Lady Gaga Sets Sept. 3 Release for 'The Dead Dance' With Wednesday Part 2

Trade reports point to a Tim Burton–directed video that has not been formally confirmed.

Overview

  • Lady Gaga revealed the single during Netflix and Spotify’s Wednesday Graveyard Gala in New York City, appearing alongside Jenna Ortega.
  • She said the track supports Wednesday season two and will arrive as Netflix releases Part 2, following Part 1’s Aug. 6 debut.
  • Gaga has not yet appeared in the season, and outlets report she is set to show up when the latter four episodes stream.
  • Details of her character remain disputed, with Netflix’s initial Rosaline Rotwood billing at odds with Ortega’s comment that Gaga is not a Nevermore teacher.
  • Multiple outlets report that Burton worked with Gaga on a music video and that filming took place at Xochimilco’s Island of the Dolls, and attendees at the gala reportedly heard an early preview.
