Reports have surfaced that MGM are in the process of developing an animated ADDAMS FAMILY adventure film.
Everyone remembers the TV series and films – THE ADDAMS FAMILY and THE ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES – which were based on the Charles Addams New Yorker cartoon strips. However, many have complained that the adaptations didn’t completely embody Charles’ unique illustrations. MGM’s new project may change that, as they’re apparently working with Gail Berman, Lloyd Braun and CORPSE BRIDE/MONSTER HOUSE screenwriter Pamela Pettler to create their own animated version of Addams’ original work.
The news may come as a surprise for some as it seems that the King Of Gothic Tim Burton isn’t involved. Burton was in talks with Illumination Entertainment to create his own version of the quirky family, but it seems it’s dead in the water.
Are you an ADDAMS FAMILY fan? Excited by the news?

Considering Jazmine grew up watching CARRY ON SCREAMING, THE LION KING and JURASSIC PARK on repeat for weeks on end, it made sense for her to study film at London South Bank University. It’s also a good thing that her course requires a lot of sitting down because she’s very accident-prone. When she’s not examining her bruises, she likes pretending that she doesn’t live in Southend-On-Sea and spends hours mindlessly blogging. Favourite films include BLUE VALENTINE, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and TOY STORY 2.
