Morticia, Gomez, Uncle Fester, Wednesday, Pugsly, and Cousin It have been spooky and cooky for generations, and that doesn't look set to come to an end anytime soon. Regardless of the franchise's age, The Addams Family is set to bridge to new audiences next month.
After Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings smashed the box office, gaining pandemic and labor day weekend records, studios are promoting theater releases and even moving up schedules. The animated sequel to The Addams Family, appropriately titled The Addams Family 2, is one film headed to theaters soon, just in time for Halloween this year.
On October 1st, audiences will revisit The Addams Family universe with the characters brought back to life through the vocal talents of Oscar Isaac (Moon Knight), Charlize Theron (Mad Max: Fury Road), Chloe Grace-Moretz (Kick-Ass), Bill Hader (Saturday Night Live), Nick Kroll (Big Mouth), and more. Snoop Dogg, Bette Midler, Wallace Shawn, and Javon "Wanna" Walton also feature.
With the movie launching in theaters just three weeks from now, a fresh trailer has been released, and we've included it for you below. It gives a bit more context into what the adventure will be like than the first preview did, and you can enjoy the new video from The Addams Family 2 below.

Everyone’s favorite spooky family is back in the animated comedy sequel, The Addams Family 2. In this all new movie 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 Addams Family 2 hits theaters on October 1st.
