Charlize Theron and Oscar Isaac get kooky and ooky in first teaser for ‘The Addams Family’
A new animated vision of the classic TV series The Addams Family starring Academy Award winner Charlize Theron and Oscar Isaac as the duo of Morticia and Gomez Addams is coming your way and the first teaser is here.
The film has big shoes to fill, not only of the tv show but of Barry Levinson’s iconic feature film versions, 1991’s The Addams Family and 1993’s Addams Family Values which starred Anjelica Huston and Raul Julia.
The Addams Family is directed by Conrad Vernon and Greg Tiernan, produced by Kevin Miserocchi, Andrew Mittman and Joe Earley and also stars Chloë Grace Moretz (Suspiria, Greta), Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things), Nick Kroll (Big Mouth) with Academy Award nominee Bette Midler (The Rose, For the Boys) and Academy Award winner Allison Janney (I, Tonya).
They’re creepy and they’re kooky and headed to theaters this Halloween. MGM will release the film on October 11th.
