The Addams Family trailer: Morticia, Gomez and co struggle to adjust to life in New Jersey suburbs

Gomez and Morticia Addams will return with their motley band of family members in Conrad Vernon’s 2019 update to  The Addams Family . They are ‘kooky’ and ‘creepy’, but are trying their level best to adjust to the New Jersey way of being. The trailer follows the Addams’ family as they relocate to a posh New Jersey neighbourhood. They find an enormous mansion to their liking, but their macabre lifestyle makes them stick out like a sore thumb amid the ’normalcy’ of their new address. From playing Battleship with actual explosives to resurrecting dead frogs in a Biology class, the family becomes a subject of constant scrutiny and curiosity in the neighborhood. However, Wednesday Addams, the daughter of Gomez and Morticia, seems to be making friends in her new school. Check out the trailer here 

They're creepy. They're kooky. And they're moving into the neighborhood. Watch the new trailer and #MeetTheAddams Family in theaters October 11! 🖤 pic.twitter.com/wodcmG8bGr
