Love is strange. Family is stranger.

The Addams Family dishes up a gloriously twisted family comedy built around every parent’s worst nightmare—especially Gomez Addams’. Wednesday, the Addams family’s most delightfully unsettling member has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a painfully normal family her parents have never met. Worse still, she confides in her father and demands absolute secrecy from Morticia, leaving Gomez to attempt the impossible: keeping a secret from his beloved wife. When both families gather for one spectacularly awkward dinner, secrets spill, chaos erupts, and the Addams clan is forced to confront love, change, and what it really means to be “normal.”
