Wednesday Is Keeping an Eye Out for Trouble: Season 2 Official Trailer

With Part 1 set to hit Netflix on August 6th, here's the official trailer for Jenna Ortega and Emma Myers-starring Wednesday Season 2.

With less than a month to go until the first part of Season 2 hits our screens, fans of star/EP Jenna Ortega, director/EP Tim Burton, and Showrunners/EPs Al Gough and Miles Millar's Wednesday have been learning a lot about what the new season has to offer – especially when it comes to the changes in Nevermore under the rule of Steve Buscemi's Principal Dort. But now, we're getting our best look yet at the dangers ahead for Wednesday (Ortega), Enid (Emma Myers), and the others as old Addams Family secrets are unearthed and new threats exposed with the release of the official trailer, which we have waiting for you above.

Here's a look at the latest image gallery release for the series' return, followed by the first six minutes of the season opener:

Here's a look at what the "new" Nevermore Academy has to offer (normies need not apply), followed by what else we know about the return of the hit streaming series:

Here's what Ortega, Burton, Gough, Millar, and others shared about the second season, along with some great new looks at what's to come. Following that, we look back at some previously released previews for Netflix's Wednesday Season 2:

Along with Ortega's Wednesday Addams, the Addams Family portrait image and video that Netflix released during its Upfronts presentation also included a look at Isaac Ordonez's Pugsley Addams, Victor Dorobantu's Thing, Luis Guzmán's Gomez Addams, Catherine Zeta-Jones' Morticia Addams, Joanna Lumley's Grandmama Hester Frump, Joonas Suotamo's Lurch, and Fred Armisen's Uncle Fester.

This season, Wednesday Addams (Ortega) returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await, leaving her to navigate family, friends, and old adversaries as they propel her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery. Don't forget that the season will be split into two parts – with Part 1 of Season 2 debuting on August 6th, followed by Part 2 on September 3rd. Now, here's a look at that "family portrait" video, followed by some additional Season 2 previews:

Emma Myers "Was Kind of Scared" About Season 2 Return

"I was kind of scared to go back because I remember watching scenes of myself from Season 1 and being like, 'I don't know if I can re-create this now. It's been so long.' But when we got to the table read, it immediately came back like nothing had changed. I think I've lived with Enid for so long it comes very naturally now," Myers shared during a profile interview with Variety. "Also, there's no harm in changing things up because [Enid] has changed over the summer. She's grown, and she's become more comfortable with herself." That's a perspective on Enid that Ortega also shared, adding that Myers' character is "a bit more of a badass this time around" and that "it's interesting how, while Wednesday will never admit it if she doesn't have to, she really does have a friend."

As for the actors who won't be returning for the second season, Myers notes that the direction in which the scripts and storylines travel during Season 2 will allow them to deal with any issues that might arise smoothly. "I feel like the script goes in a very specific direction that it's not a big worry. This season, especially, is so character-driven, and there's so much happening. It just makes so much sense to have the characters we have and to have the story we have. I think fans will appreciate it," Myers explained.
