Internet reacts as Lady Gaga reportedly joins Netflix's Wednesday: "Lady Gaga is not an actress"

Lady Gaga is reportedly set to join the cast of Wednesday for its second season on Netflix. Two years after the singer-actress’s song “Bloody Mary” resurged thanks to a TikTok trend connected to the series, Gaga is now expected to appear in the show.

According to a November 13 article from The Hollywood Reporter, Lady Gaga will have a role in Wednesday, which is currently being filmed in Ireland. Details about her role remain a secret. However, as news of her joining the cast spread online, fans expressed excitement over the Oscar and Grammy winner’s involvement, with one fan remarking on Gaga’s “dark era.” 

"Damn she is COMMITTING to this dark era. Love her for that," commented a fan on X.

Other fans shared their anticipation for the “unique” style and presence the Joker 2 star could bring to the series. With her character still under wraps, they eagerly speculated about what role Gaga might portray.

"Lady Gaga joining Wednesday Season 2 is a game-changer! Her unique style will bring a whole new vibe to the show," one X user wrote.

"That's exciting news! Lady Gaga's unique presence will definitely add something special to Wednesday Season 2. Can't wait to see what character she brings to life," another user on X commented.

Fans also took to social media to express their excitement over the prospect of Gaga working with the iconic director Tim Burton on *Wednesday* Season 2, with one fan calling it a “perfect match.”

"Gaga x Tim Burton, we won," an X user posted.

"Actress Gaga, you will always be famous... Gaga and Tim Burton is a perfect match," another added.

"Gaga in horror project directed by Tim Burton is perfect... We will be watching," another fan on X said.

A user said, "Lady Gaga is not an actress.”

“Pray it doesn’t get done like Joker 2,” said another.

A user commented, “She is a great singer and an awful actress. Please don’t do to Wednesday what you did to Joker 2.”

Another said, “Please no song, no musical, no nothing for Gaga. Someone stops her.”

Lady Gaga is reportedly joining Jenna Ortega in the cast for this season. Although her role in Season 2 remains a mystery, Variety noted on November 13 that it may be a cameo. The outlet shared that production initially aimed for a more substantial role for Gaga, but “that ultimately didn’t work out.”
