Wednesday Addams is sticking around for a while, according to series creator Miles Millar. Season 2 of the hit Netflix series is dropping in two parts starting August 2025, and season 3 is already confirmed. But how long will the show actually run? Millar says they’ll keep going for as many seasons as Netflix allows.

Miles Millar explained he doesn’t want to box the story into a tight arc, especially considering his experience working on Smallville. Instead, the team plans to let Wednesday’s story evolve naturally. According to the screenwriter, there’s still a lot of room for the series to grow, and emphasized Wednesday herself, who showed just a hint of emotional evolution in season 1. Here’s how Miles sees the show moving forward:
“We’ll take as many seasons as Netflix wants to give us because we made a mistake with Smallville at one point. We had a five-year plan, and then the show went on for 10 years. So we’re not going to get out in front of that. But we certainly have a plan for season three and beyond, ways to keep evolving the character and follow her journey into adulthood.”
She would never leave you hanging.

Still, time is ticking. Jenna Ortega plays a 16-year-old, but with two years between seasons, it won’t be long before that feels off. The show will eventually have to move beyond the Nevermore Academy setting. Just like Smallville moved past high school and into adulthood, Wednesday might need to grow up, too. But for now, fans can still watch happily, with the Netflix hit premiering part one on August 6 and part two on September 3.
