Catherine Zeta-Jones Wants Danny DeVito to Play Cousin It on Wednesday

Catherine Zeta-Jones, who plays Morticia Addams in the Netflix series 'Wednesday,' has expressed her desire to see Danny DeVito join the cast as Cousin Itt. Zeta-Jones mentioned her long-standing friendship with DeVito through her husband, Michael Douglas, noting that the two actors were roommates decades ago. She feels DeVito's comedic talent would be perfect for the role of the hairy Addams Family member.

Zeta-Jones shared her thoughts during a 'Wednesday' FYC event, reminiscing about a recent birthday celebration with DeVito where she wondered why he wasn't already part of the show. She playfully acknowledged that DeVito might not appreciate the suggestion, given the extensive hair and makeup required for the character.

The casting of 'Wednesday' has generally been well-received, with Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams and Gwendoline Christie among the standout performers. The potential addition of Danny DeVito would undoubtedly generate buzz and excitement for Season 3, though some argue his face wouldn't be visible under all that hair, potentially negating the casting of such a famous actor.

Beyond casting suggestions, Zeta-Jones also expressed her hopes for Season 3, including exploring Morticia's relationship with her mother, played by Joanna Lumley, and wanting Wednesday to stop demonizing her mother so much.
