Lady Gaga has been confirmed to join the cast of Wednesday Season 2 on Netflix. 

Although details of her character remain under wraps, her involvement follows a resurgence in popularity for her 2011 hit Bloody Mary after fans linked it to a viral dance scene by the show’s lead, Jenna Ortega.

The track became an anthem for Wednesday fans after Ortega’s dance went viral on social media, creating an unexpected bridge between the pop icon and the show’s gothic feel.

Ortega, who portrays Wednesday Addams, had previously voiced her hope for Gaga to join the series. 

Currently filming in Europe, Season 2 is expected to expand the world of Nevermore Academy and its surrounding supernatural mysteries. Lady Gaga’s involvement adds another dynamic to the show.

Since its debut, Netflix’s Wednesday has become a cultural marvel. Gaga’s casting feels kismet with the show’s darkly stylish and eccentric vibe, and fans are hopeful she’ll make a memorable addition to the storyline.

Gaga is currently working on her highly anticipated seventh solo album, set for release in February 2025. The album, introduced by the lead single Disease in October, follows her recent success with two Grammy nominations for her collaboration with Bruno Mars on Die With a Smile.

Netflix has yet to announce a release date for Season 2, leaving fans to speculate on Gaga’s role and the twists in store for Wednesday Addams in the eerie world she inhabits.
