The Wait for <i>Wednesday</i> Season 2, Part 2 Isn’t as Long as You Think It Is


Spoilers below.
When the credits roll at the end of Wednesday season 2, episode 4, the fate of Jenna Ortega’s titular heroine is unclear. After coming face-to-face with Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan) in Hyde form in Willow Hill Hospital, the pigtailed icon gets thrown out the window and police cars swarm the scene. There’s still a lot more to explore in this chapter of Wednesday Addams’s story, from her terrifying vision about Enid to her fraught relationship with her mom. Oh yeah, and isn’t there still a zombie on the loose?
Here’s what to know about the rest of Wednesday’s second season.
When does Wednesday season 2, part 2 come out?The second half of the season—four more episodes—premieres on Wednesday, September 3. Like most Netflix titles, they will begin streaming at 3 A.M. ET. Only four more weeks of woe before the show returns.
Who will be in the cast?We’ll likely see many of the part 1 stars, along with a few additions. Lady Gaga is expected to arrive in part 2 in a yet-undisclosed role, and so is Mansfield Park star Frances O’Connor.
Otherwise, we’ll probably see more of Ortega, Steve Buscemi (Barry Dort), Catherine Zeta-Jones (Morticia Addams), Emma Myers (Enid), Joy Sunday (Bianca), Luis Guzmán (Gomez Addams), Hunter Doohan (Tyler), Billie Piper (Capri), Isaac Ordonez (Pugsley Addams), Victor Dorobantu (Thing), Georgie Farmer (Ajax), Moosa Mostafa (Eugene Ottinger), Evie Templeton (Agnes Demille), Owen Painter (Slurp), Noah Taylor (Bruno), and Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo (Sheriff Santiago).
Additional guest stars include Joanna Lumley (Grandmama), Thandiwe Newton (Dr. Fairburn), Haley Joel Osment (Kansas City Scalper), Heather Matarazzo (Judi), Joonas Suotamo, Fred Armisen (Uncle Fester), and Christopher Lloyd (Professor Orloff).
Plus—surprise!—Christina Ricci has returned as Marilyn Thornhill. Season 2, part 1, episode 4 saw her in a violent confrontation with Tyler, but we still don’t know for sure if she’s dead. We’ll have to wait and see if she comes back (again) for season 2, part 2.
