Jenna Ortega in the starring role was a great decision, many people began questioning Luis Guzmán’s casting as Gomez Addams.However, if you are an OG fan, you probably noticed that by far, among all the actors that had portrayed Gomez, Guzmán is the only one that closely resembles the actual cartoon.The Addams Family is a fictional family created by American cartoonist Charles Addams and initially published in The New Yorker in 1938. Charles’ comic was created as a satirical inversion of the ideal 20th-century American family.After publishing the macabre comic strip for 50 years, for the first time in 1964, people could see Gomez, Morticia Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester, Grandmama, Lurch, and Thing in a human form.

Angelica Huston, Raul Julia, Christina Ricci and Jimmy Workman famously portrayed The Addams Family, the macabre clan created by cartoonist Charles Addams in his 1960s comics, which have inspired iterations in movies, TV series, video games and a musical over the years.  Huston, Julia, Ricci and Workman starred as the main members of the eccentric brood in Barry Sonnenfeld’s 1991 film "The Addams Family" and its 1993 sequel "Addams Family Values". On Tuesday, Netflix released first look images of the new Addams Family in Tim Burton’s upcoming television series "Wednesday", starring Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Jenna Ortega and Isaac Ordonez.

She’s joined by Catherine Zeta-Jones (Morticia Addams), Luis Guzmán (Gomez Addams) and Isaac Ordonez (Pugsley Addams). The series is a sleuthing, supernaturally-infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy, where she attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town and solve the murder mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.“Wanna take a stab at being social?” a schoolmate at Nevermore Academy cheerily asks Wednesday in the teaser.

At 15, Christina Ricci appeared in a PG-13 comedy called Now and Then, in which four middle-aged best friends meet up to reflect on their teenage selves. Nearly 30 years later, Showtime’s Yellowjackets is that film’s hard-R evil twin, in which the fortysomething members of a New Jersey school’s female football team are haunted by memories of a traumatic plane crash that left them stranded when they were kids. It’s hard to pick a single performance from a terrific ensemble, but Ricci’s portrayal of the twisted Misty Quigley, played in flashback by Sammi Hanratty, is a standout in a series that shocks and surprises.

Like a number of her “Yellowjackets” co-stars, Christina Ricci is having another triumphant moment in an already impressive career. She just earned her second Emmy nomination for her portrayal as the adult Misty in the Showtime series and, this fall, will reunite with her “Sleepy Hollow” director Tim Burton for a new incarnation of “Wednesday.” The latter is based on the popular “Adams Family” character Wednesday Adams which was one of her breakthrough roles as a teenager.

Christina Ricci read the “Yellowjackets” script for the first time, she was fascinated by one specific quality of Misty Quigley: Her pettiness.At the start, she wasn’t told much about the character’s arc in the Showtime survival drama. She didn’t know that as a girl Misty was so desperate to be needed by her peers so after a plane crash, she chose to destroy the black box, which meant the girls were deserted for months.

The Addams Family and 1995’s Caspar, admitted that she wished she’d done some things differently across the decade.Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Ricci said: “This is very dark, but I would just like to go back to that age and do it over again and not make so many fucking mistakes. Honestly, I regret so much.“I’d like to go back to 1996 and be like, ‘All right… we had a practice run.

Christina Ricci wishes she could redo the '90s because she regrets so many of her choices. The 42-year-old actress made her movie debut as a child star in the 1990 movie Mermaids and followed it up with '90s classics such as Casper, The Addams Family, and Now and Then. Despite her professional success in that decade, Ricci confessed to her Yellowjackets co-stars Melanie Lynskey, Juliette Lewis, and Tawny Cypress in a joint interview that she is filled with regret about her mistakes during that time of her life.
