Lady Gaga Joins Netflix Wednesday Season 2 Cast

Netflix's "Wednesday" season 2 premiered its first part on August 6, featuring Jenna Ortega's return as Wednesday Addams and introducing several new cast members including Steve Buscemi as Principal Barry Dort, Billie Piper as Hester Frump, and Thandiwe Newton. Lady Gaga joins the show as Rosaline Rotwood, a legendary Nevermore teacher, but her character does not appear until the second part of the season, which releases in September. The showrunners have kept details of Gaga's role tightly under wraps, though her character's name is linked to a cottage on campus and she will cross paths with Wednesday. Gaga's involvement was inspired by the viral popularity of the season 1 dance set to her song "Bloody Mary," and she will also contribute a new song, "Dead Dance," featured in the show. The season 2 storyline promises new mysteries and challenges at Nevermore Academy, with a shift in leadership style under Buscemi's character and the introduction of family tensions through Billie Piper's role as Morticia's estranged mother. Fans eagerly await Gaga's part 2 debut while continuing to explore the eerie and star-studded world of the Addams Family spinoff.
