It’s again to Nevermore for Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), and this time there are some further our bodies tagging alongside. The most recent trailer for Wednesday’s second season offers us a take a look at extra of the Addams Household’s function within the sequence alongside just a few callbacks to the lore of the franchise that everyone knows and love.
Within the wake of the chaos that she left behind in her first yr at Nevermore, Wednesday arrives to a campus stuffed with fanatics—together with red-headed Wednesday copycat Agnes DeMille (Evie Templeton), who makes one other look afterward within the trailer with Enid (Emma Myers)–and a brand new principal within the type of Barry Dort (Steve Buscemi). Principal Dort is lifeless set on righting the ship that Principal Weems (Gwendoline Christie) left behind together with her premature demise by the hands of Ms. Thornhill (Christina Ricci) and there’s no doubt that his chipper perspective will rub Wednesday the flawed manner.
It appears that evidently part of Dort’s mission to encourage togetherness and “outcast satisfaction” at Nevermore entails a return to nature (for one more spherical of the Poe Cup, maybe?) as we see Wednesday utilizing a crossbow to zipline all the way down to a tower that appears over a campsite that’s dwelling to a number of tents, together with one that appears to belong to the remainder of the Addams household. This Wednesday in all probability isn’t going to aim to burn anybody on the stake like her Addams Household Values counterpart (additionally, not coincidentally performed by Ricci), however there isn’t any doubt that she’s gotten again into one other tangled mess that comes with being a Nevermore scholar.
The explanations for the prominence of the Addams Household in season 2 have develop into extra clear. Not solely is Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez) attending Nevermore alongside his sister, however Wednesday’s prophetic visions have intensified. Now, they depart her crying black tears, and he or she has began to see a gravestone with Enid’s identify on it, with a bloody, vision-version of Enid grabbing her neck and screaming “I die due to you!” in Wednesday’s face. Regardless of their generally tense relationship, Wednesday seeks out Morticia’s assist, and it appears like Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) could have skilled an identical tragedy throughout her time as a Nevermore scholar.
