Plot details are locked tighter than a crypt, but a few breadcrumbs hint at what’s coming. Season 2 follows Wednesday chasing a vision of Enid’s death, tied to the spooky Willow Hill Psychiatric Facility and Tyler Galpin’s Hyde chaos. Season 3 will likely pick up after Season 2, Part 2’s finale, diving into a new mystery at Nevermore.
Millar’s promise of “more Addams Family members” and “family secrets” suggests Morticia, Gomez, or even kooky relatives like Cousin Itt could steal the spotlight. Wednesday’s psychic powers, complete with those creepy black tears, are bound to level up, facing new supernatural baddies. Season 2 went full horror with slasher vibes, thanks to Jenna Ortega pushing for less romance and more gore. Season 3’s expected to crank up the dark, twisted stakes, maybe exploring Nevermore’s sinister history or new eerie locales.
