Netflix releases a trailer for the second half of Wednesday season 2 with a high profile guest star that could broaden the show's appeal.

Lady Gaga Guest Stars in Wednesday Season 2 Part 2 Trailer

Netflix released a new trailer for the second half of Wednesday season 2. The clip confirms a surprising guest appearance by Lady Gaga and shows Principal Weems returning from the grave to guide Wednesday on a new supernatural quest. The trailer hints at danger as Tyler remains at large, and it ends with Gaga's voice saying, Beware. There will be a price to pay. The first four episodes are available now, with the next four arriving on September 3. The trailer also leans into the show's distinctive visuals and stylish costumes that have drawn fans since season 1.

The cameo signals a shift toward bigger star power as streaming series chase fresh attention. It could expand Wednesday’s audience beyond horror fans and TV goths, but it also raises the risk of overshadowing the show’s writing. The reception from critics has been mixed, with some praising the style while others question the depth of the story. The decision to bring Gaga into the fold may keep the series in the conversation, but long term it will test whether the show can stand on its own.
