The Addams Family-inspired hit returns for more dark mysteries—before Season 2 even premieres.

July 23, 2025: In a bold and unexpected move, Netflix has renewed its hit supernatural comedy Wednesday for a third season—before the second season has even premiered. The decision reflects the streaming giant’s strong confidence in the show’s continued success and growing fandom.

Early Renewal Sparks Buzz

Season 2 of Wednesday is set to be released in two parts, with the first dropping on August 6 and the second on September 3, 2025. Despite no episodes from the new season airing yet, Netflix has already greenlit a third installment, suggesting the platform sees long-term potential in the Addams Family spinoff.

A Record-Breaking Start

Season 1 was a phenomenal success, shattering viewing records with over 341 million viewing hours in its debut week. It quickly became Netflix’s most-watched English-language series at the time. That kind of momentum, coupled with a passionate global fanbase, makes the early renewal less surprising.

Creative Expansion Ahead

Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have hinted at a multi-season arc since the beginning. With Season 2 diving into darker territory, including deeper family secrets and chilling visions, there’s much anticipation about where Season 3 will take Wednesday Addams. There’s also buzz about potential spinoffs featuring fan-favorite characters.

More Mysteries to Come

Season 2 promises new twists and fresh faces—including rumored appearances by major stars like Lady Gaga. As the series continues to blend gothic horror with teen drama and supernatural suspense, fans can expect even more of what made Wednesday a worldwide phenomenon.

The announcement of Season 3 ensures that the eerie charm of Nevermore Academy and its mysterious student body isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
