This Halloween season will be creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky when MGM visits the door of The Addams Family. The Conrad Vernon and Greg Tiernan-directed animated film will deliver tricks and treats on October 11th, and today we get the first trailer.
The new incarnation introduces Charlize Theron as the voice of Morticia Addams, with Oscar Isaac voicing Gomez Addams, and Chloe Grace Moretz as Wednesday Addams. The cast also includes Finn Wolfhard as Pugsley Addams, Nick Kroll as Uncle Fester, Bette Midler as Grandma, Allison Janney as Margaux Needler, and Elsie Fisher as Parker Needler, the daughter of Margaux.
The Addams Family is your average American family…only different. The first teaser trailer doesn’t offer any of the film’s actual plot (it follows the family as they face off against a crafty reality TV host), but it does a great job of introducing us to the iconic characters. The tone is right in line with the previous art, show, and films, and even delivers a handful of quality jokes, like a great homage to Pennywise and his infamous red balloon. What do you think?
