- That Tim Burton broke filmmaking traditions when it came to casting Gomez Addams for his new Netflix adaptation of The Addams Family? Typically, in Addams Family adaptations of years gone by, Gomes Addams, the father of Wednesday Addams, is portrayed as a handsome and dashing man. Previous actors who have occupied the role include, John Astin in the 1962 version, Raul Julia in the 1991 and 1995 movie adaptations, and Tim Curry in 1998’s The Addams Family Reunion. However, in the original New Yorker cartoon, Gomez Addams is portrayed as rather a portly individual. Director of Wednesday, Tim Burton, may have changed a few details from the story’s original cartoon for his most recent Netflix update, but he did stay true to the cartoon’s vision of Gomez. Burton cast Luiz Guzman in the role of Gomez and the actor has a lot more in common physically with the original cartoon than other actors who have previously played the role.

Usually Gomez is probably the most expressive out of everyone. His passion for Mortisha is always stated out loud with absolutely no regret, and he's the probably also the most caring out of the family.
Agree he supposed to be very over the top slightly theatrical he’s also supposed to be very very agile even if he is chubbier or bigger in general I could give a less shit it’s just the amount of grace that he supposed to show in dramatic schism did not go along with itself it was weird it wasn’t the right way it felt slimy he’s not supposed to feel slimy it also felt too forced like he’s never supposed to feel forced he supposed to feel dramatic and enchanting regardless of how he might look like the aura around him off
no.

I feel like the actor is the kind of guy who looks like he's in a gang, but really baked cakes and has cat kitchen decor
No, not really. The first part is why he got casted in Narcos.
LOL 😂
The actor is indeed usually cast as a bad guy: gang member, drug trafficker, hit man, etc… I’ve always seen him as a bad guy!! 😂. I’m glad to see him play something different!!
He’s pretty good in Journey to the Mysterious Island
@@GodsChildrenOnEarth1 I've only seen gozman in comedic rules.
@@GodsChildrenOnEarth1 Dude used to be in Pablo Escobar's Cartel (The Medellín Cartel) in Columbia. He was a kingpin and killed multiple people. He was called José Gonzalo Rodríguez Gacha.
He is portrayed as a handsome and dashing man
The actor: *WTF DID I DO TO YOU*
I was looking at all the references like this is handsome n dashing ? I guess I'm god
He is handsome and dashing 😤
But if you look at the original cartoon of the Adam's family.....he's (Luis) is more accurate as gomez.....he is literally how he is drawn....th-cam.com/users/shortsbAC1vgOcO8k?feature=share
@@andreathomas2099 I KNOW ITS KINDA STUPID HOW PEOPLE BEING MEAN TO HIM LIKE THAT
No they literally did his makeup to make him ugly
Luis Guzman is a fucking gem of a actor who goes criminally under rated
Yea I remember him in the count of monte cristo
Yes..but his look does keep him from certain roles..hell of an actor tho
Agreed
Facts and it was nice seeing him as something other than a coke dealer I feel like he gets “type” casted a lot
Absolutely you can say #1 supporting actor that's been in everything
he has this spooky but also loving vibe in his looks while having a gentleman and dashing mannerism.
Luis Guzman is a great actor, he can play villains, sidekick and supporting character. That's how flexible he is. He executed his character flawlessly when he played Jose Rodriguez Gacha in Narcos. And sidekick as Jacopo in Count of Monte Cristo
Yes! He's an incredible actor and adapts to every role he's won.....over hundreds of actors who auditioned.
Gotta love Jacopo!
I couldn’t have been happier when I heard the news that he had won of the role. After I saw the show, all my happiness was rewarded. Honestly, I didn’t think I would love CZJ in the role of Morticia, but as in every other role she’s played, she humbled me for my opinion.😊💕💫
Bro he was the best as gacha
I think my favorite role of his is from Carlito's Way
hes actually adorable, im glad they went with him. The addams family is all about embracing being different and loving it!
i love luiz guzman and catherine zeta. imo they make such a perfect modern day tish and gomez, they’re both absolutely perfect in their roles and total sweethearts on set according to their fellow cast members 🫶
Okay, we can overlook their heritage is the macob and psychopathic murders they all are twistedly lovable to their own. It was a great spin on the happy and goody, goody family tropes, plus their old money. So they do what they want. Good series.
And this mortisha didn't have to glue her eyes open.( I think)
Raul Julia brought so much passion I cannot ever think on someone else for that role...
Exactly
Facts 💯💯
yes🙌
This
Well if THAT'S THE WAY YOU FEEL..... *I DON'T GIVE A DAAAAAAAMN* 🎶

He is lol
Guzman was an excellent choice for Wednesday's dad. But on a scale from a 0 to supermodel 10, where do you place him in the looks department?
@@molnaredmond he's clearly peak male specimen.

@@sappy5143 yes because they are chubby
He probably stinks
Im sure you had good intentions, but if you say this to any bigger individual they will most likely take offense. Please don’t say this.
He is the perfect actor for the role. He looks appropiate for a typical dad.
But the point of the Adams family originally was to be the opposite of a 'normal, typical' family. Hence why Gomez is usually an attractive older man he deeply, passionatly and openly adores his wife.
Why the mom is not ugly then?
@@bonniecox1638
All the other actors were much better looking either
he looks like a human pumpkin
He was an appropriate dad on Narcos too lmao
Can't beat Raul's energy he brought to the performance
I just saw that as him being older than the other versions especially since he was conventionally attractive in the flashbacks lol
He's fine asf in flashbacks
@@KissKrys fr
Same, in the other versions wednesday is like 10, so ofcourse Gomez would change in looks like wednesday
@@KissKrys I knowww omg
Yeah I just thought he get fat with age XD
Bro he legit is perfect for the role, older cartoons portrayed him as a plump man with a big moustache he's picture oerfect
Agrees
Yeah I agree the only thing I didn’t like is I just don’t like this actor I didn’t like how they wrote Gomez for this show
In every iteration of Gomez I'm simping for him
Yeah! I was quite pleased with the series because that’s how I would’ve pictured him
Nah they didn't. He wore a big 1920s mafioso style double breasted suit. He was never fat. He was muscular and he was as broad as lurch. And that was actually part of his character and a repeating theme, that Gomez was stronk af.
Anyone who says this never actually saw the strips imo. Gomez wasn't like this. This Gomez doesn't look like he has otherworldly strength. I'm not gonna be insulting to the guy but he makes Gomez look as though he got depressed and started binging.
He's been portrayed correctly with every actor in this video 😭
ngl i like every version of him
Yes yes true 👍🏿 🙌
We all see it 💀💀🤣🤣🤣
Wasn't gomez always chubby?
@@comment2122 yes, but the movie versions wasn't bad, I just think this guy is the best one yet, hopefully we see more of him in season 2
He’s literally like a dad. You wouldn’t call you dad “hot” so like for a show about his daughter I think it’s great that he looks more and gives more of a father vibe
I was about to say the same thing
He'll no
Why cant he be both a father and a handsome charmer? Is there some law that states that no one can be both?
I think that when you bring back iconic characters, you use the best versions as a template and the best version of Gomez Addams was Raul Julia.
More like creeper vibes.
He doesn’t look ugly, he looks friendlier than the rest tho. With the flashbacks they portrayed him as a very attractive person just that as he’s aged he well- looks his age.
Not raul julia
Nope he’s ugly as hell I dislike Wednesday because they changed too many things from the story
Stop lying lolllll
He is ugly lol
he doesnt look friendly what
bro just made a whole video to call him ugly 😭😭😭💀
and fat
💀💀💀💀💀💀
Casting be like
" one of the reasons we chose u is because in all old movies Gomez is handsome"
"Thank you very mu..."
"Yeah, we wanted to change that"
Why hollywood butchers everything ? No wonder no good movie was released after 2010, they put abominations of an actor's for each role
@@arcanewondersfann1567 They wanted to be true to the original creation. It not really butchering when it’s how it should be.
@@arcanewondersfann1567 ah yes being true to the source means they are butchering it
@@arcanewondersfann1567 because they wanted to lean into the ugly Gomez in the comics? And I’m guessing spiderverse, Top gun maverick, tick tick boom, HTTYD 2-3, infinity war, NWH, the Batman, KFP 2-3, the last duel, Macbeth, just about anything made by Pixar, everything made by A24, Puss in boots the last wish, John wick, ect are all meaningless for your comment to make a lick of sense. And you seriously think a films quality is based on an actor being attractive? And you really said “older Hollywood was better” no it wasn’t. Don’t act like they haven’t sucked then and haven’t made anything good after.
In original Addams family comic strip in 1936 Gomes Addams resembled Peter Lorre that was overweight.
He did Gomez perfectly. I never felt a scene with him where he couldn’t go completely batshit psycho on someone at any given moment, and the way he fauns over Morticia is very well done.
Actually he absolutely gives fatherly vibes and is perfect for dad's role
On what planet
i mean, in the other adaptations, he was a younger, more dashing man, as he got older he became well, older, the flashbacks of him being framed of killing gates shows he was a young, handsome and dashing
Ofcourse, it was a very natural turn honestly
He was the perfect Gomez he literally looks like the exact version of the original design for Gomez
Says that but cries when they cast white people for shows and movies that have whites people
Looking like the original =/= good casting.
@@AnonYmous-ci7ey I think it is good casting because it's accurately portraying the character? Not to mention the guy casted as Gomez is a good actor

except the cartoon version is Spanish
@@bostinobaddog2040 the actor is Hispanic
At first, I wasn't sure he would've portrayed Gomez that well but I was quite amazed at his performance.
It'll always be Raul for me... he has this certain sweetness about him that I find utterly irresistible
Absolutely. John Astin was great too, but Raul certainly had that more romantic, gentleman like, passionate attitude. He challenged MC Hammer to a duel for flirting with Morticia after all.
He was a good person to play Gomez!!!

I disagree, as he is fit more to play comedic roles, and barely had any chemistry with morticia

@@sageof6pandas233 i felt the exact same way! Love the a for but he had no chemistry with Morticia. Also Morticia was a bad casting choice as well.

True
yeah he just got old like be fr
He was as far away from perfekt as possible sorry to say so
I'm glad Tim Burton actually hired him! He's perfect for the role. I instally knew who the character was when I saw him.
I think he means Luis Guzman has a more dad look to him and does in fact look more like the original design of Gomez. He also vibes really well with Catherine Zeta Jones's Morticia on screen.
I am so tired of people calling the actor ugly. He's a person, damn.
So if you're ugly, you're not considered a person? As an ugly person, I find this very offensive
@@rshawn4303 as a fellow ugly guy myself, I agree wholeheartedly.

@@IfWiccanYouCan looks might not matter, but if you're ugly you're ugly, why try to sugarcoat everything. As you say it doesn't matter, so why not say things as they are?
He literally was portrayed correctly everytime 😭 gomez has always been a larger man
Really? Raul Julia was never a larger man. John Astin didn't look like that either
@@jadeshepherd8627 the original comics hun, he was large and not really attractive looking man, his charm is his personality
Also all of gomez versions are weird looking, don't pretend, it's his attitude is the main attractive so no one says anything lmao
they mean large as in fluffy, round, fat. in the original cartoons he was always portrayed as a short fat man, almost half the size of Morticia
@Manu Mooo 1. Calling me hun was patronizing and not necessary when I wasn't being hateful whatsoever
2. They said everytime, meaning comics and films. Gomez wasn't portrayed as a physically bigger man in the films so your point is bullshit, like your condescending attitude. Plus Raul Julia and John Astin were hot in my opinion, to say I am lying is disregarding my opinion. More important point is, you could have explained this without talking down to me; yet you did for some weird reason because I wasn't being hateful. Thanks tp you, I'll probably never ask a simple question on the Internet again because ill get condescending answers for know it all like you who get off from acting like they're superior to others just for having more knowledge on a subject. But congratulations, your shocking attitude is part of the reason why social media is turning people miserable
That’s fine I have issue with the portrayal of his acting fuck him being a larger man as well as the way they did his make up and the suit they put him in the way they made him sit I don’t like any of that stuff but I do like that at least they kept them tan like he’s always been
Luis Guzman is a fantastic actor and deserves every compliment that comes his way.
He's not ugly he age like every father. He got a dad bod now. 😆
No they did uglify him on purpose.
He doesn't look like that normally, at the very least his teeth anyway.
Ugo
Those previous live action adaptations also focused on making Gomez a good romantic/sensual partner for Morticia. Guzman's version focuses more on his relationship with Wednesday, and the more portly look makes him more fatherly. Same could be said for Zeta-Jones' Morticia; she's a lot softer and less vivacious because they're portraying a mother, not a lover. This is also when Wednesday is a teenagers, not a child so it makes sense that Burton went for a more aged look as opposed to how they've been portrayed when Wednesday was a child. Teen Gomez looks a lot more like past versions
The problem original stories always considered him almost toad like, he would appear like the greedy businessmen with pot bellies and well attire, but the break from that trope is he the most fatherly and positive form of that appearance.
I agree to this!
Nicely broken down
Don’t think those older adaptations were supposed to make gomez hot either by their beauty standards at the time, we just think Gomez was hot because he’s iconic. They’re supposed to still be the weird head of the weird family.
What great insight! When I read this, it was just too perfect of a description.
I was literally talking about this with my brother cuz he thought it was an odd choice for Gomez's casting, but I loved the actor they got to play him for this show as it's more accurate to the original cartoon
It's more accurate to the *original* cartoon sure but he really doesn't have all that much charisma or chemistry with Morticia
@@jackcassidy9963right every time he did that flirtatious kissing up her hand scenes I had to skip over like I couldn’t. Raul Julia will always be my perfect Gomez and if Johnny depo were Hispanic he would have been perfect for this role
I cannot for the life of me see Tim Curry without immediately thinking back to "SPACE!"
The handsome Gomez actually appears in a flashback of him and Morticia where Gomez takes the blame after Morticia kills someone by accident to defend Gomez however Gomez tells a different story to Wednesday where he killed that someone. This kinda also shows how loyal and loving Gomez is to Morticia
Exactly, he looks like a typical man after some years of marriage.
They also have more chemistry then the older versions.
@@LA-mz1ddJust say you’ve never watch any other adaptation
@khiaaltima6152 1. I've watched every adaptation including the Broadway play.
2. I was referring to the younger versions of Gomez and Morticia having better chemistry than Guzman and Zeta-Jones.
How to say the actor's ugly, without saying the actor's ugly 😭
Raul Julia is so handsome, like bro look at him
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING
"Of course!" He is.
The man is not even ugly, in fact he's actually quite good looking for a man his age
What, do you think he is 100?
I think they did well in the casting. Wednesday is a teenager now, and this actor looks to be a naturally aged Gomez. They did cast a pretty handsome actor to portray Gomez's younger self
casting of morticia could be done better
@@iamvanshgandhi I don't have any opinions on who was cast as Morticia. Sure, she does not have that iconic air about her in this series but then again the focus is going to mostly just be Wednesday. To keep the focus on Wednesday, I'd argue they needed more low-key roles for her parents. If they catch too much love and attention from the audience, the audience will demand them to have more screen time in a show that isn't really about them. But you can have your opinion, I'm not going to tell you you're wrong for feeling that way
He’s a perfect actor to match the cartoon, it’s actually amazing
Yeah but nobody has heard about the cartoons so this was really off-putting whenever I watch the show. And I'm supposed to believe he wound up with Catherine Zeta-Jones
I do appreciate how he stayed true to both versions by making him “dashing” in his youth and starting true to his comic as Wednesdays dad.
Edit: when did a throw away comment warrant 1.2k likes?! 🥹
all you can say is the man let himself go. Such is life. Im working on my dad bod too.
@@CupcakeDeity I got a dad bod and I am surprised at how many older women still find me sexy. Younger girls don't, but the older women always give me compliments.
@@CupcakeDeity Morticia clearly takes good care of him.
@@theclaybeartravels3596 older women are wiser with age and more likely to be attracted to actually good qualities instead of just toned twinks.
It was definitely a nod to previous Gomez's and he ended up getting a dad bod like the og Gomez
I think he's handsome. He's also really good in the role.
I freaked out when I first saw him and was so excited that they cast someone that looked closer to the original cartoon!! And he IS attractive. He seems like a sweetheart who would hold you close and make you feel beautiful and loved. And he's DEFINITELY not ugly
Nah he's definitely on the fat and ugly side
All of the actors pulled off their versions well. Each brought their own thing to the table for Gomez. I’m happy that the character Gomez has been lucky enough to be represented so greatly across the years.
No one can compare to Raúl, however, He did a great job in this show.

The fact that Tim Burton stayed true to the original cartoons of the portrayal of Gomez speaks volumes 🤩
John Astin was so good and charming. They created a role model of how to love and be welcoming. Such good qualities.
Lol, but I do really love this guy. He looks like the sort of person who is the most fun and nicest friend on the block.
As soon as I saw him cast as Gomez I was so happy cuz he literally IS Gomez Addams from the original.

I loved his portrayal of Gomez Addams and the way he loves his family so much.

I love that no matter who plays the role of Gomez, he always looks perfect for the role and does it amazingly. I personally love Wednesday’s Gomez
That was the first thing i noticed "hey.. they got Gomez correct! this show could be the real deal", this is how Gomez looks, perfect casting!
Raul was one of the greatest actors ever known. The only reason he did the old Street fighter movie was because he saw his kids playing it and really enjoying it. And knowing he had a terminal illness at the time.
Was really excited to make a dumb fun movie that his kids could watch and laugh at for years to come.
Wow i didn't knew that he is/was ill that's so unfortunate!
I liked him as Gomez but I ve seen he got a lot of hate on social media and series itself got a lot of hate,too many comments like "I liked the series but they could choose someone else to play Gomez, I liked everything but the actor who plays Gomez ,who they choose him" etc ..but if you look at the original he was the best choice plus he is a very underrated actor and has done an amazing job portraying Gomez..sometimes I think people are more for looks and aesthetics instead of talent :(
Sorry I didn't realized how long my response is until I post it :( you don't have to read that :D
@@cristinapirvulescu9912 don't tell me what to do ಠ_ಠ I'll read what I want and you can't stop me.
Also yea Raul Julia, he played Gomez in the 1991 movie. And unfortunately passed in 1994 from stomach cancer. Dude was an absolute legend though. From an up and coming actor to even when he was a Hollywood A Lister. He still appeared in PSAs and student films and stuff all the time for free. Mostly for a love of acting but also to lend some star power to up and coming directors.
He did a huge amount of humanitarian work and was a proud Puerto Rican who pushed for political and societal changes for Latin Americans in every aspect.
He did so much that when he passed, and in accordance with his last will and testament his body was sent back to Puerto Rico for burial.
The Puerto Rican government the gave him a state funeral.
He was an amazing man who's still remembered incredibly fondly there today. Dude was a hero. And he never took himself too seriously.
Like that street fighter movie is pretty terrible. And even sick, tired, and miserable in late stage cancer. You can still see him in big rubber muscles, absolutely hamming the part up. And bringing an amazing energy and fun to the role.
I like luis Guzman as an actor. And he even stated in interviews that he intentionally played his version of Gomez straight and not over the top so as to not take away from Raul's legacy with the character. He even took alot of inspiration from Raul's real life personality, as opposed to emulating his portrayal of the character as a homage.
Raul was a dedicated and loving father and husband, a caring man who'd help anyone, but apparently those who knew him personally, said his family was the single most important thing to the man, and the overriding factor to his every decision.
Frankly I see Luis's portrayal as a well thought out and respectful tribute. And a succession of such an iconic role being filled by Puerto Ricans.
@@cristinapirvulescu9912 ps, now that's a long response. (Don't dismiss, or undercut yourself when you wanna say something. If people don't wanna read it, that's their flaw, not yours)
Luiz Guzman looks like an actual dad.
Luiz is a delight in anything he is in. Seeing him get to play Gomez makes me happy.
Dude Raul is so fine 😭😭
He looks handsome af like he looks amazing as a father
no literally. they need to get tf off him.
I was wondering what in the world happened there with that casting of Gomez but then I looked it up and saw the cartoon and realized immediately why he went that route
The cartoon movie that came out a few years ago did the same thing
Man it's so good to see a Greendale Community College grad make it in the film & tv industry
Sometimes i forgot that in the 1960s version the adams family is the most kind, cheerful, and loving people in the neighbourhood...
They just never realized that their internal tradition is super weird
And the episodes are usually about outsider getting culture shocked
While in so many other version, they just straight up a cold, gloomy, gothic family
So THIS is why I was so confused as to why I found their dynamics so foreign!
Not gonna lie, I enjoy this too in a more "from Wednesday's perspective" but I did like the message of the 60's version where they we're just extremely quirky compared to their neighbours.
He is perfect because just look at a man who gives everything to his family and never gives a single second to himself that's what he looks like
I love how sweet Luis is, he really kept that good part of Gomez
I’m so glad that Luis Guzmán play the part of Gomes. Great work.
I actually don't know most of the cast even Jena herself, i think i haven't seen any of her movies, but recognized him immediately. He's adorable since I first saw him act in Journey 2.

Looks maybe. Personality wise.....not so much.
Not really, if you watched any of the older versions, including the cartoons, he is not at all the way the original character was. He was always portrayed as very charismatic and excitable. You don't have to be traditionally handsome to be charismatic.
@@LA-mz1dd i watched it all. He has no personality, not charismatic at all. 🤷♀️ he's just tame and lame.

Broke the tradition? That is the most handsome man yet.
For GOD so Loved the world that He Gave His One and Only Begotten Son JESUS CHRIST, so that anyone who Believes in Him will not perish but have Eternal Life (John 3:16)
Highkey true not even joking.
Honestly, I wasn’t sure about Luiz as Gomez at first, but he absolutely crushed it.
He’s such an underrated actor.
He really was nicely casted n just felt right for the role. From the start he felt right, just like he should.
handsome and charming are not the same ~
Yeah, I guess if you really squint he's charming
@@magentawool2556 you must be a really shallow person...
@@khlett obviously im kidding, of course he's handsome
@@magentawool2556 so your concept of joke is taking the piss out of someone's appearance or..? Because if that's it, damn.... you're a really shallow *and* mean person
I think it's kinda accurate to the cartoon and he looks alright in every movie/series-
Man literally called him ugly in the most fancy way possible
"Here's me calling an actor ugly and why I can get away with it"
Man I think he handsome 🤣😘 plus all Gomez's share key features with eachother without looking too similar
They’ve literally never described Gomez as handsome, only charming.
Raul will always be how I see Gomez, so iconic
And he knocked it out of the park. A perfect portrayal of the comic book character.
after seeing him in shameless, i think this has finally convinced me to watch wednesday
He actually did a really good job as well.

I liked his attention to detail. It makes for sooo much depth rather than your usual "commercial value" centred type of entertainment. The man is an artist, truly amazing
Raul Julia brought his A game to every role, rest in piece to one of the greats
I haven't seen Wednesday, but this fact makes me very interested.
It was always Gomes' personality that was the attraction,
although Raúl Juliá's appearance also plays a good role. 😅
I absolutely love this casting because he's different. Personally, I think is a very handsome man. He's unconventionally attractive. I really like that they made this call back to the original cartoon. He also brings a different level of warmth and sweetness to Gomez. Truly giving dad energy.
I really LOVE the fact TB did this. The actor was a delight to see. Hopefully he gets a bit more scenes in season 2
I wrote my comment before reading other comments and I’m so happy folks are dragging you and this short.
I too had my second thoughts, but after watching it, luiz guzman is perfect for the role. Plus he was so handsome on the flashback to his younger self
I don't like to call people ugly. However, there is a certain point where which everyone objectively agrees someone is ugly. I think this highlights his talent more. Most actors get by with just their looks. Like look at all the Avengers. They are all universally accepted as attractive, even Mark Ruffolo, in a cute sort of way.
