The Addams family is officially making a comeback in Wednesday season 2, and it’s going to be bigger, bolder, and weirder than ever—straight from Gomez Addams himself, Luis Guzmán.

Netflix’s hit gothic comedy, created by Tim Burton, took the world by storm in late 2022. Centered around the dark and brilliant Wednesday Addams (played by the incredible Jenna Ortega), the show carved its own path by focusing on her mysterious time at Nevermore Academy rather than sticking to the traditional Addams Family mansion.

But fans had one big question after season 1: Where was the rest of the Addams family?

Luis Guzmán Confirms: “Oh, Absolutely” – More Addams Family in Season 2

In some interviews, Luis Guzmán—who plays the charmingly eerie Gomez Addams—dropped a major tease about what’s to come in season 2. When asked whether we’ll see more of Gomez, Morticia Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones), and Uncle Fester (Fred Armisen), Guzmán didn’t hesitate:

“Oh, absolutely. I thought the first season was amazing… They didn’t just go into a different orbit—they went into a different galaxy.”

He went on to praise the series’ vision, Tim Burton’s direction, and the “incredibly gifted” cast, making it clear that Wednesday season 2 will raise the bar in every way.

What to Expect from Wednesday Season 2

The first season of Wednesday focused heavily on its title character, leaving iconic characters like Pugsley, Morticia, and Fester with minimal screen time. Uncle Fester, for example, only appeared in one episode. While fans adored the show’s moody vibe and quirky storytelling, some felt the absence of the larger Addams family dynamic.

But that’s all about to change.

With season 2 on the horizon—and new cast members like Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Lady Gaga, and Noah Taylor joining the mix—it’s clear Netflix is going all-in. A brief glimpse of the family in the season 2 trailer, where they drop Wednesday off at Nevermore, has already reignited excitement and speculation about their expanded roles.

Why Season 2 Is the Perfect Time to Dive Deeper into the Addams Family

Season 1 had to spend time building Wednesday’s world—her friendships with Enid, Bianca, and Tyler, the mysteries of Nevermore Academy, and the supernatural storyline. Now that the foundation is set, season 2 has room to bring the classic Addams Family members back into the spotlight.

Audiences are already familiar with the core supporting cast, which means there’s more freedom to develop stories around Gomez, Morticia, Pugsley, and Fester without sacrificing pacing or character depth. It’s the perfect blend of nostalgia and new-age storytelling.

Final Thoughts

Wednesday season 2 is shaping up to be a massive event, and if Luis Guzmán’s hints are anything to go by, we’re not just returning to Nevermore—we’re heading into a whole new galaxy of Addams Family weirdness.

With Tim Burton’s vision, a powerhouse cast, and a deeper dive into the iconic family we’ve loved for decades, this next chapter could be even bigger than the first.
