In need of some actual good (and gothy) news? Well, Lady Gaga is reportedly joining the cast of Wednesday for season 2 — the highly anticipated next cycle of the hit Netflix series.
Considering what a huge viral success the dance number set to her song "Bloody Mary" was in the first season, it honestly makes a ton of sense! Moreover, the world of Wednesday — and The Addams Family as a whole — just feels like a perfect fit for Mother Mother herself.
Will Gaga be a professor at Nevermore Academy, like maybe an instructor in the music department, or a drama teacher, perhaps? Or will a monster burst out of Wednesday's closet… hopefully right alongside her?
According to a report from Entertainment Weekly, all details of Gaga's role on Wednesday are as of yet unknown. However, she is reportedly set to film her season 2 appearance in Europe.
Like we said, details are slim, but it's worth noting that this casting news is something that Wednesday star Jenna Ortega had already been dreaming of.
The actress told Variety at the Golden Globes in January 2023, "I'm sure Netflix would love that," adding that she had some ideas for what that role could be. "I think Mrs. Thornhill and Wednesday had this weird mentor relationship or kind of understood each other in a certain way, so, if Lady Gaga were to be a part, I think it would have to be two monsters that understand each other."
Honestly, that sounds pretty amazing, we would love to see it — along with another dance number. Perhaps to Gaga's latest bop, "Disease"?
As if we weren't already hyped for Wednesday season 2, knowing that Mother Monster will be there… that's just the bloody cherry on top!
Wednesday season 1 is now streaming on Netflix.
