Steve Buscemi is going to be in ‘Wednesday’ season two

Steve Buscemi has joined the cast of the forthcoming second season of Wednesday. 

While exact details of his character are being kept under wraps, Variety reports that according to its sources, Buscemi will play the new principal of Nevermore Academy. Reps for Netflix and Buscemi declined to comment.

Buscemi has previously appeared in the likes of Reservoir Dogs, Fargo, Boardwalk Empire and The Death Of Stalin. He has also starred in shows like Miracle Workers, Season 5 of The Sopranos and made notable guest appearances on 30 Rock and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

Production on season 2 is expected to begin in Ireland later this April.

In January, Jenna Ortega revealed that she has received some scripts for season two of Netflix hit, Wednesday, and that there are some exciting things for fans to look forward to.

She shared on the next instalment: “We’re definitely leaning into a little bit more horror. It’s really, really exciting because, all throughout the show, while Wednesday does need a little bit of an arc, she never really changes and that’s the wonderful thing about her.”

“There’s really, really good one-liners and I think everything’s bigger,” continued Ortega. “It’s a lot more action-packed. Each episode will probably feel a little bit more like a movie, which is nice.”

Ortega also shared details on the second season with Variety last year. She shared, “We’re ditching any romantic love interest for Wednesday, which is really great.”

She also expanded on the horror themes expected in season two saying, “Because it is so lighthearted, and a show like this with vampires and werewolves and superpowers, you don’t want to take yourself too seriously.”
