Netflix's wildly popular series Wednesday is gearing up for its highly anticipated second season, and fans have just been treated to some exciting casting news. Heather Matarazzo, known for her roles in The Princess Diaries and Scream 3, is joining the Addams Family universe in an undisclosed role.
The announcement has sparked speculation among fans, with many wondering whether Matarazzo will play a friend or foe to Jenna Ortega's deadpan Wednesday Addams. Given the show's penchant for dark humour and supernatural intrigue, her character is sure to bring fresh energy to the macabre comedy.
What We Know About Season 2
While plot details remain tightly under wraps, Season 2 is expected to delve deeper into Wednesday’s psychic abilities and her complex relationships at Nevermore Academy. With Tim Burton returning as executive producer, viewers can expect more gothic aesthetics and twisted storytelling.
Heather Matarazzo’s Career Highlights
Matarazzo rose to fame as the awkward yet endearing Dawn Wiener in Welcome to the Dollhouse, earning critical acclaim for her performance. Since then, she has built a diverse career across film and television, making her a compelling addition to the Wednesday ensemble.
Production for Season 2 is set to begin later this year, with a likely release date in late 2025. Until then, fans can revisit the first season, which became one of Netflix’s most-watched shows of all time.
