‘Wednesday’ Star Promises “A Lot More” of a Beloved Addams Family Member in Season 2

Netflix fans can look forward to more excitement at Nevermore Academy when Season 2 of Wednesday arrives later this summer. Although not many details about the new season have been revealed yet, Isaac Ordonez, who plays Pugsley Addams, Wednesday’s younger brother, has shared some insights in an interview with ScreenRant.

Ordonez, 16 years old, explained that Pugsley’s role will be bigger this time around. He said that since Pugsley arrives at Nevermore with his own supernatural powers, Wednesday starts to see him differently. “I think that now that he has powers, Wednesday has gained a little more respect for him,” Ordonez said.

However, he also mentioned that Wednesday still treats him like a useful tool for her investigations. He added that their sibling relationship remains typical and awkward, just like before. “They’re still your average siblings; they’re awkward. That remains the same, because Wednesday doesn’t change.”

The actor revealed that fans will see many new sides of Pugsley in Season 2. While the first season showed his emotional side, this season will explore his quirky and mischievous personality more.

Ordonez also mentioned Pugsley’s struggles at Nevermore, saying he feels lonely and has a hard time making friends. “When he gets to Nevermore, he is very lonely. He’s having a hard time making friends, so we do get to see that. I do play around with that.”

In the first season, Wednesday arrives at Nevermore as an outsider but quickly joins the student body to solve a dangerous crime. The season ended with Wednesday using her psychic powers to defeat the villain Joseph Crackstone. It’s still unclear how Pugsley’s powers will affect the story in Season 2, but it’s clear that his relationship with Wednesday will be an important part of the show.

Many familiar faces will return for the new season, including Fred Armisen, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Christina Ricci. New cast members like Thandiwe Newton and Steve Buscemi are also joining the series. The show is created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, who are also the co-showrunners. Tim Burton is an executive producer along with others. Jenna Ortega, who plays Wednesday, will also serve as an executive producer for Season 2.

Fans can watch the new season when it premieres in two parts on August 6 and September 3, 2025.
