Lady Gaga is set to drop a new song for season 2 of Netflix‘s Wednesday, and it will come with a Tim Burton-directed music video, a source familiar with the matter confirms to The Hollywood Reporter.
The insider reveals that the video was shot in Mexico, though it’s not immediately clear when that happened. Gaga was in Mexico back in April for a pair of Mexico City concerts at the Estadio GNP Seguros.
Variety first reported the news of the Gaga Wednesday track, which is titled “Death Dance.” Per Variety, the song will release next month.
THR had reported Gaga’s casting in Wednesday for a guest role late last year, with Netflix officially confirming her involvement at a Tudum fan event at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles in May. Part one of Wednesday Season 2 was released Aug. 6, and Part 2, featuring Gaga’s appearance, will be released on Sept. 3.
“I’ve never done television, so it was the idea of exploring something on a longer time frame, and she’s an interesting character,” Burton told THR in July of his interest in creating Wednesday. He directed four episodes of season one and four from this season. “As much as a middle-aged man could feel like a teenage Wednesday Addams, I feel those things. And she’s a character that’s all about being subtle because she doesn’t really have a huge range of emotions.”
Aside from her Wednesday work, Lady Gaga’s busy with her Mayhem Ball arena tour, which officially started in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena on July 16. She headlined Coachella back in April with a set that instantly became considered one of the greatest headlining sets in the festival’s history.
