Emma Myers, who plays Enid in Netflix’s “Wednesday,” expresses a preference for season 2 over the successful first season. Following the show’s debut in 2022, Enid became a fan favorite. Myers, alongside Jenna Ortega, will return, with new cast members including Joanna Lumley and Lady Gaga. She hints at exciting Easter eggs and fulfilling character arcs in the upcoming season. Despite the hefty expectations built on the first season’s success, which garnered over 1 billion viewing hours, Myers believes the new narrative will captivate fans, particularly emphasizing the show’s central friendships over romantic plotlines.
Wednesday actress Emma Myers expresses her preference for season 2 of the popular Netflix series over the first season’s landmark achievements. Taking on the role of the vibrant werewolf roommate to Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams, Myers’ character Enid Sinclair quickly won over fans after the show’s release in 2022. In addition to Myers and Ortega, several other cast members will reprise their roles, while the new season promises to introduce an exciting array of fresh faces, including Joanna Lumley, Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Thandiwe Newton, Christopher Lloyd, and Lady Gaga.
In an interview with ScreenRant regarding A Minecraft Movie, which is set to hit theaters on April 4, Myers discussed her eagerly awaited return as the spirited Enid in Wednesday season 2. She indicated that she has a preference for Wednesday season 2 compared to the inaugural season, and shared that this upcoming chapter will include a variety of Easter eggs and rewarding character arcs. Here are her thoughts:
I genuinely like season 2 more than season 1. There are plenty of cool little Easter eggs. I believe everyone’s characters in the upcoming season… I think viewers are going to enjoy the character development. It’s a fun season, and I’m really excited for people to experience it.
The Returning Show Has A Huge Benchmark To Meet
Having amassed 1 billion viewing hours by December 2022, the reception to the streaming release of Wednesday season 1 was highly favorable. It rejuvenated substantial interest in the decades-old Addams Family franchise, marking an undeniable triumph for creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, along with director Tim Burton.
Many viewers are already keen on further exploring Wednesday’s peculiar friendship with Enid rather than delving into another contrived love triangle. Myers’ enthusiasm for the new season should be well-received by fans looking forward to the show’s return.
With the substantial success of season 1 setting a high bar, Wednesday season 2 faces considerable expectations. The new season must navigate the fallout from Percy Hynes White’s controversial exit, and Ortega has indicated that the upcoming season aims to steer clear of the romantic elements present in season 1, opting instead for a stronger focus on horror themes.
