What to know
What the title studio says
Filmograph lists Wednesday as a main title project for MGM Television and Netflix, with Tim Burton as director. Its credits name Aaron Becker as creative director and Joseph Ahn for design. So we know who worked on the sequence, and the studio does not say which font spells the title. A download page that calls a font “Wednesday” is only a lead to follow up.
Building your own gothic title
For an unsettling title of your own, start on a plain background and add imagery or motion afterwards. An ornate font gets harder to read when every letter also carries a texture or shadow. Put a quieter font under the heading so the display letters have room to set the mood.
Fonts to compare

Getting the font
Filmograph’s project notes do not name a font you can buy. ITC Bookman is a paid serif from ITC, listed on MyFonts, and we don’t host paid font files.
Questions
What font is the Wednesday title?
It is unknown. The studio’s page gives production credits and no font name.
