'Wednesday' director Tim Burton comments "working with an artist is inspirational" while speaking about Lady Gaga's season 2 role

Wednesday director and executive producer Tim Burton is opening up about his experience working with Lady Gaga, who will guest star as Rosaline Rotwood, described as "a legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday."

Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. This season, Wednesday must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery. 

"She's such an artist and so for me, working with an artist is inspirational," he told Variety. "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."

The season 2 cast includes Jenna Ortega, Emma Myers, Steve Buscemi, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzman, Isaac Ordonez, Joy Sunday, Billie Piper, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Moosa Mostafa, Georgie Farmer, Victor Dorobantu, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter, Noah B. Taylor, and Hunter Doohan.
