WednesdaySeason 2 is finally right around the corner. The spooky horror comedy series fromTim Burtonis set to return to Netflix later this summer and the streamer’s TUDUM event just released thefirst six minutesof our second semester at Nevermore Academy over the weekend.Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams is back in full force. Despite the actress saying the character would hate themarketization of her gothic world,Wednesdayis getting new figures from NECAthat’ll make fans snap twice.
Announced over the weekend in anticipation of Wednesday’s new footage, NECA unveiled they will be releasing three Wednesday figures.A part of the popular toy company’s Ultimate seven-inch scale horror line, this includes two figures of Wednesday and one for her colorful werewolf roommateEnid, played in the show byEmma Myers. Enid will be seen in the normal purple Nevermore Academy uniform, while Wednesday will have her custom black Nevermore uniform. She’ll also have a figure with her iconic black and white polka dot dress. Thing is even joining the monstrous fun in this collection. These now joinWednesday’s previously releasedToony Terror figures from NECA. The full reveal for this set will appropriately be this Wednesday (June 4th) at 2 PM on NECA’s online store.
Wednesday Has Become a Pop Culture Icon
While Ortega is far from the first actress to makeWednesday Addams a household name, the character taking center stage for the first time in this series certainly helped her popularity.This has causedWednesday to be on everythingfrom blankets to t-shirts. Something that would certainly make this bleak teen want to die. She would probably be torturing NECA’s figures for some sort of demented satisfaction too.
However, all this has made a new generation fall in love withThe Addams Familyuniverse. Just like with the 90s films starringChristina Ricci, Wednesday has given the franchise the jolt it so desperately needed. Season 2 won’t be letting its growing list of merchandise get in the way either. It will have a larger focus on horror and explore parts of theAddams Familytree that fans haven’t seen before. The cast is expanding too, with the likes ofLady GagaandSteve Buscemijoining the ranks of Nevermore Academy this season. Maybe NECA will make some ghoulish figures of their new characters sometime down the morbid line.
