Lady Gaga is set to make an appearance in “Wednesday” Season 2, Variety has confirmed with sources.
The exact nature of Gaga’s role is being kept under wraps, but sources say it will be a cameo during the megahit show’s second season. “Wednesday” Season 2 is currently filming in Ireland. Sources say that the production team had tried to get Gaga on the show for a larger role in Season 2, but that ultimately did not work out.
Reps for Netflix did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment.
This will mark the latest acting role for Gaga, who is best known for her groundbreaking music career. Most recently, she starred in “Joker: Folie à Deux” opposite Joaquin Phoenix. Previously, she was nominated for the Academy Award for best actress for her starring alongside Bradley Cooper in “A Star Is Born.” She has also been nominated three times for best original song, including one for “A Star Is Born,” winning that award for her work on the song “Hold My Hand” from “Top Gun: Maverick.” Gaga has also starred in films such as “House of Gucci” and multiple seasons of “American Horror Story.”
She is repped by CAA, Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, and ID PR.
Jenna Ortega will once again star as the beloved “Addams Family” character Wednesday Addams, while Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Isaac Ordonez, and Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo have all been upped to series regulars for Season 2.
Zeta-Jones plays Morticia, while Guzmán plays Gomez and Ordonez plays Pugsley. Emma Myers, Joy Sunday, Hunter Doohan, Victor Dorobantu, Moosa Mostafa, and Georgie Farmer will also be returning, as will Fred Armisen and Jamie McShane in guest roles. Other new series regulars include Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter and Noah Taylor. Thandiwe Newton will appear in a guest role, as will actors like Christopher Lloyd and Haley Joel Osment.
“Wednesday” originally debuted in November 2022 and instantly became a massive hit for Netflix. It ranks as the most-watched English language show the streamer has ever released and was nominated for 12 Emmys, winning four. Work on Season 2 was delayed due to the writers’ and actors’ strikes that shutdown much of Hollywood in 2023.
