Wednesday Season 3 Wynona Ryder Reunion Tease

Jenna Ortega, who portrays the titular character, will reunite with Winona Ryder after Ryder joins the cast of Wednesday Season 3.

The duo previously appeared on screen in Tim Burton's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, a film that Wednesday creators and showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar co-wrote with Seth Grahame-Smith. Gough and Millar teased what fans can expect in the third season during a recent interview about the reunion.

Ryder will play a character named Tabitha in Season 3 of Wednesday, after returning as Lydia Deetz in the 2024 sequel to Beetlejuice. In that film, Ortega played her daughter Astrid Deetz. Gough was very clear in a ScreenRant interview that they couldn’t reveal much about Tabitha, but Millar did reveal that Ortega and Ryder have scenes together in the next chapter.

“Yeah. So she’s part of the world, but that’s all we can say,” Millar added. The screenwriting duo, who have previously worked on The WB series Smallville, shared how their experience of working with characters from the Superman comics helped them deal with the inhabitants of the Addams Family franchise.

A trailer for season 3 has not yet been released; however, there have been some announcements regarding the plot and cast. Season 3 of Wednesday will time-travel to her senior year, suggesting that Wednesday will likely depart Nevermore if there are additional seasons (which is highly probable).

We also know that big names are being added to the cast: Eva Green, Winona Ryder, Lena Headey, and Andrew McCarthy, though we don’t know all the roles they’re playing yet. We do know that Eva Green is returning as Aunt Ophelia, who has similar powers of precognition to Wednesday and will play a major role in the season 3 storyline.
