“So what are you waiting for? Seize your chance to join the new Nevermore! Because Nevermore is never better!” Netflix has debuted a fun promo trailer for Season 2 of the hit series Wednesday featuring a tour of the “new” NeverMore Academy. This video introduces us to Steve Buscemi as Barry Dort, the new principal of NeverMore. The first season launched in 2022 and became a major hit. In this second season, Wednesday Addams returns to Nevermore Academy. She “must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery.” Creator / showrunners Alfred Gough & Miles Millar return for the spine-tingling second season, alongside exec producer & director Tim Burton. Jenna Ortega stars again, joined by Steve Buscemi, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Emma Myers, Joy Sunday, Luis Guzmán, Hunter Doohan, Billie Piper, & Moosa Mostafa. Plus guest stars: Jamie McShane, Joanna Lumley, Joonas Suatamo, Fred Armisen, Christopher Lloyd, Thandiwe Newton. I’m just happy seeing Buscemi embrace his kookiness again with this role. Enjoy.
