Charlize Theron Dishes on Playing Morticia in ‘The Addams Family'

Charlize Theron is neither creepy nor kooky... but she gives a pretty good impression of it as Morticia Addams in the forthcoming animated film "The Addams Family."

The Addams clan have long been a facet of pop culture. Originally published as a cartoon in The New Yorker in 1938, the macabre family hit the big time with a  1960's hit TV series that eventually spawned a pair of 1990's films. Now Theron, along with co-stars Oscar Isaac, Finn Wolfhard, Nick Kroll, Chloe Grace Moretz and Snoop Dogg are taking the family for an animated ride. 

Theron and Isaac recently sat down with NBC Digital to talk about whipping up a little Addams mayhem just in time for Halloween.

"The Addams Family" hits theaters on Oct. 10.
