Released in November 2022, the series Wednesday became the biggest English-language success in the history of the Netflix platform. In total, more than 252 million subscribers followed the adventures of the most gothic teenager on the small screen.
Unsurprisingly, the streaming giant is set to rule this phenomenon. In addition to Season 2 – currently in production – a spin-off series is in the works.
Information that has been published on the Bloomberg website, announced that Uncle Fetid will be at the heart of this new project. It’s a surprising decision, since the character is far from the most interesting in the world of the Addams family. On Wednesday, he will appear in just one episode, the seventh, covering actor Fred Armisen.
The source clarifies that the idea is still only in the draft stage:Screenwriters must find the right story, contracts must be negotiated, and schedules must be met.” However, it seems Netflix is determined to enter the world of The Addams Family.
At the moment, the current priority is Season 2. Filming is slated for late April 2024 in Ireland, still with Jenna Ortega. The actor-turned-producer has already revealed that the sequel will be much darker and scarier. No word yet on whether director Tim Burton will return behind the camera.
Wednesday is available on Netflix.
