“Dead Dance” is expected to release next month, alongside Gaga’s guest appearance on the Netflix show.
Lady Gaga‘s involvement in Wednesday season 2 extends beyond acting to a brand-new song, Billboard can confirm.
Gaga is expected to release a new song titled “Dead Dance” next month, timed to her guest role on the new season, Variety was the first to report. The outlet also reported that Andrew Watt and Cirkut — who worked with Gaga on her most recent album Mayhem — are behind the new song.
Billboard has reached out to reps for Lady Gaga and Netflix for more details.
Back in May, Netflix confirmed that Gaga would appear in season 2 of Wednesday, the hit series starring Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, playing “the mysterious and enigmatic Rosaline Rotwood, a legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday.” The streaming service announced the news of Gaga as guest star at its Tudum fan event at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on May 31.
Gaga also took the stage at the event for a Wednesday-themed set that had her emerging from a coffin with a lid that read “HERE LIES THE MONSTER QUEEN.” She performed the on-theme Mayhem tracks “Zombieboy” and “Abracadabra” before returning to her coffin, and the middle of her mini-set included a dance performance to The Cramps’ “Goo Goo Muck,” inspired by the viral dance scene from Wednesday‘s first season.
Back in 2022, fans inspired by the Wednesday scene uploaded videos of themselves performing the dance to TikTok and other platforms, but many Little Monsters swapped out the audio of “Goo Goo Muck” with a sped-up version of Gaga’s “Bloody Mary” — including the pop star herself after she caught onto the trend. Gaga’s association to the show now continues with the season 2 acting role and new song.
According to Variety, a music video will also be released for the song in September as well. Last month, it was reported that Gaga was spotted with Wednesday director Tim Burton on the Island of the Dolls, south of Mexico City, but there’s no word whether that is related to the new song or video.
The first Wednesday season 2 episodes arrive (naturally) on Wednesday to Netflix. A second batch is due Sept. 3, which will seemingly include Gaga’s appearance on the show.
