Part one of Wednesday, season two, will be released on Netflix at 8am (BST) on Wednesday (August 6).
The second season will see the return of Jenna Ortega (Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Death of a Unicorn and Scream) as Wednesday Addams.
While fellow cast members, including Catherine Zeta-Jones (Morticia Addams), Luis Guzmán (Gomez Addams), and Emma Myers (Enid Sinclair), will also be back for the new season.
They will be joined by new faces like Joanna Lumley (Grandmama Hester Frump), Steve Buscemi (Principal Dort), Billie Piper (Isadora Capri) and Christopher Lloyd (Professor Orloff).
Ahead of the release of Wednesday, season two, we have rounded up everything you need to know, from how season one ended and the new-look cast, to the upcoming episode titles and whether or not there will be a season three.
How did season 1 of Wednesday end? (SPOILERS)
The first season of Wednesday remains the most-viewed English-language series on Netflix of all time.
The finale saw Wednesday Addams (Ortega) confirm her suspicions that Tyler (Hunter Doohan) is the Hyde terrorising Nevermore Academy.
She also discovers the hidden identity of Tyler’s master – Marilyn Thornhill, aka Laurel Gates (Christina Ricci).
Wednesday eventually wins out over the pair and saves Nevermore.
Season one ends with Ortega’s character driving away from school with her family, armed with her very first mobile phone.
In the last scene of the finale, she receives multiple texts from an unknown contact.
“The Stalker” sends a few photos of Wednesday with her love interests, a Memoji-style gif of a Wednesday avatar being stabbed in the head, and a text reading, “I’m watching you.”

Ortega, speaking to Netflix’s Tudum, said: “We ended Season 1 with a stalker that was still after me. Tyler has been sent to a psych ward, and half the school is burnt down.
“We start off Season 2 with Wednesday being kidnapped.”
What time does Wednesday come out on Netflix?
Fittingly, part one of Wednesday, season 2, will be released on Wednesday (August 6).
The first four episodes of Wednesday (season 2), which make up part one, will be available to watch in the UK on Netflix from 8 am.

When does Netflix release shows?
What to expect in the new Wednesday series?
In the new season, Wednesday Addams (Ortega) must “navigate family, friends, and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem”, Netflix explains.
Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery.
Co-creators, showrunners, and executive producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, speaking to Tudum, added: “Wednesday goes into this season thinking she knows Nevermore.
“But as soon as she returns, nothing happens the way she’s expecting.
“She thinks she’s going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, but she doesn’t.
“Nothing is what it seems in Season 2.”

Will there be a Wednesday season 3?
Wednesday has already been renewed for a third season, Netflix has confirmed.
Co-creator and showrunner Alfred Gough said: “[Co-creator and co-showrunner] Miles [Millar] and I have been doing this long enough to know that shows like this don’t come along every day.
“It’s 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.”
Netflix said season three promises to go “even further, on every level”.

Gough continued: “Our goal for Season 3 is the same as it is for every season: to make it the best season of Wednesday we possibly can.
“We want to continue digging deeper into our characters while expanding the world of Nevermore and Wednesday.”
Miles Millar added: “We will be seeing more Addams Family members and learning more family secrets in Season 3!”
