Cameras are set to roll on the highly anticipated third season of Netflix’s series, Wednesday. Recent updates unveil key details about the production schedule, including shooting dates and a new codename that connects to the series’ roots.
New Filming Updates for ‘Wednesday’ Season 3
Following the dramatic conclusion of Season 2, Wednesday fans have eagerly awaited news. Netflix has kept details under wraps, but a new production listing has shed light on the upcoming schedule for Season 3.
Production Schedule and Details
- Prep Date: July 28, 2025
- Filming Start Date: February 16, 2026
- Filming End Date: May 22, 2026 (tentative)
Despite previous reports suggesting a late 2025 start, it appears the production will officially kick off in early 2026. Luiz Guzman confirmed on social media the February filming start, building excitement for the return of Nevermore Academy’s students.
New Codename: ‘Briarcliff’
For Season 3, the production is operating under the working title “Briarcliff.” This name is a nod to the Tee & Charles Addams Foundation, honoring Charles Addams, the creator of The Addams Family. This choice reflects the showrunners’ commitment to maintaining a connection with the source material.
Prior to this announcement, the production was listed under different titles, indicating ongoing adjustments. The change to “Briarcliff” indicates a creative direction that continues to celebrate the show’s heritage.
Filming Locations
Once again, filming will take place in Dublin and Wicklow, Ireland. The series previously moved its production from Romania for Season 2, utilizing sites like the historic Powerscourt Estate.
Estimated Release Date
While fans are keenly awaiting the new season, it is anticipated that Wednesday Season 3 will not debut until Summer 2027. This long wait has sparked concerns among viewers, especially since the series will not be featured in Netflix’s 2026 content slate.
As production edges closer, excitement continues to build for Wednesday’s next chapter. Fans are encouraged to share their thoughts and anticipation in the comments.
