Wednesday Season 3 has finished filming and is now in post-production, giving fans a clearer picture of what comes next. Jenna Ortega returns as Wednesday Addams, while Winona Ryder joins the cast as the mysterious Tabitha. Eva Green also appears as Aunt Ophelia Frump, Morticia Addams’ sister. Netflix has not announced an official release date, though ScreenRant reports that a 2027 premiere is expected.
How Will Jenna Ortega and Winona Ryder Reunite in Wednesday Season 3?
The biggest casting update is that Jenna Ortega and Winona Ryder will share scenes in the new season. Ryder previously worked with Ortega in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which was also written by Wednesday creators Al Gough and Miles Millar. Their reunion now brings another strong Tim Burton connection into the Netflix series.
Miles Millar confirmed the pairing, saying, “She’s obviously on screen with Jenna. Yeah. So she’s part of the world, but that’s all we can say.” Al Gough would not reveal more about Tabitha, simply saying, “I can’t.”
- Winona Ryder’s role: Ryder plays Tabitha, but her connection to Wednesday and the Addams family remains secret.
- Eva Green’s role: Green plays Ophelia Frump, Morticia Addams’ sister.
- Creator reaction: Millar said seeing Eva Green, Jenna Ortega, and Winona Ryder together was “just kind of amazing.”
- Family lore: Gough said the team enjoys expanding the Addams family world because the existing mythology leaves room for new ideas.
- Creative approach: Millar summed up that freedom by saying, “We create our own map.”
