Woe there, outcasts! Do you feel this chill run on your spine? It is your first indication that wednesday returns for another season with supernatural adventures and scary mysteries. The 2nd season of the scary series will premiere in two places on Netflix, with the 1st part premiere on August 6 and the 2nd half followed on September 3.
A new teaser takes us back to the Nevermore Academy, where Jenna Ortega returns as the homonymous wednesday addams. And the knives - not to mention, ironing, swords and hydes - are out, as it begins the next chapter of the teenage detective. "The most exciting thing is that we can see it again," Orttega, who is also a producer this season, tells Tudum. "Wednesday addams is one of the most beautiful characters of all time, so having the opportunity to play it once was incredible, and then I can get back in the suit and tone is very fun. She circles around everyone who talks to her, so placing someone who is so smarter than you will ever become is funny and strange and enjoyable. "
This year, Wednesday meets a new member of the Adams family at school: her little brother Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez), who begins his own journey to Nevermore. Their parents, Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and Gomez Addams (Luis Guzmán), will also have an increased presence at school-a rare new form of torture for the wild independent amateur detective.
"Season 1 really focused on Wednesday, but you got to know the other characters, but you didn't get to know them in depth, and now we have the opportunity to expand their stories and broaden the field and range of the series," says creator Alfred Gough to Tudum about this upcoming chapter. Indeed, teaser leaves implications for some locations that have never seen before and presents some new faces along with well -known loved ones, such as Wednesday's roommate, Enid (Emma Myers), the enemy Bianca (Joy Sunday), Barista in the day and killer Hyde at night Tyler (Victor Dorobantu).

However, if you think you know what to expect from Wednesday's karagiozilikas - prepare. "Nothing is what looks like in season 2," says creator Miles Millar in Tudum. "Wednesday is entering this season thinking that he knows Nevermore. It is the first time she returns to a school with her will. But as soon as it comes back, nothing is waiting for. He thinks he will have control, that he knows where all the carcasses are buried and he doesn't. " After all, what would be fun in this?
Take a shovel and start digging through the photos below - and tune in to Wednesday's 2nd season, when the 1st part arrives on Netflix on August 6, if you dare.

"Your family at school is the worst possible thing, isn't it?" Says director and executive producer Tim Burton in Tudum. "I never wanted my parents to come to school. Wednesday is an even more extreme version of it. The bumped Pugsley. It's something like outcasts between outcasts, so I sympathize with it. He comes to Nevermore for the first time, so we see his school experience. Everyone has their own special power, and he is new to his own. It just explores its newly acquired teenage forces. "

Joanna Lumley is added to the cast as Hester Frump, Morticia's complex mother and Wednesday's closest ally.
"The idea of bringing Hester, Morticia's mother, in the game this season was something that excited us a lot," says Millar. "On the first day on the plate, when Joanna entered the plate, she was simply Esther, and he succeeded every attack, and it is so delicious. It's perfect and hilarious. This Wednesday-HESTER relationship is unique- you see a glow in the eyes of both when they are together on the screen. I think everyone will fall in love with Hester. "
Lumley tells Tudum about her integration into the cast: "There is always something exciting when you work for Tim Burton. His whole mind travels him to a different world and the world they have created here for Wednesday and Nevermore and the family are simply intoxicating. It's great. I can wear many, many huge wigs, on top of each other - and a lot of restrictive clothes, so I love it. "
Steve Buscemi is the director Dort Helen Sloan/Netflix
Following the heroic death of Director Wems (Gwendoline Christie) in the first season's finale, Nevermore needs new leadership. The director Barry Dort, played by Steve Buscemi, enters. "Steve brought a new energy to this season," Burton says. "You can feel when people love to see someone working and respecting one's job. The same for me. I really enjoyed every day because it was fun and creative. "
Buscemi tells Tudum: "I was always a fan of the Addams family - the films, the television series, and I was a big fan of Wednesday, so I was very excited when I learned that I was interested in playing the new NEVERMORE director. Barry Dort is a mysterious figure. Something about it is not right, but he loves school and has real pride for outcasts. "

The shocking revelation that sweet Tyler barista was actually a Hyde and the monster behind the murder of the murder in Season 1 further shaken Wednesday's already weak ability to trust anyone around her. You can watch an excerpt of their creepy reunion in season 2 here.

Cara Mia, that's romance! "Bringing the family to Nevermore was an obvious move for us for yet another thorn on the side of Wednesday - more conflict for this character," says Millar. "And the mother-daughter relationship between Wednesday and Morticia is really the central relationship of the series."

Where would Wednesday be without her trusted and literally right hand? "Thing has a lot of emotional luggage and injuries to treat," Ortega says of everyone's favorite component.
Hi, Uncle Fester.
Fred Armisen returns as a uncle of wednesday, always a precursor to the next disagreement. "Fred is the most lovable person and likes to play this role and gives him so much humor," says Gough. "This year, we were able to expand its role, from which you just got a taste of season 1."
The 2nd season of Wednesday will premiere on August 6th and September 3rd only on Netflix.
