Wednesday season 3 confirms major location change in first look at Jenna Ortega in new episodes

Wednesday season 3 is headed to the city of love!

While the new instalment of the beloved fantasy series is a way off yet, Netflix has already shared a first-look snap of Jenna Ortega's woeful character in a rather iconic location, with the caption: "From Paris, with dread."

As production heads to the French capital, Ortega can be seen filming with the Eiffel Tower in the background, alongside trusty companion Thing. She's holding a piece of paper in her hand – perhaps a letter from someone summoning her there?

As it stands, fans are in the dark about exactly why Wednesday is heading to Paris in season 3, but some fans have speculated that it may be related to Enid (Emma Myers) potentially fleeing Nevermore after her seemingly-permanent werewolf transformation in season 2.

While plot details are still yet to be confirmed, the cast for season 3 is shaping up to be, well, très bien.

New stars joining the fray include: Eva Green (who's playing Aunt Ophelia), Winona Ryder (Tabitha), Chris Sarandon (Balthazar), Noah Taylor (Cyrus), Oscar Morgan (Atticus), and Kennedy Moyer (Daisy).

Plus, Lena Headey, Andrew McCarthy and James Lance were recently announced in yet to be confirmed roles.

Season 3 began production in February this year in Ireland, with key cast members including Ortega (Wednesday), Myers (Enid), Catherine Zeta-Jones (Morticia), Luis Guzmán (Gomez), Hunter Doohan (Tyler), Fred Armisen (Fester) and more returning.

Co-creator and showrunner Alfred Gough previously told Tudum of season 3: "Our goal for season 3 is the same as it is for every season: to make it the best season of Wednesday we possibly can."

Co-creator and showrunner Miles Millar added: "We want to continue digging deeper into our characters while expanding the world of Nevermore and Wednesday. We will be seeing more Addams family members and learning more family secrets in season 3!"

Meanwhile, the legendary Tim Burton, who works as an executive producer on the show, stated: "I’m so excited to be back for season 3, and it’s great to be reunited with all of the original cast. The addition of some dear friends and past collaborators of mine — Winona, Eva, Chris, Noah … makes this season extra special. I feel very lucky."

We'll be (not so) patiently waiting over here!
