    Lady Gaga was not present in Part 1 of the second season, which saw four episodes, but her appearance is set to be seen in Part 2 of the second season. One can witness her cameo role in Wednesday in its second part, which will release its four episodes on September 3, 2025.

    No doubt, Rosaline Rootwood (Lady Gaga) will surely elevate the show’s appeal further with her charm as a guest star.

    Netflix confirms Rosaline Rotwood’s character in Wednesday season 2

    During Lady Gaga’s performance at the Netflix Tudum 2025: The Live Event, her role as a guest star on the show was confirmed. Here’s what they revealed a bit about her character: ‘’Mysterious and enigmatic, Rosaline Rootwood is a legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday.’’

    At the live event, the Grammy Award winner performed Here Lies the Monster Queen, Zombieboy, Bloody Mary, and Abracadabra, throwing hints towards the audience as all the songs aligned with Wednesday’s theme and plot. On the very same day, Netflix posted on X, where the caption was, “Welcome to Nevermore, Mother Monster. Lady Gaga will guest star in Wednesday Season 2 Part 2 as Rosaline Rotwood - a legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday.”

    As the cast gathered in London in July for the show’s premiere, what was missing was the presence of Lady Gaga on the stage. Her absence from the press interactions created an unsettling layer and even heightened the mystery of her on-screen role on the show.

    In Season 1, we saw Jenna Ortega’s stunning yet memorable final dance performance to the song ‘Bloody Mary,’ a Grammy-winning track by Lady Gaga. Now, fans will not only witness her singing but also see her act as a teacher at the Nevermore Academy. Lady Gaga even posted on X after witnessing Jenna's exceptional performance on her song.

    “She’s such an artist and so for me, working with an artist is inspirational. But I felt that way about Joanna and Steve, who I’ve worked with before. These people come on this set, you see the whole crew kind of light up. It’s a beautiful thing to witness.”
