Wednesday Season 2 Showrunners Expect Wednesday Addams Survival After Fall

The Season 2 Part 1 finale of Netflix's Wednesday left fans shocked with the apparent death of Jenna Ortega's Wednesday Addams after being thrown from a high window by Tyler in his Hyde form. Showrunners Miles Millar and Alfred Gough explained that while Wednesday experienced a significant fall, the character will likely survive, with Millar emphasizing that "she is Teflon" and predicting her return in Season 2 Part 2, which premieres on September 3, 2025. The show also introduced a reimagined Grandmama Addams, played by Joanna Lumley, portrayed as a refined woman and mother of Gomez rather than Morticia, expanding the focus on the female characters. Additionally, Season 2 clarifies Gomez Addams’ status as the only core Addams family member without powers, with his electrokinetic abilities skipped over to Pugsley and Uncle Fester, highlighting Wednesday's psychic powers derive mainly from her maternal Frump lineage. Gomez remains a key figure, blending comic relief and romantic moments, such as his dramatic serenade in a camp shower scene that contrasts with supernatural chaos. These developments deepen the family dynamics and set the stage for the upcoming episodes.
