An anonymous and unofficial Netflix employee source claims that Wednesday Season 2 will not appear until 2026, citing a combination of factors, including production difficulties tied to the 2023 Hollywood strikes, scheduling conflicts with the lead actress Jenna Ortega, and extensive post-production involving complex visual effects. While these seem plausible, the claim remains unverified by Netflix, and fans should take the information with a grain of salt until it is officially confirmed. The delay reflects more general challenges in the entertainment industry for large-scale productions.
