Netflix releases first look at Wednesday season 2

It's been a long wait since Wednesday first came to our screens - two years and three months to be precise.

Well that wait is... still ongoing, but Netflix have now released a first look at season two as Jenna Ortega returns as Wednesday Addams.

You're in the minority if you haven't seen Wednesday yet with it being the most watched show on Netflix of all-time globally - it's been viewed 252,100,000 times, and with a runtime of six hours 49 minutes, that equates to 1,718,800,000.

Yes, more than a billion hours has been spent viewing the show, in fact to help you resonate with that time, that's 196,210 years - which that same time in the past is around when ancient humans developed language and wooly mammoths still roamed the Earth.

In case you’re not up to date, the first season of Wednesday follows the titular character who attends Nevermore Academy and tries to solve a murder mystery.

As well as Ortega, season one regulars, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán, will be returning as Wednesday's parents Morticia and Gomez Addams.

Other stars from the first season will be returning too, like Emma Myers, Isaac Ordone, and Joy Sunday. Fred Armisen, who played Uncle Fester, and Jamie McShane as Sheriff Donovan Galpin will also be returning in guest roles.

Of course, it's a new series so there's gonna be a few new faces, with Steve Buscemi, Joanna Lumley, Thandiwe Newton and Christopher Lloyd all set to join.

And there's a surprise addition in the form of Lady Gaga.

However, who and what role she'll be playing in the show is still under wraps, as Entertainment Weekly reported last year that she was currently filming the series in Europe.

When season one of Wednesday first premiered, clips of Ortega dancing on the show went viral after they were spliced together with Gaga's 2011 hit 'Bloody Mary' from her 'Born This Way' album.

Ortega also previously spoke on the 38-year-old potentially joining the show, telling Variety at the 2023 Golden Globes: "I'm sure Netflix would love that.

"I think Mrs Thornhill [Christina Ricci's character on Wednesday] and Wednesday had this weird mentor relationship or kind of understood each other in a certain way. So, if Lady Gaga were to be a part, I think it would have to be two monsters that understand each other."

Showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar told Netflix's Tudum: "Our goal this season was to discover some fresh faces as well as invite some acting legends we’ve always admired to join Jenna and the gang at Nevermore.

"When we survey the talent we’ve assembled, we could not be more thrilled. Mission accomplished."

A release date is not yet confirmed, but season two of Wednesday is set to drop on Netflix this year.
