Along withlearning more about Wednesday’s scary stalker, it’s clear that Enid will get the spotlight in the new season. If Enid is stronger in the second season, then perhaps she joins forces with Wednesday in the quest to locate the stalker, or she could do some sleuthing of her own without even telling her friend.Myers previously said “I like season 2 better than season 1,“which is intriguing.
Myers also shared that she was “scared” to play Enid again but reprising her role “comes very naturally now.” WhileAddams Family fans familiar with Wednesday Addamsmight not have pictured the character having a close friend, Myers gave an impressive performance inWednesdayseason 1. Wednesday and Enid’s scenes are compelling, charming, and relatable.

As Ortega noted, Wednesday would likely never tell anyone that she has made a genuine friend. But just like Wednesday encourages Enid to lean into her real self, Enid inspires Wednesday to be proud of who she is as well. Fans look forward to seeing more of Wednesday and Enid’s friendship inWednesdayseason 2 along withthe eerie Nevermore Academy setting, more sarcastic Wednesday quotes, and a new mystery.Wednesdayseason 2 will stream on Netflix in 2025, but there is no release date as of now.
