Even before Season 2 of the Addams Family spin-off Wednesday arrives early August, Netflix has recomissioned the series for a third year.

Creators/Writers/Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar noted: “It’s been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe – one deadpan quip at a time. We’re beyond thrilled she’ll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in Season 3. 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.'”

Bela Bajaria, Netflix Chief Content Officer, added “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. 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.”

In Season 2, which arrives in two tranches on August 6 and September 3, Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), “returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await.  Wednesday must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery.”

In an interview with THR with Tim Burton and star Jenna Ortega there are hints at wider plans for the franchise.
