Wednesday Season 3 Adds Tim Burton Muse for Key Role

Netflix has announced a new addition to the cast of Wednesday Season 3: Ophelia Frump, who will be a main character. This news comes almost three months after the release of the final episodes of Season 2. While the first season was popular, Season 2 received even better reviews, earning a ‘Certified Fresh’ rating of 87% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 97 critic reviews.

Who is joining Wednesday Season 3?

Okay, huge news for fans of Wednesday! Eva Green, who you might remember from Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, and Dumbo, is officially joining Season 3 as Ophelia Frump. I’m really excited about this – Green always brings such a wonderfully dark and captivating energy to her roles, and she clearly has a great working relationship with Burton. Before that, though, you can catch her in a couple of thrillers – Blood on Snow and Just Play Dead – but I’m already counting down the days to see what she brings to the Addams family universe!

In Season 1 of the show, Ophelia was presented as Morticia Addams’ long-lost sister, possessing psychic powers like Wednesday. While she appeared on screen in the most recent season, her face remained hidden to maintain the mystery surrounding her identity. The season finale revealed a surprising twist: Ophelia wasn’t missing at all—Grandmama had been secretly holding her captive. Fans now anticipate a more significant role for Ophelia in Season 3, especially after she ominously wrote “Wednesday Must Die” on the wall of her cell, leaving viewers wondering about her motives.

Wednesday is a show directed by Tim Burton, known for films like Beetlejuice and Corpse Bride, and inspired by the characters created by Charles Addams. The series stars Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, alongside Emma Myers, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Victor Dorobantu, Isaac Ordonez, Hunter Doohan, Fred Armisen, Joy Sunday, Moosa Mostafa, and Georgie Farmer.

This season featured a star-studded cast including Lady Gaga, Billie Piper, and veterans like Steve Buscemi, Joanna Lumley, and Christopher Lloyd. Lloyd is well-known for his role as Fester Addams in the classic Addams Family films, where he appeared with Anjelica Huston and Raúl Juliá.
