"I'm gonna dance, dance, dance..."

In a thrilling development for fans of Netflix’s Wednesday, Lady Gaga is set to join Jenna Ortega in the highly anticipated second season of the hit series.

The pop icon and acclaimed actress will appear alongside Ortega, who reprises her role as the enigmatic Wednesday Addams.

While specific details about Gaga’s character remain under wraps, her involvement has already generated significant excitement among viewers.

The collaboration between Gaga and Ortega is particularly noteworthy given their previous indirect connection.

Following the release of Wednesday‘s first season, a viral TikTok trend emerged where fans paired Ortega’s dance scene with Gaga’s 2011 track “Bloody Mary.”

This unexpected fusion led to a resurgence in the song’s popularity, even prompting Gaga herself to participate in the trend by recreating the dance on her social media platforms.

The second season’s production is underway in Europe, with Gaga actively filming her scenes.

The series debuted in 2022 and offers a fresh take on the iconic Addams Family, focusing on Wednesday’s formative years at Nevermore Academy.

Beyond her acting endeavours, Gaga is also working on her seventh solo album, slated for release in February 2025. The lead single, “Disease,” was released in October 2024 and has already garnered critical acclaim.

As production progresses, more details about Gaga’s character and the season’s plot are expected to emerge.

Wednesday Season 2 is set to premiere on Netflix in 2025.
