The Addams Family
(spoiler free) Oscar Isaac as Gomez, Charlize Theron as Morticia, Bette Midler as Grandma! Sounds like perfect casting for a new Addams Family movie doesn’t it? So we can all be forgiven for feeling a little disappointed that this latest re-imagining takes an animated, rather than live-action form. However, disappointments aside there’s nothing to say…
