Netflix's Wednesday was renewed for another season back in January. The second season of the hit show is set to start filming in April 2024 in Ireland.

The record-breaking first season originally debuted last November on Netflix – breaking multiple streaming series records, including most hours viewed for an English language series in its first week with over 341 million hours. The series was shot in Romania from September 2021 to March 2022.

The show follows Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams as she enrols at Nevermore Academy. According to the official first season description, Wednesday “attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorised the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.”

The first season featured Gwendoline Christie, Jamie McShane, Percy Hynes White, Hunter Doohan, Emma Myers, Joy Sunday, Naomi J. Ogawa, Moosa Mostafa, Georgie Farmer, Riki Lindhome, and Christina Ricci. Catherine Zeta-Jones also appeared as Morticia Addams alongside Luis Guzmán as Gomez and Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley.

Alfred Gough and Miles Millar – who developed the series, also served as co-showrunners and executive producers. Tim Burton directed the first four episodes and executive produced the first season alongside Steve Stark of Toluca Pictures, Andrew Mittman of 1.21 Entertainment, Kevin Miserocchi of the Tee and Charles Addams Foundation, Kayla Alpert, Jonathan Glickman of Glickmania, Gail Berman, Tommy Harper and Kevin Lafferty. MGM Television is the studio.
