Netflix’s Wednesday Season 2 wrapped with shocking twists that leave fans desperate for Season 3 answers. Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, along with the cast, have already teased that the new season will push Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) into even darker territory. Here are the biggest questions raised by the finale:
Is Aunt Ophelia Alive?
Aunt Ophelia, long thought missing, is revealed in Wednesday Season 2’s finale to be alive but locked away in Hester’s house, demanding Wednesday’s demise. Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar tease that her return will drive Season 3, exploring whether she’s a friend or foe to Wednesday, especially with their new psychic link. Morticia’s fears about her sister’s dark influence may finally come true, as Ophelia’s reappearance threatens to shake the Addams family to its core.
After a season of dropping breadcrumbs about Ophelia, Gough explains, “It was always the plan to give viewers a glimpse of her at the end of the season in a way that they weren’t expecting, and then that’s a driver into Season 3.”
What Power Does Ophelia’s Journal Hold?
In the Wednesday Season 2 finale, Morticia gifts Wednesday her sister Ophelia’s journal, revealing she’s alive. Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar call it the emotional climax of the season, symbolizing Morticia’s trust and Wednesday’s growth.
“The journal is really this sign of detente, acceptance, and embracing that Wednesday’s growing up,” Millar says. “It’s a moment of trust. It’s a big moment for Morticia. Wednesday acknowledges that.”
What Was Isaac and Francoise’s True Plan?
In Wednesday Season 2, it’s revealed that Isaac Night once built a machine to cure Hydes, but it nearly killed young Gomez and cost Isaac his life. Revived years later, Isaac and his sister Francoise trick Tyler into believing they want to save her but their real plan is to strip him of his Hyde powers, even if it kills Francoise. Tyler feels betrayed, torn between losing his identity and watching his mother sacrifice herself.
Can Wednesday Save Enid?
In Wednesday Season 2, Enid risks everything by alpha wolfing-out to save Wednesday, even though alpha werewolves can’t turn back and are hunted by their own kind. Showrunner Miles Millar says fans should be “very worried” for her, but the moment highlights their deep friendship. Emma Myers adds that Enid’s sacrifice comes from pure loyalty. Season 2 ends with Enid stuck as a werewolf in Canada and Wednesday racing to find and save her.
Is Weems Gone Forever?
At the end of Episode 8, Weems says she’s taking a “sabbatical” from being Wednesday’s spirit guide. But is she gone for good? Gough hints, “At Nevermore, nothing is ever truly forever.”
Who Will Lead Nevermore Academy Next?
With Weems gone and Dort defeated, Nevermore needs a new head in Season 3. Who will take charge? Gough teases, “The choice will really surprise you.”
