Lady Gaga is writing her next creative chapter, and it’s set in the gothic world of Wednesday. The artist has announced a deep involvement in the show’s second season, which includes a new song, “The Dead Dance,” and a significant acting role.
The song will be released on September 3, 2025, the same day that the second half of the season premieres. Gaga revealed this at a promotional “Graveyard Gala,” where she appeared with the cast to the delight of attendees.
This project marks a significant artistic choice for Gaga, allowing her to explore the dark, theatrical, and camp sensibilities that have defined much of her career. She praised her collaboration with Tim Burton, a director whose work aligns with her own aesthetic.
A new trailer provides the first taste of her performance with a menacing voiceover, suggesting her character will be a complex and formidable figure. This new era for Gaga is set to be one of her most intriguing yet.
