According to the source, the production team initially tried to cast Lady Gaga in a more significant role in “Wednesday Night Live” Season 2, but that plan ultimately fell through. With her upcoming appearance, Gaga will add to her acclaimed music career and increase her credits as an actress. She last appeared on screen in “Joker 2.”

News of this casting broke very early in production, so Gaga's role is on the small side and she may guest star in just a few scenes. Jenna Ortega, who plays Wensday Adams, previously hinted to Variety that “Netflix wants Gaga in it”: “I think Mrs. Thornhill and Wednesday had a weird teacher-pupil relationship, or a relationship where they understood each other in a way, so if Lady Gaga is in it I think it would have to be two monsters who could understand each other.”

Fans have speculated online that Gaga might eventually appear on “Wednesday.” Especially after her song “Bloody Mary” was paired with a dance scene in episode 4 and spread by TikTok users. Given the song's unexpected connection to the show, there is hope that Gaga's appearance on “Wednesday” could be a fun nod to that iconic moment. Whether it be a brief cameo or as herself.

The details and scope of Gaga's role remain a mystery for now, but the Singer actress is currently filming in Ireland. Representatives for both Gaga and Netflix declined to comment when contacted by Variety.

Expectations for season two are high, and the addition of Gaga only adds to that excitement. Currently, there are few solid details about season two of Netflix's hit series, but we do know that it will introduce more horror and ditch the romance.

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair magazine, Ortega teased that season two of the Netflix hit show will have a darker tone: “I think the vibe we're going for is a little more horror-ish. I think the vibe we're going for is a little more horror-esque. We're looking at 5-year-olds, you know? [For example,] the one we're doing now is that Wednesday just shows up. She's kind of jumpy and scary.”

When “Wednesday” was renewed for a second season in January 2023, an announcement video teased that more “torture” awaited viewers. Details are still scarce, but Season 2 promises to delve deeper and more sinister stories while maintaining its broad appeal. With Lady Gaga joining the cast, fans can look forward even more to seeing how the already twisted, dark and humorous tone will be elevated by her addition.

“Wednesday” Season 2 is scheduled for release in 2025. In the meantime, check out the best shows and movies to watch while you wait for “Wednesday” to hit the small screen again.
