She certainly kept with the dark theme of the Tim Burton-produced series with her gothic-inspired outfit.

Joanna stormed the premiere with leading lady Jenna Ortega, returning cast member Catherine Zeta-Jones and fellow newcomer Billie Piper.

The gothic comedy, which follows the antics of Wednesday Addams (Jenna), debuted on the streaming service in November 2022. It was quickly renewed for a second series in January 2023.

It is one of many adaptations of The Addams Family, the eccentric fictional old-money clan, famously macabre and gothic in manner and look.

It has already been announced that Wednesday will be back for a third series, while a spin-off programme is also under discussion, according to the Hollywood Reporter. 

Fans were delighted to hear the fate of the beloved show has been secured before the second series’ premiere, taking to social media to express their excitement.

Confirming the news, Catherine Zeta-Jones posted on Instagram: ‘When Wednesday comes a better day.

‘Wednesday season three. It’s official… we shall return.’

The first series of Wednesday followed the titular troublemaker after she was expelled and transferred to Nevermore Academy, a school for monstrous outcasts.

Her cool, creepy manner and rebellious streak saw her found in trouble and struggling to fit in.

But upon discovering she is a psychic, like her mother (Catherine), she applies her skills to solving a local murder case and soon finds her stride. 

The first series boasted an impressive regular cast, including Game of Thrones’ Gwendoline Christie, Narcos’ Luis Guzman and Emma Myers.

However, Gwendoline is not expected to be returning for the second run after her character, Principal Larissa Weems, was killed off in the first series. 

The upcoming second series looks to be even more star-studded, with Lady Gaga, Steve Buscemi, and Thandiwe Newton also joining the cast.
