Season two of Wednesday, the Addams Family series centered on Jenna Ortega’s rendition of the macabre titular character, will see Lady Gaga in at least one of the upcoming episodes.
Entertainment Weekly broke the news that the singer-actor is currently filming for the show in Europe, though what role she is taking on remains unknown.
In addition to being a singing sensation, Lady Gaga has several acting credits under belt, including starring in the recent Joker: Folie á Deux as well as A Star is Born and House of Gucci. She also, of course, performed with the Muppets (pictured above) in Lady Gaga and the Muppets Holiday Spectacular, a 90-minute masterpiece I’ll be watching this Thanksgiving and every Thanksgiving after.
Lady Gaga isn’t the only big name joining Wednesday for season two. Steve Buscemi has joined the cast as the principal of the boarding school, Nevermore, and Billie Piper is a new series regular as well. Other confirmed guest stars include Joanna Lumley, Thandiwe Newton, Christopher Lloyd. Frances O’Connor, Haley Joel Osment. Heather Matarazzo, and Joonas Suotamo (best known as Chewbacca). They join Ortega and the returning cast, which includes Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia, Luis Guzmán as Gomez, Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley, and Emma Myers as Wednesday’s pastel-loving bestie, Enid.
No news yet on when Season Two of Wednesday will start streaming on Netflix.
