Netflix’s Wednesday has officially wrapped Season 2 with the release of its final episodes on September 3, 2025, leaving fans buzzing over the shocking twists, revelations about the Addams family, Wednesday’s psychic powers, and the surprising survival of Aunt Ophelia. While the finale provided some closure, it also set the stage for more mysteries, prompting viewers to ask: “What’s next?”
The good news is that Wednesday Season 3 is officially confirmed. Netflix renewed the series in August 2025, just before the second part of Season 2 premiered. Co-creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar revealed in a Tudum interview that the Season 2 finale was deliberately crafted as a “breadcrumb” leading into the next chapter. Alfred teased that Season 3 will be “the darkest chapter of the Addams family yet,” promising even deeper secrets and surprises for fans.
While there’s no official release date for Season 3, WhatsOnNetflix reports suggest that filming and production will not begin immediately. Based on past schedules, Season 3 could realistically arrive in 2027. Jenna Ortega is expected to reprise her iconic role as Wednesday Addams, and more of the Addams family will likely take center stage. Season 2 left several plot threads unresolved, including Wednesday’s relationship with Tyler (Hunter Doohan), her complicated bond with her grandmother, and the future of her psychic abilities.
Additionally, Nevermore Academy will need new leadership following the deaths of Principal Weems (Gwendoline Christie) and Dort (Steve Buscemi). Alfred hinted that viewers will be “very surprised” by who fills these roles. Aunt Ophelia, now revealed to be alive and hidden away by Grandma Hester Frump, is set to play a significant role in Season 3, along with other family secrets yet to be uncovered.
Since its November 2022 premiere, Wednesday has been Netflix’s most-watched series within its first 90 days, catapulting Jenna Ortega to global stardom. The series combines gothic mystery, supernatural thrills, and dark comedy, following Wednesday Addams as she navigates life at Nevermore Academy while unraveling secrets tied to her family. The show also stars Emma Myers, Hunter Doohan, Joy Sunday, Moosa Mostafa, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and more.
Season 3 promises to dive deeper into the Addams family’s dark past while exploring Wednesday’s evolving powers and relationships—making the wait well worth it for fans.
