Wednesday fans are ready for the second season to arrive on Netflix, and a new featurette is revealing that certain members of the Addams Family are getting a more prominent role.

Executive producer and director Tim Burton shared in the clip that they are bringing the family to Nevermore, so that move gave writers the opportunity to explore "Addams Family lore."Creator and showrunner Miles Millar explained that "the scope is expanded, in terms of the character arcs, and it's really fun to see them explore a lot more of Nevermore."

The "mother-daughter dynamic between Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) and Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) will be featured, along with Gomez (Luis Guzmán) and Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez).

"Luis as Gomez Addams is such a great, warm character," noted Millar.

"And we see the father-song story evolve over the season," added creator and showrunner Alfred Gough.

Burton promised that Ordonez really delivered as Pugsley in Season 2, whom he described as "an outcast among outcasts" this year. He had high praise for the 16-year-old actor, adding, "Isaac did a really beautiful job of capturing the pathos of Pugsley."

Ordonez warned, "[Pugsley] wants to fit in, and he really wants a friend. It's not looking very good."

Netflix is delivering the show in two parts with Part I dropping Aug. 6 and Part II coming Sept. 3. It's a marketing strategy that has worked well for the streamer when it comes to their bigger hits, including Outer Banks, Bridgerton, Cobra Kai, and Emily in Paris.
