The singer and actress will appear in the second half of the season as Rosaline Rotwood, a teacher joining the Nevermore Academy.

Ever since the second season of Netflix's modern gothic series Wednesday was announced, speculations were rife that Lady Gaga would be joining the show. Back in June, the streaming giant put all the rumours to rest once and for all, confirming the pop star's role during its Tudum fan event in LA. But they did not share many details about her character to keep some secrecy.

Now, with the second part of Wednesday season 2 releasing on September 3, Netflix unveiled the first look at Lady Gaga's character in the show. The singer and actress will appear in the second half of the season as Rosaline Rotwood, a teacher joining the Nevermore Academy. On Monday, September 1, the streaming giant shared the first picture of the pop star as Rosaline Rotwood on their social media accounts.

First Look At Lady Gaga's Character In Wednesday Season 2

The photo showed the 39-year-old singer and actress dressed in an ethereal white gown with long blonde hair and eyebrows with Thing, a disembodied hand and a relative of Wednesday, resting over her shoulder. The post was captioned: "A vision in venom. Here's your first look at Lady Gaga as Rosaline Rotwood."

Netflix previously described "mysterious and enigmatic" Rosaline as "a legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday." Now, only the second part of the show will reveal whether Lady Gaga's character is a quiet new figure or someone from the school's past.

Previously, the pop star revealed that her eagerly awaited new single, The Dead Dance, will be released on September 3, the same day Part 2 of Netflix's Wednesday Season 2 will premiere. The announcement was made on August 28 at Guastavino's in New York City during the Graveyard Gala event, sponsored by Netflix and Spotify. The streaming giant shared the exciting news through social media, writing: "You heard it from Mother Monster. Lady Gaga's new song The Dead Dance will be out on September 3 and in Wednesday Part II."
