Joanna Lumley, 78, sends fans wild with jaw-dropping transformation in Wednesday season two trailer as she becomes newest addition to Addams clan

Joanna Lumley has sent fans into a frenzy after unveiling her glamorous transformation in the new trailer for Wednesday’s much-anticipated second series.

The actress, 78, has joined the Addams clan as Grandmama, and in the new clip, she made an eye-catching arrival after emerging from the graveyard.

Offering a gothic take on her iconic Absolutely Fabulous alter-ego, Joanna stunned into a dramatic black gown with a platinum blonde beehive.

The clip sparked a flurry of reaction from fans on social media, with comments quickly branding her appearance ‘perfect’ and ‘fabulous.’

The new trailer for Wednesday’s second season showed Jenna Ortega’s return as the тιтular heroine, and featured the Gen Z scream queen, 22, shocking airport security after setting off the metal detector.

At the beginning of her solo travel mission, she begrudgingly revealed the brᴀss knuckles, a taser, a machete and many more knives and weapons as well as a severed hand.

But what she ended up getting in trouble for was a small tube of sun cream that was secretly packed by Thing, the beloved limb character and Wednesday’s companion played by Victor Dorobantu.

The actress — who is also set to star opposite The Weeknd and alongside Barry Keoghan in the singer’s upcoming thriller movie Hurry Up Tomorrow — as Wednesday then revealed that she knows where the bodies are buried.

The second season of the record-breaking supernatural series, which Netflix teased in first look pH๏τos set in a graveyard and a psychiatric hospital earlier this year, will premiere in two parts.

Wednesday is seen riding back to school with the rest of the Addams family driving with her. 

She is joined by Catherine Zeta-Jones again as her mother Morticia and Luis Guzmán as the Addams family patriarch Gomez and brother Pugsley, played by Isaac Ordonez. 

Back at Nevermore Academy, Wednesday reunites with her bubbly and colorful roommate Enid Sinclair, played by Emma Myers, and sees she is having a fun gathering in their room.

The teaser trailer also shows a sneak peek of a celebration as Wednesday and her loved ones find themselves at a spooky ‘Grim World’ carnival. 

The trailer concludes with a mysterious turn of events, seemingly suggesting that a long-gone Addams family member will wake up from the ᴅᴇᴀᴅ.

A broken tombstone is shown, where only the Addams surname is visible alongside the epitaph: ‘Resting in death’s sweet embrace.’ 

Meanwhile, their former co-star Percy Hynes White, who played Xavier Thorpe, one of Wednesday’s two love interests, will not be returning for the season and his character was erased from the storyline due to controversy. 

Multiple allegations of Sєxual ᴀssault were raised against Hynes White after the first season debuted in 2022, and he has denied all accusations. 

To distract from his absence, however, a slew of fresh faces will be joining the cast. 

The first four episodes will hit the streamer on August 6, 2025, and the second four will be released on September 3, 2025.
