Morticia Addams may have been a chilly character for Anjelica Huston to play, but she used her famous model friend Jerry Hall as a muse to bring a gentle and warm disposition to the character. Ever since the blockbuster hit and its sequel, Huston has been featured in films like Ever After (1998), Daddy Day Care (2003) and a string of Wes Anderson f...
Bringing a passion and charismatic swagger to Gomez Addams, Puerto Rican actor Raúl Juliá added his own personal touch to the patriarch of darkness. By the time he filmed the two Addams Family films, Juliá had already gained international fame for his acting, receiving Tony nominations for musicals like Two Gentlemen of Verona and Golden Globe nomi...
Christopher Lloyd may have been much taller and thinner than the original Uncle Fester but that didn't stop him from playing the portly, dark-eyed character who was a brother to Gomez Addams. Donning a fat suit borrowed from the set of The Godfather Part II, Lloyd looked as if he had packed on the pounds for his distinguished role — a far cry from ...
The original Wednesday Addams was a mix of sweet and eccentric, but Christina Ricci made her version dark, dry, precocious and psychopathic. Barely 10 years old when she played the spooky daughter of Morticia and Gomez Addams, Ricci impressed critics and audiences alike. No big surprise that post-Addams Family, Ricci appeared in the ghoulish flicks...
As the son of Morticia and Gomez Addams, Pugsley Addams was made to be as devious as sis Wednesday. If the two siblings weren't trying to kill each other, they found time to team up to serve toxic lemonade to unsuspecting passersby. In real life, Jimmy Workman was just an unassuming kid brother waiting for his sister to audition for the role of Wed...
Mother to Morticia, Grandmama Addams was originally described as having a morbid sense of humor and a devilishly keen interest in the occult, which actress Judith Malina played so deftly in The Addams Family. Starting out in theatre, Malina co-founded the experimental theatre company The Living Theatre with actor and director husband Julian Beck. A...
With her big sleepy eyes and scruffy voice, Carol Kane was a nice replacement in the sequel Addams Family Values, even if in real life, she's actually a year younger than pal Anjelica Huston. Often playing kooky, comedic characters, Kane walked into the sequel having already played memorable characters in films like Hester Street (1975), Annie Hall...
Mumbled, gloomy but always loyal, the towering figure of Lurch was played by Dutch actor Carel Struycken, who easily qualified for the role in the height category: Struycken is seven feet tall. Although Struycken's height is due to a hormone growth disorder, he has been able to use it — along with his distinctive facial features — to his advantage....
Actor John Franklin has been used to playing creepy and oddball characters, so accepting the role of small-statured, gibbery, hairy Cousin Itt wasn't a stretch. Before The Addams Family, Franklin was best known for playing the young cult leader Isaac Chroner from the film adaptation of Stephen King's Children of the Corn, which he would later repri...
For "Black Widow" Debbie Jellinsky, murdering was a profession she was really good at and the ability to manipulate masterfully was key. Who else but Joan Cusack could make us love the most hateful Debbie, who appears as the main antagonist inAddams Family Values? Big sister to John Cusack, Joan was an 80s darling of supporting roles in flicks like...
