How long will the episodes of Wednesday Season 2 be?
So far, Netflix hasn’t released this information; however, it’s expected that the episodes in the second season will have similar runtimes to those in Season 1—between 50 minutes and one hour.
What will Wednesday Season 2 be about?
In this new season, the story delves deeper into Wednesday’s personal connections, especially with her mother and her inseparable friend Enid. Co-creator Miles Millar revealed that the protagonist will face complex relationships that will test her ability to trust others. Though Wednesday believes she’s in control, she soon discovers that human emotions are far more complicated than she imagined.
Over the summer, Wednesday has been training her psychic powers with the Goody Addams Spellbook, but something goes wrong—her visions begin to fail, and she cries black tears. Can she still trust what she sees? Romance takes a back seat, and horror is ready to take over Nevermore Academy.
