After her remarkable portrayal of the titular character in Wednesday Season 1, Jenna Ortega will be back as Wednesday Addams in the upcoming season of the hit Netflix series.

"Nothing is what it seems in Season 2," creator Miles Millar told Tudum. "Wednesday goes into this season thinking she knows Nevermore. It's the first time she's returned to a school willingly. But as soon as she gets back, nothing happens that she's expecting. She thinks she's going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, and she doesn't."

Emma Myers will reprise her role as Wednesday's roommate, Enid Sinclair, in Wednesday Season 2.

In an April interview with Variety, Myers confessed she was initially "scared to go back" to the franchise.

"Because I remember watching scenes of myself from Season 1 and being like, 'I don't know if I can re-create this now. It's been so long,'" she admitted. "But when we got to the table read, it immediately came back, like nothing had changed. I think I've lived with Enid for so long, it comes very naturally now."

"I think it's so natural for her and Wednesday to have a little bit of competition. I'm really excited to see their friendship bloom alongside that," Sunday said of her and Ortega's characters.
