Variety broke the news about Steve Buscemi joining the cast of “Wednesday” season 2, adding that while specific character details are under wraps, the actor will likely play “the new principal of Nevermore Academy,” the school Wednesday found herself at in season 1. I’ll admit I haven’t watched “Wednesday” season 1, but I love me some Buscemi, and he seems like the perfect actor to fit into an Addams Family-centric world. His many credits include “Fargo,” “The Death of Stalin,” “The Big Lebowski,” the recent TV series “Miracle Workers,” and more. I could go on and on, but c’mon: you know who he is and what he can do.
Beyond that, we know that season 2 of “Wednesday” plans to shake things up. For one thing, the second season is going to get rid of any romantic interests for Wednesday. Jenna Ortega confirmed this herself, saying: “We’re ditching any romantic love interest for Wednesday, which is really great … We’ve decided we want to lean into the horror aspect of the show a little bit more.” She added: “Because it is so lighthearted, and a show like this with vampires and werewolves and superpowers, you don’t want to take yourself too seriously.” As for Ortega, she reunited with “Wednesday” director Tim Burton for the sequel “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” which is due out on September 6, 2024. “Wednesday” season 2 does not have a premiere date just yet.
