Production Details

What we know about the The Addams Family movie production.

Key Facts

• As director Conrad Vernon explained in a statement (6/5/18), “Greg [Tiernan] 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.”
• Based on the characters/cartoons created by Charles Addams which were published in "The New Yorker" between 1938 and 1988.
