INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Netflix showcased its Hollywood influence at a live event where it revealed exciting details about its upcoming streaming lineup. The announcements included Lady Gaga joining the cast of “Wednesday” as a teacher, alongside premiere dates for the concluding installments of popular series “Squid Game” and “Stranger Things.”

The streaming service gathered a star-studded lineup with the presence of actors such as Jenna Ortega, Oscar Isaac, Lee Jung-jae, Drew Starkey, Sofia Carson, Kerry Washington, Steven Yeun, Matt Damon, and Ben Affleck for its annual Tudum event on Saturday in Inglewood, Calif. The event featured musical acts, opening with Hanumankind performing “Run It Up” and closing with Lady Gaga delivering a medley and revealing her new acting role.
