Production on Wednesday Season 3 is scheduled to commence in Spring 2026, though initial plans suggested a Fall 2025 start date that has since been pushed back. Fans can expect the new season to premiere on Netflix around late 2026 or early 2027.
What to Expect in Season 3
While specific plot details remain under wraps, co-creators and showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have promised a return that delves deeper into the Addams family’s twisted legacy. As they stated, “It’s been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe.” The new season will see Wednesday unearth more of Nevermore’s sinister secrets and explore deeper into the Addams family crypt.
Cast and Production Updates
The main ensemble is expected to return, including Jenna Ortega, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Emma Myers, Fred Armisen, Joanna Lumley, and Hunter Doohan. Tim Burton will continue his role as executive producer alongside Gough and Millar, with MGM Television handling production.
Adding to the excitement, there are plans in development for a potential spin-off series. The original series has already proven its worth, becoming the most-watched original series on Netflix, with more than 250 million views and earning 12 Emmy nominations, including one for Ortega in the Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category.
