The first trailer for Wednesday season 2 promises to follow up on the mysteries that were previously set up and pave the way for new stories.
Netflix has released the trailer for Wednesday season 2. The trailer begins with Wednesday going through what looks like airport security while an eerie version of "My Favorite Things" plays. When she sets off the alarm, she has to remove a series of weapons from her body as the security guards look on, puzzled. Wednesday then returns to Nevermore and is greeted excitedly by Enid. The trailer then goes through a series of eerie images, including creepy dolls. Netflix announced that Wednesday will be released in two parts, launching part 1 on August 6 and part 2 on September 3.
What This Means For Wednesday Season 2
Netflix Has Used A Two-Part Release Strategy Before
Wednesday season 1 was released all at once in fall 2022, but season 2 will take a different approach. Netflix has previously employed this multipart strategy for some of their most popular shows, including Bridgerton and Stranger Things. The intention of the two-part reveal is to boost viewership for the series, as audiences anticipate the remaining episodes. Wednesday season 1 was record-breaking in of viewership, so it seems likely that this release strategy could work for season 2.
Why The Addams Family Appears So Little In Wednesday (& Will That Change In Season 2?)
Netflix’s Wednesday is based on the legendary Addams Family franchise, yet most of the family is nowhere to be seen, leaving viewers wondering why.
In of content, the Wednesday season 2 trailer highlights the show's use of dark humor. Wednesday is idiosyncratic in how she shows affection for people, gifting her roommate Enid a doll with the catch that it is crafted out of human hair. The trailer also hints at the ghouls awaiting Wednesday on her return to Nevermore Academy, showing a series of monsters, bees, and other threatening imagery. These images are coupled with the darkly funny tone to create the classic Wednesday feel that characterized the debut season.
Our Take On The Wednesday Season 2 Trailer
Wednesday's Release Strategy Is Smart
Wednesday's release strategy is likely to be a huge success for the series as it can capitalize on being an end-of-summer release. The previous installment of the show had a fall release, but with the series appealing to school-aged children up through adults, summer will probably be an ideal time for it to drop. The trailer itself looks appealing, hinting at mysteries to come and new challenges for the dour protagonist. If they pull it off, Wednesday season 2 could be an even bigger success than season 1.
