Stop everything! Netflix has just released a new glimpse of Wednesday Season 2, which arrives darker and more complex than the first. This new chapter promises a more intense dose of mysteries and emotional conflict. Want to know what it’s about? Here’s what the official trailer revealed.
What will Wednesday Season 2 be about?
In this new season, the story delves into Wednesday’s personal relationships, especially with her mother and her inseparable friend Enid. According to co-creator Miles Millar, the protagonist will face complicated relationships that will test her ability to trust others. Although Wednesday believes she’s in control, she soon discovers that human emotions are more complex than she thought.
Over the summer, Wednesday trained her psychic abilities with the Goody Addams Spell Book, but something goes wrong: her visions start to fail and she cries black tears. Can she still trust what she sees? Romance has been pushed aside, and horror is ready to take over Nevermore Academy.
