Netflix is always looking for new ways to profit from the success of their most popular shows, and spin-offs seem to be their favorite strategy. The streamer is currently developing Wednesday and Peaky Blinders spin-offs, according to Bloomberg’s recent report.

Developing another series in The Addams Family universe is a no-brainer for Netflix since Wednesday became their most popular English-language show ever following its premiere. The new spin-off would center on Uncle Fester, played by Fred Armisen in the original series.

According to Bloomberg, there’s no guarantee this project would actually come to life. Nothing will be official until Netflix bosses negotiate contracts with talent, figure out the scheduling, and hire writers to come up with a good story.

As for Peaky Blinders, the BBC crime drama found a new audience after premiering on Netflix. There have been a lot of speculations about its future after the show ended last year, and Bloomberg now claims there are not one, but two spin-offs in development!

The first one would shift the setting from post-World War I Birmingham to the 20th century Boston. The second would focus on the Shelby family matriarch Polly Gray, who became a fan-favorite character thanks to the brilliant portrayal of the late Helen McCrory in the original series.

Spooky season is upon us and Netflix is celebrating in the best way possible! The streaming giant dropped an official trailer for their highly-anticipated show Wednesday, the story of teenage Wednesday Addams attending the mysterious Nevermore Academy.

The new trailer for Wednesday shows the titular heroine beginning her education at Nevermore, but it’s not your classic high school experience. The list of problems she has to deal with includes her emerging psychic ability, a monstrous killing spree, and the murder mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago.

Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán also appear in the trailer as Morticia and Gomez Addams, while the rest of the trailer features a couple of new faces. Fred Armisen appears as Uncle Fester, while Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday Adams back in the ’90s, portrays the original character named Marylin Thornhill. Gwendoline Christie also makes an appearance as the principal Larissa Weems.

Alfred Gough and Miles Millar serve as showrunners of Wednesday after co-creating the show alongside Tim Burton, who also serves as one of the executive producers. The series was filmed in Bucharest, Romania, and it will consist of a total of eight episodes, set to premiere on Netflix on November 23.

Fans of the Addams Family are patiently awaiting Netflix’s series Wednesday and the streaming giant just gave us a taste of things to come. Shortly after sharing the first look at Jenna Ortega as a titular character, Netflix dropped the first photo of the main cast.

Ortega is joined by Catherine Zeta-Jones as the Addams Family matriarch Morticia, Luis Guzmán as her husband Gomez, and Isaac Ordonez as Wednesday’s brother Pugsley. The new look of the characters draws inspiration from Charles Addams’ original cartoons that the series is based on.

The first look photos were exclusively released by Vanity Fair and co-creators Miles Millar and Alfred Gough revealed what we can expect from the Addams Family in this new series.

“Every family is weird, and this one happens to be extremely weird, but they love each other. And that’s ultimately what it’s about: They always have each other’s backs, and it’s unconditional love,” said Millar.

Wednesday will be directed and executive produced by Tim Burton, and it’s set to premiere on Netflix later this year. It will show Wednesday Addams navigating her teenage years at Nevermore Academy, as she tries to master her emerging psychic ability, put an end to a killing spree in a local down, and crack a 25-year-old supernatural mystery involving her parents.
