Things You Didn't Know About The Addams Family

1. The 10 year old actor Christina Ricci lead a actor rebelion

Wednesday or Christina Ricci was the one who wanted the imposter (Fester) to actually really be Fester. In the original script it was still to be decided but the writters were going to just leave it being a imposter of their unkle. the only actor to not care was Christopher Lloyd the man who played Fester.

2. Wednesday's name comes from a mother goose poem

"Wednesday's child is full of woe."

3. Whose mom is the Grandma?

At this point who knows. In the original TV series the was Gomez's mom but in the movies she's Morticia's. This was brought up as a joke in the Addams family musical when Gomez said "My mother? I thought she was your mother!"

4. Cousin it is now a highschool teacher

5. Eye strings. OUCH!

In the original cartoon Morticia Addams had unnatural slanted eyes so in order to obtain this effect they attached strings to actor Anjelica Huston's eyes.

6. More pain for Anjelica Huston

Not only did she have strings on her eyes. the carrecter also had a unnatural shapped waist so she also wore a tight metal corset around her waist and she definently didn't apriciate that "Come afternoon, I could be prone to a really good headache from my various bondages and because I couldn't lie down [in the corset] or rest, it was fairly exhausting."
