The second season of Netflix’s Wednesday came to a close earlier this week, and with season three on the way, creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have just one objective: “Make it the best season of [the show] we possibly can, and continue digging deeper into our characters,” according to Millar.
In a recent Tudum blog, the duo teased some things viewers can expect the third time around. While keeping mum on spoilers, they told audiences to examine season two’s final episode, which lays “a nice breadcrumb that leads audiences to wonder…what the new adventure for Wednesday will be.” Things ended with Nevermore Academy shut down, giving Wednesday the freedom to go with with Fester and Thing to find Enid up north. But finding her missing ahem, friend isn’t the only thing she’ll have to contend with: in the episode’s final moments, Wednesday’s maternal aunt Ophelia, who she previously had a vision about, used her blood to write of the Addams’ daughter’s death.
What’s coming for Wednesday that Ophelia knows about? Millar and Gough didn’t say, but they promised viewers would see and learn more of the Addams’ extended family. More light will also be shed on Nevermore—maybe paving the way for a spinoff starring another Addams? Either way, Millar and Gough called the show “such an alchemy of writing, directing, acting, crew, streamer, studio, and fans. We remain grateful and excited to continue this journey and tell these stories with all of our partners.”
No release window for Wednesday season three yet, but we’ll have more on it as news emerges.
