Season 2 of “Wednesday” will follow the Addams family daughter (Jenna Ortega) through a mission to save her roommate, Enid (Emma Myers), from impending doom.
In a trailer for the Season, Wednesday’s face is streaked with black tears. “I know what those tears mean. What did you see?” asks Wednesday’s mother, Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones). Quietly, Wednesday replies, “Enid dies and it’s all my fault.” The scene cuts to Wednesday’s vision: She’s in a graveyard next to a headstone that reads “In memory of Enid Sinclair,” and Enid appears, putting her hands around Wednesday’s throat and shouting, “I died because of you!” In voiceover as the trailer continues, Wednesday says, “Secrets are the bedrock of the Addams family. The sooner I get answers, the sooner I can save Enid — or die trying.”
The teaser also shows Wednesday’s return to Nevermore Academy, where she meets the school’s new leader, Principal Dort (Steve Buscemi), and a gaggle of fangirls who are obsessed with her, led by Agnes (Evie Templeton).
Along with releasing the teaser, Netflix has set a global press campaign called the “Doom Tour,” which will see the “Wednesday” cast and creators promote Season 2 not only in the U.S., but in England, Poland, Italy, France, Romania, Canada, South Korea and Australia.
“Wednesday” was created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, who also serve as showrunners. The pair executive produces alongside director Tim Burton, Steve Stark, Andrew Mittman, Tommy Harper, Karen Richards, Kayla Alpert, Jonathan Glickman, Gail Berman and Meredith Averill. Paco Cabezas and Angela Robinson also serve as directors.
