Netflix subscribers have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the beloved Addams Family content on the streaming platform, and there’s finally some clarity about what’s coming and when.
Wednesday vs The Classic Addams Family
While the original Addams Family movies aren’t currently slated for Netflix, the platform has doubled down on the franchise with its mega-hit series “Wednesday.” The show, which premiered in November 2022, broke streaming records and has already been renewed for a second season.
What Addams Content Can You Watch Now?
Currently, Netflix offers:
– Wednesday Season 1 (All episodes)
– Behind-the-scenes content from Wednesday
– Various Addams Family documentaries and special features
Alternative Streaming Options
If you’re looking to watch the classic Addams Family content, you’ll need to check other streaming services. The 1991 movie “The Addams Family” and its 1993 sequel “Addams Family Values” regularly rotate between different streaming platforms like Amazon Prime and Paramount+.
Looking Ahead: Season 2 of Wednesday
While we’re still waiting for an official release date, Wednesday Season 2 is expected to hit Netflix in late 2024. The production team has confirmed they’re working on making the second season even more spectacular than the first, with Jenna Ortega returning as Wednesday Addams.
What to Watch While You Wait
If you’re craving that gothic family charm, Netflix offers several shows with similar vibes:
– The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
– A Series of Unfortunate Events
– The Umbrella Academy
Will The Original Movies Ever Come to Netflix?
Here’s the thing – streaming rights are complicated. While Netflix might acquire the rights to stream the original Addams Family movies in the future, there are currently no announced plans. The success of Wednesday has certainly increased interest in the franchise, so there’s always a possibility we’ll see more Addams content added to Netflix’s library.
Remember, streaming availability can change monthly, so it’s worth checking Netflix’s “Coming Soon” section regularly or setting up notifications for when new Addams Family content becomes available. In the meantime, you can enjoy Wednesday and look forward to the next chapter in this iconic family’s story through Netflix’s fresh take on the franchise.
