Exactly. They’re all sweet-and-sour in their demeanors. Ideal for the Addams family.

Didn’t even know it had illustrations

Why do you need any of them to be voice actors? They’re all live action actors and Theron is the only one of the core cast who’s done voice work before. She was already in Robot Chicken and Kubo and the Two Strings.

They will hopefully do well surpassing the previous Addams’s...

At least they actually look like the original comic strip.

It feels very appropriate that these actors have been cast for this particularly offbeat animation. Moretz aside, none of them seem like the kinds of actors who’d just throw in with any old cutsie star-cast animation for a quick buck.
It’s all very in wheelhouse, which makes it more exciting for me.

Can we also talk about how awesome it is they’ve gone with the style of Addams’ original comic illustrations?

So glad this is animated. As good as the live action was, being animated means they can push more boundaries. You can do things that are much darker, more horror film like, and play it for laughs in ways that live action just can’t pull off. At least not without getting an R rating, while animation could pull it off…

Not gonna lie, if someone on DeviantArt had made that just as a cool rendering of the Addams Family, I would have immediately downloaded it as my new desktop.

Like that Gomez has a tan. This could be cool. Cartoon folks today can make stuff seem REALLY creepy. They should push the envelope with this.

New Addams Family! I have to get ready.

This seems like a nice modern update of the original Charles Adams illustrations. It’s a shame we arent seeing Oscar Issacs play Gomez in live action Movie. He’d be perfect

Aw, I was hoping for a live action Theron as Morticia.

I like it. Definitely evokes the look of the Charles Addams illustrations.

Agreed. Sausage Party was crude, but it didn’t make its crudeness the focus of the whole movie. The movie had themes, decent character arcs, and a point to it that it followed through on right until the end.
That’s what I was hoping this would turn out to be. I think I’m going to be disappointed.

Sausage Party had some unexpected substance to it. Themes of the importance of social skepticism and critical thinking, while remaining respectful to the people around you who’s deeply held beliefs are really important to them. It definitely wasn’t a one joke movie, which this is really looking like.
I was hoping it…

This looks like Melissa McCarthy’s “Theodore Rex”.

I was hoping for something a little more stylish and satirical than just puppets swearing and having sex, but at least the comic timing here seems on point. I’m gonna choose to remain optimistic that there’s a little more wit here than the trailer would indicate.

Hard same. And movie that doesn’t flinch on the realities or takes a hard left into “its all worth it” territory is a big win for me.
