According to the Daily Express Tim Burton is taking on the creation of a new animated 3D version of The Addams Family. He is hoping CG will resurrect the spooky Addams Family, who last appeared on the big screen in 1993’s Addams Family Values.
Deadline.com has reported that Illumination Entertainment acquired the rights to the original cartoons by Charles Addams and the company’s boss Chris Meledandri will act as producer. Tim Burton’s intention is to stay away from the original TV series or the 90s films and instead get closer to the original “Addams Family” designs once published in New Yorker Magazine.
