News summary

Netflix's 'Wednesday' returns for its second season, continuing the supernatural teen drama's blend of gothic style and murder-mystery intrigue, with Jenna Ortega reprising her critically acclaimed role as Wednesday Addams. The season introduces British star Joanna Lumley as Grandma Hester Frump, Morticia Addams' formidable and wealthy mother who runs the Frump Mortuary empire, adding new family tensions and darkly comedic dynamics. Lumley's character is described as emotionally cold, immaculately coiffed, and razor-tongued, playing a significant role in the unfolding mystery and family drama at Nevermore Academy. The series is co-produced and partially directed by Tim Burton, whose distinctive baroque style complements the show's eerie aesthetic and complex characters. Alongside Lumley, other notable new cast members include Thandiwe Newton and Steve Buscemi, expanding the show's intriguing ensemble. Overall, season two promises to deepen the macabre and kooky atmosphere that made the show a streaming hit, while delivering fresh supernatural challenges and character developments.
