Netflix’s official handle, X, also joined in on the excitement, revealing some exciting additions to the cast. Prepare for double snaps as Christopher Lloyd, Steve Buscemi, and Thandiwe Newton, among others, join the eerie ensemble.
Unfortunately, not all familiar faces will be returning. Percy Hynes White, known for his role as Xavier Thorpe in the first season, won’t be making a comeback.
However, fresh blood in the form of Billie Piper, Evie Templeton, and others ensures that season two will be anything but predictable.
The first season of “Wednesday” was a monstrous success, captivating audiences with its unique blend of macabre comedy. Garnering an impressive 12 Emmy nominations and clinching four awards, it’s no wonder fans have been eagerly awaiting the next installment.
However, eager fans had to endure a nail-biting wait due to Hollywood strikes in 2023, causing delays in production. But fear not, for the wait is finally over, and the creators Al Gough and Miles Millar are back at the helm as executive producers and writers.
