Apr 17, 2024 11:11 AM

Steve Buscemi has reportedly joined the cast of the Netflix series "Wednesday" season 2, with speculation that he may portray the new principal of Nevermore Academy. His roles in "Monster, Inc." and as a youth detective on 30 Rock might lend themselves well to the series' mix of creepy and comedic tones. Jenna Ortega will return in the lead role and also serve as an executive producer, hinting at a shift towards more horror and action-packed storylines for the upcoming season. The show, with ties to the creators of "Smallville," Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, has no official release date but enjoys a strong following, with the first season having received a Netflix DVD and Blu-ray release.

What role will Steve Buscemi play in Wednesday season 2?

Though not officially confirmed, it's believed that Steve Buscemi may play the new principal of Nevermore Academy in the second season of Netflix's "Wednesday".

"Wednesday" is a continuation of the Addams Family universe, focusing on the character Wednesday Addams as a student at Nevermore Academy. As a spinoff from the iconic series, the Addams Family, which originated in the cartoons by Charles Addams published in The New Yorker in 1938, "Wednesday" offers a modern take on the macabre and quirky nature of the family. With a narrative that weaves the supernatural with teen drama, the addition of Steve Buscemi may add further intrigue and experience to the beloved character's story. The expectation for season 2 to delve deeper into horror elements aligns with the Addams Family's long-standing association with the genre, potentially bringing a fresh energy to the well-established franchise.
