The biggest question following Lady Gaga’s Wednesday announcement is simple: will she be a hero or a villain? With her role in Season 2 now confirmed, along with a new single “The Dead Dance,” fan speculation is running wild.
The primary clue comes from a new trailer, where a voice that is unmistakably Gaga’s warns Wednesday, “Beware, there will be a price to pay.” This ominous line strongly suggests an antagonistic role, perhaps as a new teacher, rival, or supernatural entity.
Gaga announced her involvement at a promotional event in New York on August 28. While she praised her time on set, she gave no details about her character’s alignment. The single, “The Dead Dance,” is set for a September 3, 2025 release, coinciding with the new episodes.
Whether she’s a friend or foe to Wednesday Addams, Lady Gaga’s presence guarantees a dynamic and theatrical performance. Her character is now the most anticipated new element of the show’s return.
