Catherine Zeta-Jones will play Morticia Addams in a new Addams Family series directed by Tim Burton.
In the follow-up series based around a teenage Wednesday Addams, Netflix has announced that the Welsh actress will play the delightfully sultry and macabre mother of the gothic clan.
Traffic star Luis Guzmán is joining her as her hopelessly devoted, and just as kooky, husband Gomez.
You’s Jenna Ortega will play leading lady Wednesday, as she spends her teenage years at Nevermore Academy and learns about her psychic abilities.
She’s also got to solve a monstrous killing spree and deal with relationships for the first time.
Smallville creators Al Gough and Miles Millar are writing the series, with Corpse Bride and Nightmare Before Christmas legend Tim Burton directing.
Who has previously played Morticia Addams?
The Addams Family matriarch is beloved for her devotion to her family – as well as an ultra-sultry attitude and a spider-like fashion sense.
Anjelica Houston’s version of the character is perhaps the most famous. She appears in the 1991 and 1994 films, The Addams Family and Addams Family Values.
But Carolyn Jones originated the role back in the TV series, which ran from 1964 to 1966.
