Among the most ridiculous movies to be released in the last few years was Sausage Party, an animated feature that was definitely not for children starring the voices of Seth Rogan, Kristen Wiig, and Edward Norton. Now, the co-director of the raunchy food flick will be bringing THE ADDAMS FAMILY back to the screen with all new animated film from MGM.
Although the family is most known for their 1960s television series and 1990s film franchise (starring such talents as Raul Julia, Anjelica Huston, Christina Ricci and Christopher Lloyd), THE ADDAMS FAMILY first spooked American audiences in its 50-year run as a comic strip in The New Yorker. This new franchise will once again bring their unique brand of humor to a new generation of fans.
Vernon is no stranger to animation, having co-directed Shrek 2, Monsters vs. Aliens (also with Sausage Party star Seth Rogen), and Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted. He is joined by screenwriter Pamela Pettler, whose credits include Corpse Bride, Monster House, and 9; clearly, she has experience in writing creepy animated flicks.
THE ADDAMS FAMILY has no release date yet.
