Yeah, I wonder. I do imagine we're going to see her working more because, as weird as it is to say, it does feel like people throw themselves into work when they get divorced, and last I heard, she's going through a pretty nasty divorce.

I remember hearing a rumor back when they were talking about remaking the Munsters that Catherine Zeta Jones was supposed to play Lily Munster. Well, I guess now she is going to play her non-union, married to-a-Mexican-guy equivalent.

Any chance she could be playing Aunt Ophelia? There's a character I always wish the franchise had done more with.

Yes!
I freaking love Christina Ricci! Her as Wednesday Addams when I was like 10 is the reason I love goth women.

Hopefully this whole endeavor paves the way for my live action adaptation of Fester's Quest.

I feel like the Addams have gotten an awful lot of adaptations slash reboots over the last few years for no discernable reason, but that cast shot definitely has me intrigued. That and Tim Burton being involved gives me more optimism than I had for the last few animated movies.
Incidentally, I did see the Addams Family musical whenever that was out a few years ago, and it was... okay. I think the Addams Family is a property that is tricky to handle because there's been so many different versions that have been composited into the pop cultural zeitgeist, and it's tough when everybody's got their own favorite takes on the characters. IIRC the musical I think *only* had the rights to base off of the original Addams cartoons themselves, not any of the TV or movie versions, which is why they barely acknowledged the classic theme as the curtain opener (basically the opening hook to the finger snaps and none of the lyrics) and then proceeded to ignore it for the rest of the show, but I digress.

Guzman is a perfect Gomez. The legit closest to the original Charles Addams version that I've seen in live action.

Luis Guzman looks a lot like the animated series and CGI versions, too. Aesthetically it's a really good casting.

Love the casting photos, although that wig on Luis is not doing him any favors. 🤣
I'm a bit iffy on Catherine being able to pull off Morticia though, she's not giving that kind of energy. I'll wait to see her in action before making any final calls on her.

Looks like a fun dark comedy. Ortega seems like she's going to be a really good Wednesday.

This looks like a deranged crossover fanfiction of Wednesday getting accepted to Hogwarts in the best possible way. If the piranhas are any indication, doesn't seem like they're going to tiptoe around the macabre either. The casting does indeed look spot on so far.

Jenny looks great and Catherine isn't selling Morticia to me. Still gonna watch the show though.

I think it's interesting we still haven't gotten a look at who Christina Ricci is playing yet. Makes me wonder if there's some sort of weird time travel stuff that happens and she is like "older" Wednesday. probably a stretch.
