Lady Gaga is confirmed to release a new track titled Dead Dance for the second season of the Tim Burton-directed Netflix series Wednesday.
Two sources close to the production revealed the news to Variety, confirming fan theories that had circulated in recent months.
The song and its accompanying video are scheduled for release next month, timed with Gaga’s on-screen appearance as Rosaline Rotwood who is described as a “legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday.”
Reps for the singer declined to comment, but industry insiders have linked the song’s production to Andrew Watt and Cirkut, who also worked on Gaga’s Mayhem album.
Although she was absent from the recent Wednesday Season 2 premiere in London due to her ongoing Mayhem Ball tour, Burton praised her creative energy. “She’s such an artist and so for me, working with an artist is inspirational,” he told Variety.
The new season also includes Jenna Ortega, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Steve Buscemi, and Joanna Lumley.
The first four episodes of Wednesday Season 2 will be released on Netflix on August 6, 2025, at 3 am ET / 12 am PT. The final four episodes will follow on September 3, 2025.
