It’s been nearly a year since we wrote about MGM’s animated take on The Addams Family and that was pretty much just an announcement and cast reveal. Not that we’re complaining, mind you. Any chance to hang out with the kookiest family around is a welcome one! But no news in the world of Hollywood doesn’t always mean good news. That being said, today ensures that the project is alive and well as an official poster has been released and touts a release window of this Halloween! Additionally, a trailer is expected to drop within the next couple of weeks, so we’ll be eagerly awaiting that.
The poster takes the image that was released last year and gives it a background and a tagline. Furthermore, we see the logo/font for the title of the film, which features a cute ‘A’ that has the Addams’ house in the middle. You can see it for yourself below.
The Addams Family will feature the voices of Oscar Isaac, Charlize Theron, Chloë Grace Moretz, Finn Wolfhard, Nick Kroll, Bette Midler and Allison Janney. Greg Tiernan and Conrad Vernon will co-direct based on a script by Matt Lieberman.
Vernon explains, “Greg and I have always been a fan of the Addams Family in past versions, so when we set out to make this movie, we were excited to do something new. With that in mind, I drew from the brilliantly original Charles Addams New Yorker cartoons for the look of the film and decided to tell the story of how Gomez and Morticia meet, find their house and start their family. This unique approach is what drew me in to direct the film. The reimagining also extends to the stellar cast we’ve put together who will each bring their own spin to our film that will appeal to longtime fans of the Addams and introduce them to a new generation.”
