According to a story, Netflix may need to work out an agreement with Amazon in order to broadcast season two. The series’ departure from Netflix has not yet been confirmed, though. A trade publication had previously stated that Amazon did not intend to make all MGM content exclusively available through Prime Video.

The series’ creators have reportedly already started looking at potential filming locations and developing scenarios for the upcoming season. Jenna, the lead, already expressed her hopes for Wednesday and the upcoming season.

She told in an interview, “I kind of want her to be darker. I want her to get more in the nitty-gritty of things and not play things so safe. Because there are a lot of lines about her saving the school and doing whatever, but for me, her main drive with the monster is of a competitiveness. Kind of, ‘Man, how’s this guy doing this?’”
