The two revealed Season 2 will have &quot;more Morticia, more Gomez, and more chaos.&quot;</div>Fans of Season 1 wished for more Morticia and Gomez --  and Netflix delivered.“Being more involved this time around was such a gift,” Zeta-Jones said. “The writers gave us beautiful character arcs, keeping the love affair between Gomez and Morticia alive, but also going deeper into who they are as parents and individuals.”The actress added: “This Season 2, my old &#x27;Zorro&#x27; days came back. I did fencing, and it was a joy. And also, it’s not just the sword fights. To work with Jenna Ortega on that sequence was marvelous. It was so much fun.”Guzman chimed in with a laugh: “We’re great campers, great dancers, and this time, I get to hang out with my mother-in-law. It adds a whole new dimension to the Addams chaos.”The addition of Wednesday’s grandmother, Hester Frump (played by Joanna Lumley), brings three generations of Addams women together on screen —bsomething Zeta-Jones says “add a wonderful dynamic we’ve never explored this deeply before.”When asked why the Addams family continues to resonate with audiences across generations, Guzman shared: “It’s generational because it is the Addams Family. From the black-and-white TV version to the movie, a couple of cartoons, right? And then we show up and we just put a whole different spin. It’s not like we had to reinvent it, you know, because the plate was already set. What really helps us and guides us is the writing of Al and Miles, both of the main writers of the show, it’s beautiful what they write for us.”Zeta-Jones added, “It’s a modern family story. It embraces differences instead of hiding them. That’s why people love it.”The Oscar-winning actress also shared a heartfelt thank you to all the fans in the Philippines: “Thank you, everyone in the Philippines, for enjoying the show as much as we enjoy making it for you. We truly appreciate your love. Outcasts, be strong. Outcasts, every day, all day.”With more Morticia, more Gomez, and new mysteries, &quot;Wednesday&quot; Season 2 promises to delight old fans and win new ones when Part 1 drops August 6 and Part 2 follows on September 3, only on Netflix.

With new mysteries at Nevermore Academy, and the introduction of Wednesday Addams’s grandmother, the upcoming season of the Netflix hit dives deeper into family dynamics, embracing the chaos that has made the Addams Family a timeless favorite.
