Ba da da da… snap snap! Netflix has announced that everyone’s favorite murder maven is taking over your TVs! Wednesday, a new live-action coming-of-age-comedy, follows none other than Wednesday Addams, an endearing pop culture icon with a (black) heart of gold.

Wednesday Addams has been portrayed in countless adaptations of television, film, video games, and even musicals. But Wednesday was always just an ensemble role in The Addams Family… until now. Wednesday is here to take center stage in her first young adult television series.

The series is a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy. Wednesday’s attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.

And who better to direct this deliciously dark masterpiece than the king of kooky… Tim Burton! Burton has made an illustrious career out of the macabre with films like Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and Sweeny Todd, and Wednesday will be Burton’s television debut.

Season 1 of Wednesday will contain 8 episodes (the perfect amount for binging). Tim Burton also serves as executive producer on the show along with Andrew Mittman for 1.21 (The Addams Family, Alphas), Kevin Miserocchi (Tee and Charles Addams Foundation), Kayla Alpert (Code Black, Up All Night), Jonathan Glickman for Glickmania (RESPECT, Addams Family 2), and Gail Berman (The Addams Family, Alphas). Al Gough and Miles Millar (Smallville, Into the Badlands) will serve as the show’s showrunners for MGM and UA Television.

No cast list or premiere date has been announced yet.
