Netflix fans go wild over ‘perfect’ casting of major A-list star in hit show: ‘Wow that was not expected’

Lady Gaga has been added to the season two cast of the hit Netflix series Wednesday, which stars Jenna Ortega as the тιтular character.

The 38-year-old singer is currently working on the upcoming installment in Ireland, according to Variety.

The capacity of Gaga’s role is unknown, but fans have already taken to social media to express excitement.

One person wrote on X, ‘Wow, this is very unexpected but I like it a lot,’ while another agreed, ‘Ok, this actually makes sense for her.’

Another predicted, ‘Mother is about to devour,’ referencing the pop star’s nickname Mother Monster.

‘Can’t wait to see,’ someone else shared on the site and another called Gaga’s casting ‘perfect.’

Sources told Variety that Gaga’s role will be a cameo, despite the production team’s efforts to give the native New Yorker a more significant role.

Wednesday premiered on the streamer in late 2022, with it quickly becoming a fan favorite.

Lady Gaga, born Stefani Germanotta, even participated in the show’s viral TikTok dance, which revived the music artist’s 2011 song Bloody Mary.

Then, at the 2023 Golden Globes, Ortega dished to Variety that she hoped Gaga would join the show’s second season.

‘I’m sure Netflix would love that,’ the You star shared. 

She even thought up a narrative, adding, ‘I think Mrs. Thornhill and Wednesday had this weird mentor relationship or kind of understood each other in a certain way, so, if Lady Gaga were to be a part, I think it would have to be two monsters that understand each other.’

Gaga most recently displayed her acting chops as she starred in Joker: Folie à Deux alongside Joaquin Phoenix, which failed to impress audiences. 

Wednesday stars Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Adams, Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, Luis Guzman as Gomez Addams and Issac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams

The singer-songwriter earned an Academy Award Best Actress nomination for her part in 2018’s A Star Is Born.

She also starred in House of Gucci with Adam Driver, and appeared in multiple seasons of American Horror Story.

The multihyphenate was just nominated for two 2025 Grammys for her Bruno Mars collaboration Die With A Smile.

Days ago she wrote to her Instagram followers, ‘I’m so grateful for these 2 GRAMMY NOMINATIONS! 

‘Because of our amazing fans we are so blessed to be nominated for Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo recording for Die With A Smile!! We love y’all! Monsters and Hooligans did that!’
