2017

Barack Obama maybe be officially out of the Oval Office, but he's still in the business of spreading joy in the city he's now called home for almost 10 years . Outfitted in a Santa hat, a leather jacket and a smile, the former Commander-In-Chief paid a surprise visit to a group of middle school students at the Boys and Girls Club in Washington, D.C. A video of the heartwarming moment began circulating on social media shortly afterward and the reaction from the kids is absolutely priceless. The 44th POTUS also took to his personal Twitter account to share a photo from day, complete with a quick message about the importance of giving back during the holiday season. A total of about 50 youngsters were present for the unforgettable visit, during which Obama spoke with them and handed out gifts. The Obamas have been making their rounds throughout communities across the country since leaving the White House and have already begun keeping their promise to help increase opportunities for young people through their foundation.

This week, Oscar Isaac‘s Poe Dameron had a much bigger role in Star Wars: The Last Jedi as he tried to protect the galaxy from the First Order and keep the Resistance intact. But now there’s talk that Isaac may settle down as the head of a creepy and kooky family of misfits: The Addams Family.

A.K.A., the role he was born to play?

According to Tracking Board, Isaac is in negotiations to voice Gomez Addams in the upcoming Addams Family animated movie. Considering that Gomez acts like a debonair Latin lover, Isaac seems like an ideal choice to follow in the footsteps of John Astin’s original portrayal of the character from the first Addams Family TV series. We also think that Isaac would be a worthy successor to the late Raul Julia, who played Gomez in the two theatrically released live-action movies.

Cartoonist Charles Addams created The Addams Family in a popular series of comic strips for The New Yorker that celebrated the Addams’ gleeful embrace of their own eccentricities. However, Gomez didn’t have a name or even a defined persona until Astin was invited to help shape his character on the show. Julia took those elements even further in the films and he made Gomez into a larger than life figure while maintaining his devotion to his wife and children. If Isaac does get the part, we’re very eager to see what he does with it.

Sausage Party co-director Conrad Vernon is helming The Addams Family animated movie, which has a script by Corpse Bride and Monster House screenwriter Pamela Pettle. A release date has not yet been announced.
