Lady Gaga's first role since her ill-fated turn in Joker: Folie à Deux is a cameo in Wednesday Season 2, Variety reports. Entertainment Weekly was the first to have the news that she would be joining in an undisclosed role. Lady Gaga's appearance follows a meme that went viral in the wake of Wednesday Season 1, in which Jenny Ortega's Wednesday Addams dances to a sped up version of 2011's Bloody Mary.

The meme was part of Wednesday's massive in debut in 2022, which saw it shatter Netflix records and equal Stranger Things 4 despite middling reviews . @ladygaga BLOODY WEDNESDAY #fyp ♬ original sound - heyy For Season 2, Wednesday's showrunners apparently tied to get Lady Gaga onboard for a larger role, but ultimately had to settle for a cameo. She joins a guest star line-up that includes Haley Joel Osment and Christopher Lloyd, with a main cast that adds Steve Buscemi among others .



Not much is known about Wednesday Season 2's story, though it will apparently ditch romance in favor of more horror , with Ortega saying it will be "bolder, more dark" this time around. We wrote in our original review of Season 1, "Wednesday introduces a whole new generation to the Addams family with creepy and kooky hijinks and an incredible performance from Jenna Ortega. Some tertiary characters struggle from weak writing while more interesting players are kept on the sidelines, but it’s not enough to bog down the series too much.

Wednesday Season 2 is slated to release sometime in 2025. Photo by Neilson Barnard/Getty Images Kat Bailey is IGN's News Director as well as co-host of Nintendo Voice Chat. Have a tip? Send her a DM at @the_katbot.
