Oscar Isaac in Talks to Voice Gomez in Upcoming ‘Addams Family’ Animated Movie!
Many people in recent years have fan cast Oscar Isaac for the role of Gomez Addams in a fantasy Addams Family film, and wouldn’t ya know it, it seems MGM has been listening. As we recently told you, Sausage Party director Conrad Vernon is directing an animated Addams Family film for MGM, and Isaac is in talks to star!
Isaac is currently in negotiations to voice Gomez, Tracking Board reports.
Production is underway in Vancouver, with the other roles not yet cast, although it’s been dated for release on October 11, 2019.
Pamela Pettler (Corpse Bride) wrote the script, with revisions by Matt Lieberman.
Vernon will produce with Gail Berman and Alex Schwartz, principals of production house the Jackal Group. Andrew Mittman and Kevin Miserocchi will exec produce.
Jennifer Holland (“Peacemaker”) and Dave Annable (“Lioness”) will lead the cast of upcoming supernatural Civil War thriller Brine, Deadline reports this afternoon.
B.J. Golnick (“Hunting Hitler”) will be directing Brine.
Brine follows a family of Confederate deserters who escape the Union bombardment of Fort Pulaski with a cache of stolen gold and disappear into the Georgia marshlands.
When they take refuge in a remote plantation house, what first appears to be salvation slowly reveals itself as part of something ancient, predatory and impossible to escape.
Jonah Wharton (Lioness), Sissy Sheridan (Chicken Girls), and Grayson Lay (Outer Banks) also star. The screenplay was written by B.J. Golnick and Jeremy Miller.
“Brine is a story about survival, but it is also a story about inheritance…The violence we pass down, the myths we create to justify it, and the cost of trying to break free,” Golnick previews.
“We intend for the film to feel intimate, historically grounded and deeply unnerving, as if the supernatural elements weren’t invented, but unearthed from the marsh itself.”
