Back in September, Netflix offered a sneak peek into the forthcoming second season of Wednesday . The behind-the-scenes video showed only slivers of glimpses into the show’s wicked return — and for good reason. Jenna Ortega , who plays the titular role, warned: “If we showed you any more, your eyes would bleed.
” Fittingly, Wednesday has recruited a special guest with a long history of startling on-screen appearances: Mother Monster herself, Lady Gaga . According to Variety , the musician and actress will make a cameo appearance when the series makes its awaited return. Additional details about the role have not yet been disclosed, though it appears to have been in the works for a while.
It has been reported that producers were aiming for Gaga to join the show in a larger capacity, but ultimately settled for a more limited appearance. The seeds for Gaga’s Wednesday appearance were planted in December 2022, when her Born This Way deep cut “Bloody Mary” went viral . There was a scene in season one where Ortega performed a self-choreographed dance to the Cramps’ “Goo Goo Muck,” but some users on social media thought “Bloody Mary” was a better fit.
Gaga herself participated in the viral trend, sharing a TikTok performing the dance to her own song. “Slay Wednesday!” she wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “You’re welcome at Haus of Gaga anytime (and bring Thing with you, we love paws around here).
