Netflix, riding high on the success of its hit series “Wednesday,” is set to delve deeper into the macabre yet whimsical world of the Addams Family. The streaming giant, in collaboration with MGM Television, is developing a spinoff series centered around the beloved character Uncle Fester. This expansion follows the triumph of “Wednesday,” which has captivated audiences with its unique blend of horror and comedy.

Fred Armisen, known for his versatile comedic roles, is slated to bring Uncle Fester to life in this new venture. His involvement in the Addams Family universe was first teased in October 2022 through a trailer for “Wednesday.”

Armisen, who gained fame through shows like “Saturday Night Live” and “Portlandia,” is no stranger to diverse and eccentric characters. His recent television credits include appearances in “Barry,” “What We Do in the Shadows,” and “Los Espookys,” showcasing his range in both comedy and more nuanced roles.

Uncle Fester, a character immortalized by Jackie Coogan in the original “Addams Family” series and later by Christopher Lloyd in the 1991 and 1993 feature films, is known for his quirky and endearing personality. Armisen’s portrayal of Uncle Fester in the seventh episode of “Wednesday” was met with enthusiasm, as he expressed a personal connection and excitement for the role.

“Wednesday” Universe: Expanding the Addams Family Legacy

The showrunners of “Wednesday,” Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, along with the iconic director Tim Burton, have created a captivating world that blends gothic elements with a modern twist.

The series not only revisits classic characters like Morticia, Gomez, and Pugsley Addams, played by Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Isaac Ordonez respectively, but also introduces new, intriguing characters. The ensemble cast includes Gwendoline Christie, Jamie McShane, and Christina Ricci, among others.

The first season of “Wednesday” was a record-breaking phenomenon on Netflix, achieving the most hours viewed for an English language series in its debut week. This success led to its renewal for a second season, which is moving production from Romania to Ireland and is expected to start filming in April.

A New Chapter in the Addams Family Saga

The development of the Uncle Fester series signifies Netflix’s commitment to expanding the Addams Family universe. This move aligns with the growing trend of exploring character-centric stories within established franchises, offering fresh perspectives and deeper insights into beloved characters. The new series is anticipated to explore Uncle Fester’s adventures, further enriching the already vibrant world of the Addams Family.
