Wednesday on Netflix Jenna Ortega and Tim Burton descend on Sydney – As Wednesday rejoins the outcasts for a second, spine-chilling season, she’s dragging her peculiar entourage to Australia. Jenna Ortega (the ever-morose Wednesday Addams), Emma Myers (the terminally cheerful Enid Sinclair), the master of macabre Tim Burton, and the show’s overseers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar are descending down under as their final stop on the global Doom Tour. And this Sydney jaunt promises an intoxicating dose of doom, gloom, and satisfyingly dreadful surprises.
Taking centre stage is Wednesday Island, a shadowy Nevermore playground rising from Sydney’s haunted harbour. Expect gothic wit, twisted mysteries, and deadpan mischief as Cockatoo Island / Wareamah is reborn in the image of the most deliciously dark series. A festival to die for.
🕷️ Here’s a glimpse of the ghoulish delights awaiting you on Wednesday Island:
Nevermore Academy: where we embrace every Outcast:
Werewolves, Vampires, Sirens, Gorgons, DaVincis and more.
The Doll House: Enter if you dare. Exit if you can..
The Dead Lounge: For souls who prefer their cocktails cold…
and their company colder.
Decay Cabaret: Where the living perform, and the dead applaud.
Plus more prodigious performances from Peach PRC and ŪLA, haunting melodies, and unsettling delights…🪦 And, of course, a most grave surprise will be revealed…
