What a week for fans of deadpan delivery, gorgeous costumes, and morbid vibes! After a torturous wait, the second season of Netflix hit Wednesday is finally streaming, with four episodes sure to get your blood pumping.
The show has started to trend even before it premiered, and the first season made a comeback in the streamer’s Top 10 charts. Season 2 will likely occupy the top spot very soon.
But what about season 3? Are there any whispers on the horizon? Here’s what we know so far.
Wednesday Season 3 Release Date
Not to worry, Wednesday has been renewed for additional episodes. While the entire Addams clan will be back, no information as to when is available at the time of writing.
Season 2 of the series was split into two parts. The first four episodes are now streaming, and Part 2 will arrive on September 3. Your 2025 semester at Nevermore isn’t over just yet.
Netflix announced that Wednesday season 3 is happening ahead of the season 2 premiere, noting that “bad things come in threes.” Fun!
However, fans will likely have to settle in for a longer-than-usual hiatus. Season 1 premiered in 2022, with the second dropping three years later, in 2025. At best, we estimate that the third outing won’t be here until 2027 at the earliest.

What Could Happen in Wednesday Season 3?
Wednesday revolves around the titular character, Wednesday Addams, the brilliantly morbid daughter of the Addams family. She joins Nevermore, a peculiar academy for outcasts, vampires, werewolves, and other creatures.
Once there, Wednesday becomes entangled in a series of murders plaguing the local town. Soon, she finds herself at the centre of a supernatural mystery.
In season 2, the heroine returns to the Gothic halls of the school after spending her summer tracking a serial killer. However, her newfound celebrity status brings unwelcome complications. A new principal revives old traditions, a mysterious stalker lurks in the shadows, and she’s plagued dangerous psychic visions.
As to what might happen in Wednesday season 3, it’s a little soon to speculate. Season 2 Part 1 ends with a cliffhanger. The remaining four episodes, which arrive in September, might shed light on what the future might bring.
One thing’s for sure: the family’s rich history will continue to be explored in future installments. “We will be seeing more Addams Family members and learning more family secrets in Season 3!” co-creator and showrunner Alfred Gough said.
We’re rotting with anticipation.
