Addams Family

Product Information

I absolutely love his illustrations of the family and would love to get my hands on an original one day! While it discusses some changes to the characters that result from the TV show and later movies, it doesn't really explore the whole "evilution", so don't expect that.

Il suo appartamento era infatti caratterizzato da pezzi da collezione insoliti come armature, archi e molti altri oggetti peculiari, per cui l’illustratore aveva una grande passione. Il disegnatore amava ritrarre la famiglia impegnata in normali faccende quotidiane, ma sempre alle prese con risvolti bizzarri che li hanno contraddistinti. Several video games based on the film were released for various console, handheld, and home computer platforms. A staple in pop culture for eight decades, The Addams Family has influenced American comics, cinema and television. The film featured a new cast, a necessity given that a number of the classic cast members had passed away by the early 1990s.The cast includes Lane as Gomez, Neuwirth as Morticia, Terrence Mann as Mal Beineke, Carolee Carmello as Alice Beineke, Chamberlin as Uncle Fester, Jackie Hoffman as Grandma, Zachary James as Lurch, Krysta Rodriguez as Wednesday, and Wesley Taylor as Wednesday's love interest, Lucas Beineke.

In the 1964 television series, however, he is portrayed as Morticia's maternal uncle (via her mother, Hester Frump). The head of production at 20th Century Fox, Scott Rudin, pitched an Addams Family film but Fox did not have the rights to the franchise. In March 2022, Christina Ricci, who portrayed Wednesday in The Addams Family (1991) and Addams Family Values (1993), joined the cast as a series regular. These are some of the modern conveniences in the Addams' home, where every evening the family sits down to a delicious dinner. Yes, the Addams Family may have a monstrous manservant and a severed hand for a pet and a high-pitched mop of a cousin, but today I’d like to turn your attention to the fact that they’re also a bunch of book lovers—just like you and me.Gordon, under the guise of Fester, grows closer to the Addams family, particularly the children Wednesday and Pugsley, whom he helps to prepare a swordplay sequence for a school play. The television series was often re-run through television syndication for years afterward, particularly in Australia.

Another obstacle in releasing the film occurred when, as the studios prepared the film for release, David Levy, a producer of the original 1960s TV series, filed a lawsuit against Paramount Pictures, claiming that the film infringed on his property rights.Following the wave of interest in the franchise, a 1992 animated television series notably saw John Astin reprise his role as Gomez, almost thirty years after his first appearance in the role in 1964.
