Who Is The New Addams Family Member In Wednesday Season 2?
By RAFAEL MOTAMAYOR
During a Netflix promotional video for "Wednesday," stars Emma Myers, Hunter Doohan, and Joy Sunday confirmed that Season 2 will be introducing a new Addams family member.
"But we don't know who," added Doohan. The video also shows Jenna Ortega, who plays the titular character, explaining that she would "love to see Cousin Itt."
Since the show plans to expand on Wednesday's Latina background, inspired by Ortega’s own, viewers might meet family members from her father Gomez Addams’ (Luis Guzmán) side.
It remains to be seen if his character will return, but Guzmán is game for more Gomez. Perhaps Grandmama Addams, Gomez’s mother and a witch, will also make
an appearance.
"Wednesday" could introduce an original character, just as the 1993 film introduced a new brother to Wednesday and Pugsley in the hilariously cute mustachioed baby Pubert Addams.
This would give the show an opportunity to expand on Gomez's heritage in hilarious ways without taking away from the canon. Or maybe Ortega will get her wish and see Cousin Itt.
