There was The
Addams Family television show back in the
mid-‘60s with John Astin and Carolyn Jones as Gomez and Morticia Addams. It spawned two theatrical hits, one in 1991
simply titled The Addams Family,
with Raul Julia and Angelica Huston taking up the roles of Gomez and Morticia …
everyone came back two years later for Addams
Family Values.
Universal Pictures Home Entertainment will be
teaming up with Metro Goldwyn Mayer on Jan. 21 for the latest rendition of this
seemingly timeless tale of the loveable members of the Addams clan in the
directing team of Greg Tiernan and Conrad Vernon’s CGI presentation of The
Addams Family.
The ARR comes in at 102 days and ticket sales for
this Gomez (voiced by Oscar Isaac — as Poe Dameron in the latest Star Wars trilogy)
and Morticia (voiced by Charlize Theron) family gathering were an impressive
$96.4 million … with those numbers look for a sequel to be in theatres by
2021. Timeless!!
Planned for release to the home entertainment
packaged media marketplace are a stand-alone DVD edition and a Blu-ray/DVD
Combo Pack.
As to bonus nuggets, look for deleted and extended
scenes, a pair of music videos — Christina Aguilera’s “Haunted Heart” and the
ensemble group presentation of “My Family” — plus there will be four featurettes
— “Welcome to the Family,” “Life of a Scene,” “Charades with Thing” and “Addams
Family Throwback.”
