Wednesday Season 3 confirmed: Netflix announces shocking cast shakeup and new name for Jenna Ortega’s character.
A viral rumor sweeping social media claims that Netflix has officially greenlit Wednesday season 3 with a surprising twist—Jenna Ortega’s famously deadpan character will now be renamed to “Thursday Addams” to reflect a darker timeline shift in the show. The rumor, based on a fake screenshot of a Netflix press release that has been circulating on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), has been debunked by fact-checkers. No official announcement for Wednesday season 3 exists beyond Netflix’s previously confirmed renewal; the show remains in production with its original title and cast, including Ortega as Wednesday.
