The official trailer for the second season of the series Wednesday has been released, with Jenna Ortega returning in the lead role.

In the clip released by Netflix, Wednesday is seen with black tears streaming down her face. Her mother Morticia, played by Catherine Zeta-Jones, asks her: “I know what those tears mean. What did you see?” To which Wednesday softly replies: “Enid dies, and it’s my fault.” The scene then shifts to a cemetery, where Wednesday stands before a tombstone that reads, “In memory of Enid Sinclair.” Enid suddenly appears, shouting, “I died because of you!” as she grabs Wednesday by the throat.

In the background, Wednesday’s voice narrates: “Secrets are the foundation of the Addams family. The sooner I find answers, the sooner I can save Enid — or die trying.”

According to the official synopsis, Wednesday returns to Nevermore Academy, where she must solve a new supernatural mystery while facing old enemies, new threats, and intense family dilemmas — all infused, of course, with her signature biting humor.

The show once again bears the distinctive mark of Tim Burton, who returns as executive producer and director. Jenna Ortega also takes on the role of producer for the first time, underscoring her deep connection with the character.

In addition to returning cast members like Riki Lindhome, Jamie McShane, Hunter Doohan, Percy Hynes White, and Emma Myers, season two introduces several new additions. Among them are Billie Piper, Steve Buscemi, Thandiwe Newton, Christopher Lloyd, Lady Gaga, Anthony Michael Hall, and many more.

Part one of the second season will premiere on August 6, with part two set to be released on September 3.
