Netflix Renews Wednesday for Season Three

Netflix has picked up Wednesday for a third season ahead of its season two premiere, with part one airing August 6.

“It’s been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe—one deadpan quip at a time,” said Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, the show’s creators, writers and showrunners in a joint statement. 

“We’re beyond thrilled she’ll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in season three. This time, she’ll unearth more of the school’s sinister secrets—and descend even deeper into the Addams family crypt. Or, as Wednesday would say: ‘Nothing brings a family together like a good exhumation.’”

“The undeniable impact of Wednesday resonated immediately with fans worldwide, driving it to the top of our charts as our most popular English language TV show, and sparking cultural trends,” said Bela Bajaria, chief content officer at Netflix. “We are so proud of Al Gough, Miles Millar, Tim Burton, Jenna Ortega and the entire Wednesday cast and crew for everything they’ve accomplished. On the heels of its highly anticipated season two return, we are thrilled to renew the iconic series for a third and to deliver more of what the fans love.”
