Snap, snap! Netflix recently took to Twitter to reveal the official release date for the upcoming Addams Family spinoff series Wednesday, and it’s coming… a little later than we hoped. Being a franchise with quintessentially Halloween-themed vibes, many believed the Wednesday Addams-centric series would premiere sometime in October; however, we now know the series will debut late November. Although, fittingly, the series does drop on a Wednesday. Nice touch.
Catch Wednesday November 23, 2022 on Netflix.
