While details surrounding Gaga’s character remain mysterious, sources reveal she’s currently filming her scenes in Europe. This adds another layer of excitement to a show that already boasts a stellar cast, including Jenna Ortega as the titular Wednesday Addams, navigating the complexities of school life with her unique psychic abilities.
Previously, Ortega expressed her desire to see Gaga join the cast, suggesting a storyline where they portray “two monsters that understand each other.” This potential dynamic aligns perfectly with both actresses’ ability to portray captivatingly dark and eccentric characters. Gaga’s experience in projects like season five of “American Horror Story: Hotel,” which won her a Golden Globe, positions her perfectly for her role in “Wednesday.”
Gaga’s addition bolsters the already impressive ensemble cast, which also features Gwendoline Christie, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Christina Ricci, the iconic Wednesday Addams herself. With filming underway, anticipation for Season 2 continues to grow. Will Gaga portray a friend or foe to Wednesday? Only time will tell, but one thing’s sure: Wednesday’s spooky world became much more intriguing.
