Wednesday season 2, part 1 releases on August 6, 2025 on Netflix. We anticipate the first batch of episodes to drop at midnight Pacific/3:00 AM Eastern in line with past major Netflix releases (and, more importantly, the witching hour). That's 8:00 AM BST in the UK.

With Weems’ departure, season 2 introduces a new headmaster: Barry Dort, played by Steve Buscemi. Described as a principal “incredibly into Nevermore,” Barry Dort is expected to infuse the school with a unique energy.

Here's everything we know about "Wednesday" season 2, including when it premieres on Netflix and who's joining the cast.
