The hit Netflix series expanded the Addams Family universe once again when Season 2 returned almost three years after its record-breaking debut in November 2022.This season, Jenna Ortega reprised her role as Wednesday Addams, who returns to Nevermore Academy as something of a reluctant hero.

Split Release: Netflix dropped the season in two parts — Part 1 premiered on August 6, 2025, while Part 2 released on September 3, 2025.
Shocking Finale: Tyler’s transformation into the Hyde left fans reeling. In one of the most dramatic moments, he killed Marilyn and attacked Wednesday, leaving her bloodied and unconscious in the woods.

Season 3 promises to raise the stakes even higher.
Here’s what we can expect:
