More than a year ago that Netflix announced the return of what for many is the most famous family on television. A family that is in the imaginary of the majority of people and that has had a multitude of adaptations in series, cinema, animation, theater and even in several video games. A product that has been skillfully renewed over the years so that new generations can enjoy it and it remains popular over time. And all by the hand of a very recognized director and whose artistic style houses perfectly with the project. Yes, we can say that the Addams family is back. Gómez, Morticia, Féido, Pugsley and above all Wednesday return to the action of the hand of Tim Burton In a miniseries that will arrive in Netflix this fall.
"Wednesday", the official name of the series, already leaves us some clues about the plot. In this case we can say that it will be a spin-off, since the series will revolve around the family's youngest daughter. Wednesday (Wednesday in Spanish), is how many know a quite different girl, with great problems to socialize and empathize with others. A dark, and evil girl at times (especially with her brother Pugsley) but who has a tender heart in the background. The series will show us its difficult teenage stage, in which it will discover its inner wrath and of course its psychic powers. All this, as expected, while a plot of murders and mystery will develop around it.
We can see the full family, its famous mansion and some classic characters in the series. All by the hand of Tim Burton, a director who has left fantastic works quite similar in style to which this franchise has been over the years. The scriptwriters and producers say that they intend to be faithful in the original style, that one more plot feels within what has already built instead of a restart of history. However, they already announce that they do not intend to be very continuous with the previous works and that there are many elements that will be renewed.
This series will have a luxury cast, with stars such as Catherine Zeta-Jones In the role of Morticia, Luis Guzmán Like the father of family and a young woman Jenna Ortega heading the poster like Wednesday. We still do not know the release date of the series but it will be in autumn. And of course, we will have all the chapters simultaneously, in the pure Netflix style. The trailer, released on August 17, leaves us wanting much more.
And if you are already a fan of the Addams family, in geek we have some parody designs of the Addams family (and many other movies and series) in Our website. As Morticia would say: "A toast for the mysteries of life, for which they keep the united families."
