In a confident move that shows strong belief in the future of its hit Addams Family spin-off, Wednesday,OTT has already scheduled the filming for Season 3—well before Season 2 has even aired.
According to a report in 9Meters, filming for the third season is set to begin on November 30, 2025.
This early decision highlights just how successful the supernatural teen series has become since its debut in 2022. Season 1 quickly climbed Netflix’s charts to become one of the most-watched English-language shows on the platform. The return of Jenna Ortega in the lead role as Wednesday Addams has only added to the excitement, and Netflix seems committed to making the series a long-term project.
The filming for the third season will take place once again in Wicklow, Ireland. This location was first used during Season 2, after production moved from Romania. The Irish setting, known for its dramatic and gothic landscapes, has helped to define the dark visual style of the show and will continue to serve as the backdrop for the mysterious Nevermore Academy.
Though Season 2 is still in post-production and has not yet received a release date, Netflix has already mapped out its plans for the next chapter. While specific story details for Season 3 are still being kept secret, the creators have hinted that the show will continue exploring darker themes. Jenna Ortega, who also serves as an executive producer, shared that the upcoming seasons would focus less on teen romance and more on gothic suspense and psychological drama.
The familiar faces of the Addams Family—played by Catherine Zeta-Jones (Morticia), Luis Guzmán (Gomez), and Isaac Ordonez (Pugsley)—are expected to return. Season 2 will also bring in new characters played by big names like Steve Buscemi, who joins as the new principal of Nevermore Academy, and Billie Piper, whose role is still unknown. These new characters are likely to remain important in Season 3 as the story unfolds.
There are also rumors that actress Thandiwe Newton may appear in a role connected to Nevermore’s secret past, and discussions are ongoing with music star Lady Gaga for a possible guest appearance.
While Netflix has not officially announced a release date for Season 3, industry insiders believe the new season could premiere around Halloween 2026—just in time to match the show’s spooky theme.
