After a Great Opening Weekend, THE ADDAMS FAMILY Gets a Sequel Order With a Release Date Already Set

After the nice, long holiday weekend we just had, the studios of MGM and UAR, who were behind the latest animated version of The Addams Family that opened this weekend are very happy with the numbers that rolled in for the film. They are so happy, in fact, that the sequel has already been ordered and given a release date of October 22, 2021.

The film was co-written and co-directed by Conrad Vernon, who worked on great animated films like Shrek and Monsters Vs. Aliens, and co-director Greg Tiernan, who worked on his own slate of wonderfully animated films that include An American Tail, The Land Before Time, and many Thomas & Friends films.

The Addams Family starred Charlize Theron, Oscar Isaac, Chloe Grace Moretz, Finn Wolfhard, Nick Kroll, Snoop Dogg, Bette Midler, Allison Janney, Martin Short, Catherine O’Hara, Tituss Burgess and many more.

I’m assuming most cast members are set to come back, if not all. I’ve heard great things about the movie, and my kids are dying to see it. They’ll be thrilled to know we are getting a sequel. Are you excited?
