The second season of Wednesday is being elevated with the addition of a global icon. Lady Gaga will provide a new single for the series, “The Dead Dance,” and will also deliver what is being teased as a mysterious and pivotal performance.
The new song is set for a September 3, 2025 release, which Gaga announced will coincide with the premiere of the second part of the new season. The reveal took place at a promotional event in New York, where she was joined by the show’s stars.
Gaga also confirmed her on-screen role, stating she had a “wonderful time” working on the Tim Burton-led production. While details about her character are scarce, a new trailer features her voice delivering a foreboding warning, hinting at a significant and potentially villainous part.
This dual contribution of music and acting from an A-list star is a massive development for the hit series. Lady Gaga’s involvement ensures that the return of Wednesday will be an even bigger cultural phenomenon than its debut.
