Netflix’s Wednesday Season 2 Trailer Finds Jenna Ortega Back At Nevermore And Hints At Enid Sinclair Being In Danger
TheWednesdayseason 2 trailer opens withWednesday Addams back at Nevermore Academy, but this time, she’s a hero. As Morticia Addams tells her, “This is the first time you’ve ever willingly returned to a school,” Wednesday’s peers celebrate her actions from season 1. She meets thenew principal, Barry Dort, played by Steve Buscemiwho calls her “the savior of Nevermore,” and her new classmates ask her for autographs. Although Wednesday is bored by the attention, it’s hilarious to see how everyone is reacting to her. Then, as some eerie yet playful music plays, the big mystery of season 2 is hinted at:Wednesday has a vision of Enid Sinclair telling her:
“I die because of you!”
The rest of the trailer promises a fun, exciting, and darkWednesdayseason 2 asWednesday embarks on a journey to save Enid’s life and solve the mystery.Wednesday explains that she’s in trouble, too:
“The sooner I get answers, the sooner I can save Enid. Or die trying.”
Fans had hoped for more storylines featuring Wednesday and Enid this seasonas Enid is such a beloved, smart, and likable character. It’s a joy to watch the two characters since they’re polar opposites. Previously,Emma Myers teased that her characterbecomes stronger and tougher in season 2, and from theWednesdayseason 2 trailer, that definitely seems to be the case. While Enid has maintained her happy-go-lucky and go-with-the-flow kind of personality, she’s inspired by Wednesday’s confidence and has become bolder, too. Although the season 1 finale ended withWednesday’s stalker texting her, it looks like the second season will center around Wednesday figuring out why Enid is about to die.Wednesdayseason 2 also features a new villain:the Kansas City Scalper, played by Haley Joel Osment, who will likely be part of this plotline.
OtherWednesdayseason 2 characters includeGrandmama (Joanna Lumley), Pugsley Addams (Issac Ordonez), Gomez Addams (Luis Guzmán), Dr. Fairman (Thandiwe Newton), Capri (Billie Piper), and Hunter Doohan as Tyler Galpin. A common criticism of the first season is that there wasn’t enough focus on the Addams Family. Thankfully, showrunners and co-creators Miles Millar and Alfred Gough have promised thatAddams Family history will be examined in the second season.
Wednesdayseason 2 part one will premiere on August 6th, 2025, followed by part two on September 3rd, 2025.
