Later this year we will be hit with the animated ADDAMS FAMILY movie featuring the voice work of Oscar Isaac as Gomez, Charlize Theron as Morticia, Chloë Grace Moretz as Wednesday, Finn Wolfhard as Pugsley, Nick Kroll as Uncle Fester, and Bette Midler as Grandmama.
And to celebrate the upcoming reboot's release, we have word that Paramount will be unleashing ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES onto Blu-ray for the first time ever this October. But that's not all, the classic sequel will be released on DVD and Blu-ray along with the original THE ADDAMS FAMILY flick packaged individually and as 2-Movie DVD/Blu-ray Collections.
THE ADDAMS FAMILY begins
When a man (Christopher Lloyd) claiming to be Fester, the missing brother of Gomez Addams (Raul Julia), arrives at the Addams' home, the family is thrilled. However, Morticia (Anjelica Huston) begins to suspect the man is a fraud, since he cannot recall details of Fester's life. With the help of lawyer Tully Alford (Dan Hedaya), Fester manages to get the Addams clan evicted from their home. Gomez realizes the two men are conspiring to swindle the Addams fortune and that he must challenge Fester.
The members of the odd Addams Family are up to more macabre antics in the sequel, ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES. This time around:
Gomez Addams (Raul Julia) and his wife, Morticia (Anjelica Huston), are celebrating the arrival of a baby boy. But siblings Wednesday (Christina Ricci) and Pugsley (Jimmy Workman) are none too happy about the new addition, and try their best to eliminate the infant. When nanny Debbie Jelinsky (Joan Cusack) appears to keep the kids in line, her presence leads to an unexpected treacherous twist.
THE ADDAMS FAMILY and ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES hit Blu-ray on October 1, 2019. Meanwhile, this new animated version is directed by Conrad Vernon & Greg Tiernan from a script by Matt Lieberman, Jodi Picoult, and Sue Costello based on The Addams Family by Charles Addams. Vernon, Gail Berman, and Alex Schwartz produced. It's executive produced by Andrew Mittman, Kevin Miserocchi, and Joe Earley. Tabitha Shick is overseeing the project on behalf of the studio. The film will be distributed theatrically by MGM on October 11, 2019.
