Synopsis: In The Addams Family 2, we find Morticia and Gomez distraught that their children are growing up, skipping family dinners, and totally consumed with “scream time.” To reclaim their bond they decide to cram Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester, and the crew into their haunted camper and hit the road for one last miserable family vacation. Their adventure across America takes them out of their element and into hilarious run-ins with their iconic cousin, It, as well as many new kooky characters. What could possibly go wrong?
The newly released character posters show our beloved characters in full goth vacation mode.
Longtime fans of the The Addams may recognize the throwback to the 1973 cartoon TV series, in which the gang goes across the country in their camper. Originally airing on NBC, the show only lasted one season (16 episodes) and features the voices of Jodie Foster as Pugsley, Jackie Coogan returning to voice Uncle Fester, and Ted Cassidy returning to voice Lurch. The first season is currently on Tubi for free. Read more about that, and other awesome retro cartoons available on Tubi, here!
