Most of us can say that waiting for updates on "Wednesday" season 2 has been painful. Even though the next season is in production , not much has been revealed about its potential release date, along with what to expect when this Netflix show hits the small screen again. However, Jenna Ortega (who portrays Wednesday Addams) has recently dropped a few small hints about where season 2 is headed.
When speaking with Vanity Fair , Ortega said: "I think the feel that we’re going for is a little bit more horror-inspired." She also referred to The Masque of the Red Death as an inspiration for the upcoming season, which is the 1964 movie based on an Edgar Allan Poe short story. Since Ortega is assuming a bigger role in the creative process for season 2, it makes sense for her to take inspiration from other movies and shows that are known for being dark.
Ortega then continued: "Not to say that suddenly we’re the goriest show of all time. I mean, there’s six-year-olds watching. [For example], we’re doing this thing now where Wednesday just kind of appears.
She is a little bit of a jump scare herself." Anyone who has watched an adaptation of "The Addams Family" knows that Wednesday Addams has a distinct personality, embodying macabre charm and deadpan humor that make her eerily compelling (or “kooky” if you prefer). Her presence as a "jump scare" throughout the second season will undoubtedly heighten the creepiness, and her unsettling demeanor will certainly leave other chara.
