My house is a mixture of mid-century 'Brady Bunch' and the Addams family, so it's not uncommon to find vials of blood in my house.
To go to L.A. and be on the Addams Family set? It was beautiful production design and an illustrious set. I'm focused on never losing that sense of privilege. I'm still like, "I'm super lucky."
Do you know who I would love to play? Morticia Addams - then I could use all that darkness to be funny.
I grew up on Charles Addams' cartoons, particularly 'The Addams Family,' and Uncle Fester was always one of my favorites.
Even before the movie was made, people already thought I was the original Lurch.
In the high level cartoon world, my number one admired hero would be Chas Addams - really a top, top artist that the 'New Yorker' was lucky to find and employ.
Addams Family blew my mind because it was the first time I was in L.A. and Hollywood, and I grew up a huge fan of movies.
I had unusual parents. We'd been to Europe. We'd been in the theater. We were sort of like the Addams Family.
I loved Charles Addams more than anything. Still love him.
Watching monster movies as a kid, liking monsters, building monster models. TV shows like 'The Munsters,' 'Addams Family' and 'Twilight Zone.' It intrigued me. The music came from that.
