On the morning of August 11, the press conference for Netflix’s series Wednesday Season 2 was held at the Grand Ballroom of the Four Seasons Hotel in Jongno, Seoul. Director Tim Burton, along with lead actress Jenna Ortega and co-star Emma Myers, attended the event to share insights about Season 2.
Jenna Ortega, who reprises her role as the iconic Wednesday Addams, revealed that she has also taken on the role of executive producer for the new season. Speaking about the experience, Ortega expressed her excitement:
“It was such a great experience. I felt that our collaborative relationship naturally deepened,” she said.
The actress explained that the shift in responsibilities allowed her to be more involved in shaping the narrative. “We had many discussions about the storyline and the overall arc from a higher-level perspective. Compared to Season 1, I was much more engaged, and starting the shoot with a deep understanding of the project really helped my performance. Personally, it felt like a secret door had opened for me — it was a unique and fun experience.”
Wednesday became a global sensation after amassing over 1.7 billion viewing hours, holding the record for Netflix’s all-time No.1 Global Top 10 TV (English) title. Season 2 premiered Part 1 on August 6, with Part 2 scheduled for release on September 3.
