GOMEZ ADDAMS (Luiz Guzmán)
>The patriarch of the Addams Family, Wednesday's father, and a former student of Nevermore Academy.
That... that's a joke, right?
I mean, I don't hate the guy but this seems to be way the frick out of his wheelhouse, especially considering his voice.
>Especially considering his voice
What’s wrong with his voice?
Too high-pitched and flamboyant.
How is flamboyant not right for Gomez?
The frick?
He is so fricking ugly, why the frick could it not have been Pedro Pascal?
Egg-fricking-zactly!!!! He would've been perfect. Pedro Pascual was a missed opportunity. I didn't even think this guy was Gomez until I read it. Frick Netflix. At least they didn't cancel Arcane so frick them but not as hard today.
You didn't think he was a character who was originally canonically brown and ugly?
What? Gomez was brown and ugly? The comics?
Pig like in appearance even
>He is ugly
Do gringos really think this is ugly?
dude looks like a Wizard. It's hard to picture him as Gomez
That guy from the 90s really got Gomez's feel right. He looks fricking horrifying and to think he's a loving husband and a supportive father.
I am saying that this Gomez and the aura about him is just so creepy that one of the persons portraying him, the one from the 90s movies was fantastic in giving the character the creepy that I get from this pic.
watch the 60s show I feel exudes the comics intent raul julia wasn't creepy at all besides what he said
>He is so fricking ugly, why t
Gomez is ugly
makes sense to me.
bruh
>Ugly Bastard N
>once again people forget that Gomez is ugly in the original comic
I like the actor but hes no Gomez.
This troll is going to play the charming Gomez?

She makes FAS look hot
BIANCA BARCLAY (Joy Sunday)
>One of Nevermore Academy’s most popular students, Bianca descends from a long line of Sirens with a mesmerizing power to persuade, and is used to having her way, but finds her match in Wednesday.

YOKO TANAKA (Naomi Ogawa)

Hot.
AJAX PETROPOULOS (Georgie Farmer)
>A student at Nevermore Academy who also happens to be a Gorgon. Awkward and shy, Ajax is anxious about looking anyone in the eye.
So this is just that Adventures of Sabrina show but with the Addam's Family instead?
No but yes.
Sounds more like a Munsters tvshow
Seems more like monster high
EUGENE OTINGER (Moosa Mostafa)
>One of Nevermore Academy’s quirkiest students and the president of the school’s beekeeping club.
Where's Thing?
TAMARA NOVAK (Christina Ricci)

DR. VALERIE KINBOTT (Rikki Lindhome)
>A local therapist in the sleepy town of Jericho who takes a particular interest in her newest patient Wednesday Addams.
They'll just nig it up so who cares
It's not meant for your kind.
Glad you're not watching, so you don't have to fill this board with your garbage opinions on it.
>it's already confirmed to be a wokeshit deconstruction of the show with raceswapped characters
Cool. Everyone can safely ignore this.
I normally say this about black recolors, but as a Hispanic we fricking love The Adams. Now if they start using Latinx then this show can get fricked.
I blame Raul Julia for playing such a fricking great Gomez that now every subsequent adaptation has to be portrayed a "Latin lover" stock character. It's OK for Gomez to just be a quirky white guy like John Astin and Tim Curry every now and then.
Gomez was at least Spanish or a mix on the original so if you hate race swapping you should be made at Tim Curry's version.
The original cartoonist said he was a latin lover type. Goes all the way back to the original tv show
they literally said they cast john austin because he can do creepy faces
>raceswapped
>family patriarch's name is Gomez
And /misc/tards say libs are easily triggered.
He's supposed to be from Spain, not South America.
SHERIFF DONOVAN GALPIN (Jamie McShane)
>Tyler's estranged father and the local sheriff, Donovan was born and bred in Jericho, and has always had an issue with Nevermore Academy and a vendetta against former student Gomez Addams.
LARISSA WEEMS (Gwendoline Christie)
>The domineering principal of Nevermore Academy who still has an axe to grind with her former classmate Morticia Addams
where's thing and cousin itt and uncle fester and grandmama
So, you work for the studio or marketing company hired by the studio.
Maybe your Boomer Superiors, should have told you to go to Cinemaphile you corporate slave!
Meds.
Why are they latinos now?
Eh Raul Julia was a fantastic Gomez so I can go with a Spanish background. Though their choice of Gomez gives me pause.
So long as they stick to Spanish and not Mexican.
I like Luiz Guzman well enough to give him a shot.
Spanish doesn't fit with latino shit as seen by an american studio tho.
>Spanish doesn't fit with latino shit as seen by an american studio tho.
Look at how he looked in the original comics
That's basically /misc/'s goblino meme.
Gomez is a spanish name, just sayin.
>Gomez is a spanish name, just sayin.
'Gomez' was made up by the tv show, in the original comic they were just known as the 'Addams'.
Is Addams?
Latino people are very goth. The entire culture of mexico is just ghost women who drown their babies and skeleton parties, dude.
I hope we see a resurgance of 90s and 2000s era of goth when more hispanics intermingle with american culture
Like King of the Goths Jhonen Vasquez. What a great era. Hispanic goth chicks are the best.
I would love that but you know it would be pozzed. Goth kids today don’t even know their music history.
As someone who currently dating a goth latina, I couldn't agree more.
Netflix can’t help themselves
>now
I'm going to take a step back and write what I think it really is, broader than just diversity casting. There's a trend in America to have mexicans replace whites as the "new whites", hence language like "Latinas are whites" or "White-hispanic". I don't mind Gomez specifically being some Mexican, but there's not much of an excuse for the rest of the cast. They fricked up even that and cast some Black looking "latinx"
so this is a skip.

Is millar going to make wednesday have an incest baby with pugsly like the b***h from nemesis?
I'm seriously confused why people are upset that the daughter of a Spanish man named Gomez isn't white.
I just find it funny how defensive this place gets about race whenever it's Hispanics being shat on
shut the frick up gringo
I always knew this place was just a bunch of hispanics pretending to be white
im a white brazillian whose favorite character is uncle fester
Welcome to MexiCinemaphile puta
Half of this website's userbase consists of fat, angry Mexican manlets.
At least half the posters here are Hispanic. If you haven't notice that yet i suggest taking a DNA test.
I use the term "Latinx" on Cinemaphile just because it makes dozens of them come out of the woodworks seething. I'd never be caught using that term dead IRL but the absolute level of seethe it causes them is fricking hilarious to me.
Spain =/= South America
Though, Americans are moronic about that stuff and admittedly, the original comics depicted a trollish dark dude.
Let's just assume Gomez is descended from the Moors.
So it's just an Addams family show? Why call it Wednesday?
It's about her at a boarding school. I'm guessing the family will just small appearances now and then.
So this is going to be like Riverdale or that new Sabrina show where it gives us a dramatic reinterpretation of a traditionally comic or lighthearted series that no one asked for?
Probably. The young male cast make it look like this is going to be the Wednesday Who Fricks. The simplest option would be to make it more like a boarding school version of summer camp, but we don't deserve such nice things.
ToT Uooooooh
That's a grown up adult woman. No correction needed here.
Will we also get a top-tier joke like this?
LMFAO
I wish illumination and disney had edgier jokes like this in their films
LORD the definition on her ass!
You weren't kidding
Did they give Thing a watch just so he could have an eye?
yes the director want people to understand how he knows where he is going
...
That's "who pumps Batman's tires" levels of dumb.
How can he see? How can he live? He's a hand. He can't eat. He doesn't have a heart. He doesn't have a brain.
No eyes is so far down on the list of things that are missing from Thing.
Sounds like something they added because some moron in the test audience asked about it in the passing.
Wait, where's Uncle Fester?
my guess is he's the big reveal at the end of the season if it's renewed
That... that doesn't sound like The Adams Family...
I mean, the only thing there that doesn't basically transfer directly from the movies is the idea of Wednesday having to work to resolve interpersonal dynamics.
>magical bullshit that requires knowledge to use
>wacky location
>stopping a killer
>a family mystery
>"Wednesday" show that has virtually nothing to do with the Addams family
>"Velma" show that's tryhard adult family with a raceswap "Velma" and no interest in Mystery Inc.
>"Lightyear" movie that tries to be SERIOUS SCIENCE FICTION instead of the pulpy spaceman schlock Buzz was intended to be from the start
>”Wednesday" show that has virtually nothing to do with the Addams family
It’s a solo story about Wednesday and her extended family do make appearances. WTF are you talking about.
The family are slated to make "appearances" but it's about her at school. A school for kids with superpowers, like Wednesday has*.
*Wednesday has never had powers in any take on the Addams Family until now.
What powers will Wednesday have?
It's an entirely good idea to do a Wednesday spin off where she interacts largely with people who aren't her family, and lives at the school.
>This is a good idea
Sure.
Right up there with Lightyear and Velma.
Where the frick is Fester?
>dust off the Mai the Psychic Girl script and change some names
Bravo Tim.
Your generation is such a disappointment, Everyone hoped you'd turn out better than the Boomers, but no, you're the same.
Wrong board
>The Addams Family is not a comic strip
this show sure as frick isn't. if you want an addams family comic strip thread, make an addams family comic strop thread, because this one says "Netflix's WEDNESDAY Full Cast Announcement"
>Cinemaphile has several DC Comics and Marvel live action threads because muh capes
>Make a live action Addams Family live action thread about an upcoming series
>Oh shit, homie, what are you doing?
You can't have it both ways.
>Make a live action Addams Family live action thread
>Abloo bloo bloo only capeshit adaptations are allowed to be talked here, not newspaper comic strip adaptations
You sound like the kind of guy that can only jerk it to e-girlcon
I’m sure you jerk it to pre-teen pussy
>Celebrity Psychic
>San Francisco Werewolf
>Siren
>Harajuku Vampire
>Gorgo
So what's Wednesday?
An Addams
Morticia and Mama are canonically witches, so I'm guessing Wednesday is also a witch, she just happens to have an extra telekinesis power due to her strong bloodline.
They aren’t in any version witches Where did you get that idea
and grandma addams studied fortune telling and turns and never actually was succesful at it, they just studied weird thing
They're more Shakespearean potion and portent witches than wave a wand and cast hexes witches. We don't usually see that out of Morticia though.
>Taking the joke that the Addams are supposed to represent European Immigrants and turning them into muttspics.
Hilarious. The fact that they were literally based on a dozen old world stereotypes right down to having a butler is totally lost on the modern superficial generation.
Let's break it down
>Morticia sounding french
>Gomez being spanish
>Addams being a welsh last name
>Pugsley being english sounding
>Wednesday being english sounding
>Large extended family consistently comes from the old country
>Constantly references eastern european customs
>Have a butler and a handyman
But no, Californians literally cannot think of a worlder beyond their beaner coastline. It's a good cosmic joke really.
What point do you think you're making here?
Ivory tower homosexuals strip everything from a premise and wear it down into the most barest nub of it.
We went from kooky spooky family to Harry Potter and the half-blood dyke.
lol ok homosexual
Twitter mad
"abloo bloo white genocide" same as every other post on this snowflake board.
I'm pretty sure appearance is not the relevant factor for sirens.
Its meant to contrast the difference of both worlds colliding when a super natural demonic goth girl meets with the usually shallow alpha stacy or normie super ace.
>where she attempts to master her emerging psychic ability,
why o why not just create a new ghot franchise for that stuff?
>that casting
they couldn't get the rights for Monster high or something?
That’s already getting it’s own live action adaptation.
>The firstborn of the creepy and kooky Addams family
It is interesting how Wednesday is usually portrayed as the older sibling these days.
In Chas Addams originals, I don't think we ever learned if any of them were the older sibling, but every adaption before the 1991 movie had Wednesday as the little sister. So did the 1992 cartoon.
Agreed, then again Christina Ricci really stole the show when she played Wednesday, every version after that is just trying to emulate that because she's the popular version.
>Coomer art
So what?
You are such a sad creature.
Wednesday is way cooler than Pugsley after Ricci played her, so it makes sense to make her older to expand what stories you can do with her.
>>The firstborn of the creepy and kooky Addams family
When did this business of Wednesday being older than Pugsley start anyway? I don't think even the '90s films said she was older.
Why are there psychics and werewolves and shit in this? I thought the whole point of the Addams was that they circus freaks and weirdos, not actually supernatural creatures.
>What is Cousin IT
>Second movie has the baby literally spit fire
>It's implied multiple times they can revive people buried on their family graveyard
>It's the fricking Addams Family, featuring supernatural stuff is part of the joke
All I want is a bondage scene as god-tier as the one in Values.
There's a what in Values now?
Jenna does look pretty cute gagged
>is now a young woman attending Nevermore Academy
OK
>where she attempts to master her emerging psychic ability
... yeah OK
>thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town of Jericho
Hmm
>solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago
Uhh
>all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships
Oh
Well what did you expect, they went for a 'teen' show. Teen boys no longer watch tv, they play videogames, so they have to focus on teen girls, which is also a problem as most of them spend their time on Tik Tok and gossiping with their friends 24/7.
Most shows are aimed at single women aged 28+, because they and people in retirement homes are the ones still watching television.
I think they could have easily made it a sitcom show like the original
NO

Ok
There are places you can go to get help. Ask your doctor for a referral to a mental health professional.
Sarcasm won't save you troony.
You are the one who needs to get locked up in a mental psych ward.
If you defend N*tflix, you are a degenerate abomination who needs to be put down.
It wasn't sarcasm, it was genuine concern. Your family is worried about you. You are showing classic red flags.
>young woman attending Nevermore Academy, where she attempts to master her emerging psychic ability
This sounds like they had a pitch that they put the Addams family into. I think that's what they did for that Winx reboot too.
>Addams Family
>Not cool with gruesome murder
Why?
