“No, Lestat. Just because you just woke up it does not mean it’s ‘morning’.”
I think I had not drawn Lestat in AGES. With the help of @i-want-my-iwtv I though he should wear some fancy Gucci or Balenciaga, but Gucci’s new collection was more appropriate with my ink colours, so Gucci it is.
My reference was Martin Rolinski (as suggested by both @i-want-my-iwtv and @joffrey-barathe0n ), and damn, if it was real I would totally follow the BratPrince on Snapchat (or even better, Instagram). I think that deserves its own mini-comic!
I’m already seeing people complain about about the 2019 Addams Family movie having ugly designs. Guys you do know that original designs where supposed to be kinda ugly?
The whole point of The Addams Family is they go against societies expectations, they’re not going to care what people say is supposed to be cute or attractive. They’re happy as they are, and they’re considered weird for not caring what people think how they look. THAT WAS THE POINT OF THE COMICS.
Sure they’re even more exaggerated towards looking gruesome now, but I think that’s kind of needed to drive in the point.
I know in the fandom Gomez and Mortica are mostly seen as a hot attractive goth couple nowadays, which is probably why so many people are disappointed. But I for one would really love to see a married couple who don’t live up to the impossible standards of hollywood beauty, be madly in love with each other and aren’t shy about expressing it.
i’m super excited about this and also the voice cast
“It was previously revealed that Oscar Isaac would be filling the role of Gomez Addams, and now he’ll be joined by Charlize Theron as Morticia, Chloe Grace Moretz as Wednesday, Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things) as Pugsley, Nick Kroll as Uncle Fester, Bette Midler as Grandmama, and Allison Janney as the family’s arch nemesis Margaux Needler.”
Yessss, that was Tom Hardy. This should explain why, for a while, I thought he’d be a great choice for playing Lestat.
I see what you mean @gothiccharmschool! He’s great in these gifs, looks perf in period costume. He’s a great actor. Yeah, too old now for Lestat but he could be cast in another VC role… Maybe age him up further, and he can play the Marquis?
