I love how he talks to Jenna like she’s his actual daughter saying things like “when your mom and I”… So wholesome
Luis Guzman is the best❤
Ahhh that part stood out to me too. It was like remembering a fond personal memory.
True
It’s Hispanic culture. If you can click with someone of Hispanic descent but have a vast age range it’s easy to treat them like family and care for them as if they were. He’s probably put himself as Gomez so intently that he ACTUALLY sees Jenna as his daughter. It can happen
It’s called method acting lol
I don't get why some people don't like this guy; he did a perfect job acting as Gomez.
Because he doesn't look mediterranean.
@@DemanaJaire how stupid
what?? people dont like him??? he is perfect for his role... they are blind..
@@DemanaJaire I don’t think the character is Mediterranean.
I thought he was hilarious in this role! 😂 He did great.
“My little death trap” must be one of my favorite lines from him in the show! 😂
"My little tormenta" is my favorite
@@mrod1075 haha damn 🤣 man I was about to say that 😂 mine too
Mine is " *my little storm cloud* '"
“Wednesday always looks half dead.” 😂😂😂
Same! 🤣 I laugh out loud every time I get to that scene 😂😂
I'll admit I was a bit skeptical over Luis Guzman's casting as Gomez. But after watching the series I think he did very well. He is so right that Gomez's biggest trait is how loving he is, not just with Morticia but his entire family, and Guzman really brings that out in the series. You really buy how much he loves Wednesday and supports her.
Sounds like they had a great time filming the series together and that is always a nice thing to know as a fan. Looking forward to a season 2!
I grew up with Raul Julia being Gomez and Angelica Huston as Morticia. It made me a bit doubtful because Raul Julia brought a lot class and sophistication to the role and Angelica Huston simply nailed Morticia. I think that Luis Guzman brings back the look of the original comic. He’s also funny so it adds to it. Jenna Ortega was perfectly cast as Wednesday. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Christina Ricci as Wednesday but Jenna Ortega makes Wednesday exactly the kind of teenager Wednesday would turn out to be. Irritable, rebellious but shows a very well hidden caring side and loyalty to those she deems worthy.
I love Luis Guzman, but I feel like him and Catherine Zeta Jones were pretty big misses in casting. To be fair to Guzman, following Raul Julia is an impossible task, but they could have found a better fit.
@@jamiemiller6156 - 🤣 why do people liked Luis to "follow" Raúl? Lol. Raul gave it a good damn spin, but technically speaking Luis fits the role better becsuse it follows the comics portrayal. STOP competing two distinctive takes, lol
People didn’t like it because it didn’t look like 90s Gomez. Yet people don’t realize that in the original Addams family cartoon, that’s what Gomez is supposed to look like. Shorter and on the heftier side
I loved Jenna's portrayal of Wednesday, but I'm glad they've given Luis Guzman his moment too, because he was very considerate of how he played Gomez. Raul Julia made him more bold, charismatic, with panache and bravado, while John Astin in the 1960s show made him more like the typical sitcom patriarch that smoked cigars and read the paper while offering good advice and support. To emulate or copy that would have been dated, and he needed to show that Wednesday's start at Nevermore was not her exile or punishment, but their desire to see their daughter succeed. Luiz made him more amorous, but also more of a softie, as he adores his children and obviously this is the first time they'll be separated as a family with Wednesday not under their roof anymore. It shows that Wednesday, despite her cold demeanor and flat affect, was still raised in a loving household by two concerned parents, which made sure that the series still is tethered to the primary concept of the cartoons - that they are a family like any other, just with a very dark and macabre outlook on life. It's also very sweet how supportive he is of Jenna, and keeps saying that she makes him "proud". Also, now I'm hungry for tostadas with guac and refried beans.
Very spot on analysis of all the Gomez iterations and Luis's take on the character. In the prison scene, there were subtle hints of Gomez's dark side underneath that warm exterior, which reminded me a bit of 'Kingpin' (from Daredevil). Luis absolutely nailed the acting here!
@@matimus9533 is the dark side based on him lying and not being completely honest about Morticia killing Garett?
I would not say the 1960’s iteration of Gomez was a typical patriarch lmao
omfg his character is one i wish had more screen time. i mean, he had enough considering it was Wednesday's show.. but i really enjoyed all his scenes. he waas just such a cool member of a dark family since he showed a lot of love too and was really funny. a show called Gomez would be dope actually
I didn't really care for his portrayal of Gomez. I'll admit that my view of the character was influenced by both Aston and Julia, but his version of the character didn't really appeal to me. Both Aston and Julia played the character as confident, mostly easy going, and fun loving. The kind of person you'd like to be friends with because you know he'd be fun to be around. Guzman's Gomez seemed insecure and like he was playing second fiddle to his wife. He's supposed to be the head of a rich, successful family, and I just didn't get that from him.
As a Pacific Islander, Luis’s portrayal of Gomez was a warm reminder of how most of our fathers were. Full of love and support.
@Nia New Zealand Maori here, 100% this. Also his comment about the family talking sh!t to each other and if anyone else starts up 'What did you say' (with a pukana too hahaha). But yeah family and food ❤

I love Luis Guzman as an actor. He and Danny Trejo would always play bad guys and minions. Then they started getting funny one liners in newer movies and that's such a crack up, breaking out of that bad guy stereotype. I'm glad he gets a leading actor role in this show. More power to him and Jenna!
I love Danny Trejo - I read how he turned his life around :) I felt sorry for him in Breaking Bad though when the Cartel put his head on the Tortoise lol I think he had a minor role in Harold and Kumar 3 you know?
Proud to see more families that look and eat like mine online and in media. So proud to have Jenna represent us latinas. This was so wholesome. Thank you @netflix!!

This is beautiful! I hope that Jenna becomes the Latina role model she didn’t have growing up, to those little Latinas watching her now. It saddens me that she didn’t see herself represented on tv growing up, and she is only talking about the early 2000s 😢. I get how she feels. And Luis was absolutely perfect and totally deserves this recognition! “Felicidades a los dos! Esos tacos se ven ricos y esas chuletas, yum!” 💃🏻💃🏻🥰

I really appreciate the way they represent them as latinos in the show. They make clear allusions to it without making it their defining characteristic. They allow them to be multidimensional without generalizing or stereotyping them. And the press junket hasn’t been only about them representing latinos on screen but has been more focused on their process as actors. I appreciate this type of representation of my people so much ❤️🇲🇽

Pachanga!!!
I lost my dad at a young age and watching Gomez being such a loving, devoted father healed the inner child in me who wished her dad could’ve walked her into school :,,) the casting in this show was top notch all throughout 😤
Como mexicana me atrevo a decir que Luis hizo un trabajo fenomenal representando a un padre latino, se siente muy familiar su aspecto y también su forma de tratar a Merlina, muy buen trabajo de parte de ambos actores

As a Latina who was born in the US, I related so much to her stories especially the one about Cinderella. The only star I had growing up to look up to was Selena Gomez who I love. So happy to see more of our community being represented especially in such iconic roles 🖤
Edit: Wanted to add a note since comments have been insane- some of you are very thorough in this argument. I obviously know there’s other Latinos/ Hispanics in Hollywood, my point was that in MY pov growing up (I’m in my mid 20s) we didn’t have actresses or princesses playing roles I could look up to. They all either did not look or have any connection to me culturally. Many actors mentioned are true and their work was great but it was never as a main role/ iconic of a role as Jenna has played in my perspective. I obviously know she’s a “light” Latina (again, for arguments sake) but the fact that her work has put in her in such high regard while she does not ignore her roots will do wonders for little girls now.
Also, please don’t argue about language either- that’s a part of culture (and of colonialism) not a defining factor of which race/ethnicity you are from. And saying that anyone who was born in America is “less than” others of their country who weren’t is disrespectful to their parents, grandparents, etc. who had to move to this country for one reason or another. Let’s all be kind and respect that everyone lives their life differently with differing degrees of connection to their roots 🤍
I find it disgraceful she doesnt even speak Spanish. Such a shame...
Latina postiza 🤷🏻♀️
Same I’m happy seeing our people get these incredible roles!
@@greyLeicester that is unfortunate, great thing is, if she’s passionate enough; she can learn

I love Guzman, this guy is awesome, reminds you to your father and uncles, he made Gomez a truly Latino guy and he is a great actor. I just loved him and I want to see more of his work now.
And well, we all love Jenna, she has been consistently amazing lately.

@@nukiesduke6868 i agree
I really miss seeing Raul Julia. He was the Gomez Adams I grew up with, but whatever part he played, he seemed to give 110%. He really brought those stories to life for me. Having said that, I think the casting for "Wednesday" was perfect and the show was, obviously, fantastically done. Congrats to all involved. I hope Netflix takes the mountains of positive praise the show has received as a sign to do more seasons. I'd love to see a lot more of these kinds of stories.
Yes of course he was he was my most favorite Gomez but Luis did a BEAUTIFUL job playing Gomez as well
I never get tired of the Addams Family. One of my favorite characters was Wednesday and now seeing she's Latina in the series is even cooler. I also want to say Raul Julia (may he RIP 🙏) and Guzman both did a fantastic job as Gomez.
Much love to Ortega and Guzmán from this Mexican 🇲🇽

"my little scorpion"
Dad's will do that because they know how tough raising girls is. They play off their attitude
Jenna Ortega seemed destined to be Wednesday, but Luis is certainly my other favorite casting in this series. He and Gomez both radiate such an uncomplicated love for life, and I think they're a perfect fit for each other as character and actor.
Also snacking on pico de gallo as I start my second watch, how fitting.
I like the direction Wednesday the character is going when it comes to her emotions. She is still that cold and calculated being on the surface, but she is growing and expanding her emotional repertoire. Becoming a character that doesn't openly wear their feelings on their sleeve, but deep down it is clear that they do care in their own way. I like character development like that - like she is capable of growing into a fantastic villain... or an interesting detective that uses questionable methods to solve crimes, and I'm here for it.
I absolutely love watching Jenna play Wednesday. I grew up with few role models in my life and am really proud of Jenna, a Latina woman, take ownership of her character and bring new life in the new series of the Addams Family. Parvo Jenna.
As a Puerto Rican I find this video extremely beautiful to see not to mention that Luis Guzman being Gomez Adams is just as much as a blessing and seeing Raul Julia and all the great memories that Raul Julia gave me during his time.
As for Jenna Ortega I am really happy to know that she is both Mexican and Puerto Rican so it's one of these moments that I'm proud of being part of the Latino community.
Me encanto este video mucho y mucho amor a los dos.

If were going to be included than such inclusion should be respectful of our own identity, way of being, talking acting, cultural expressions etc. Inclusion that comes with a hidden agenda of assimilating our people is RACIST AND ANTI-MEXICAN!
Africans are protected by law if they are ill-portrayed and they are given total freedom when it comes to controling their roles and scripts. On the other hand mexicans are systematically being dehumanized, discriminated and excluded.
If this inclusion comes with the racist intention of erasing our own identity as a people than to hell with your racist inclusion! Assimilation and erasure of our identity and culture is a colonial racist attack against the mexican and "latino" community!
Yes this year was great for Mexican and Latino representation, Oscar Isaac in Moonknight, Diego Luna in Andor , Gael Garcia in Werewolf by night, Tenoch Huerta in Black Panther Wakanda Forever and now Jenna Ortega and Luis Guzman in Wednesday! 💪🏾🇲🇽🔥🇵🇷🇨🇺🇬🇹!!
Luis and Jenna are my favorite Gomez and Wednesday ever (and I love all iterations of the Addams family). They’re both such tremendous actors and really brought something special to their roles. Seeing them sit down and talk like this while sharing special dishes with each other is soooo cool; the way he says “I’m proud to hear you say that” and when she said “shooting with you” was her favorite.. you can really feel the mutual care and respect they have for one another. So wholesome and amazing. I love them both! 🥹❤️
I love their interactions with each other. I loved this series I hope there will be a second season.
As a lil mixed Mexican and black girl who grew up on Jenna everything she does makes me proud to be Latina and she really was such a big inspiration for me.

The dia de los muertos joke about there everlasting ofrenda had me laughing silly for a bit. 😂😂

I see that you're not proud of your black side. But why are you proud being a Latina because of someone who you don't know accomplishments? You should be proud being a Latina based on your family accomplishments.
I honestly LOVE the show! I thought both Luis Guzman and Jenna Ortega did PHENOMENALLY in portraying Gomez and Wednesday. Its so cool to see more Latinos being cast as the main leads in movies especially for iconic characters like the Addams Family. We need that representation in movies, to show to present and future Latinos that we are here, we are being represented, and that we are known. Love the show so much and I am HOPING for a 2nd season.😊
Love this duo ❤ real family dynamic achieved in the series.

So happy to see Luis in a role like this, always hypes me up to see him on the screen. Jenna is definitely a star we get to see grow up in Hollywood now! I hope she stays levelheaded and manages to avoid all the oddballs in there.
I love how Luis played Gomez, it brought something new and a warmer touch to his character which we haven't seen before. And of course Jenna is stunning as Wednesday.
He talks like Mike Tyson
It’s really nice to see this side of Luis Guzman cuz, up till this point, I think I’ve only seen him play the roles of gansters. He’s wonderful as Gomez Addams, and he works well playing opposite of Catherine Zeta-Jones. And, on that note, Zeta-Jones is my favourite ‘Morticia Addams.’ Hands down. She surprised me by the amount of complexity, and immense sensitivity, that she brought to the screen in the role as the mother of Pugsley & Wednesday, and as a wife to Guzman’s representation of Gomez. Tim Burton never ceases to amaze me with his impeccable choices for casting. 📽️🎞️🎭✨
Guzman has been an underrated actor for more than 30 years.
He talks like Mike Tyson.
@@anthonycampos8057 He's on Netflix and you're not.
@@anthonycampos8057 do you comment that on every comment about him?
This man was in Boogie Nights and then Out of Sight just a few months later. Been a fan ever since.
@@raven3moon ok.
I know this show is not Puerto Rican but I trully admire that they put a little spark in the show and Im proud of being a fully Boricua🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
I love this, and I love the show! I grew up watching the original Addams Family in reruns on TV. You are all crushing it! ❤️
This totally reminds me of me and my dad. I’m a dark haired, pale Mexican. My dad is a very very tan-brown. It’s cool to see families like this in film and show
That's me and my mom. I am pale with dark brown hair and my mom is a pretty tan brown with dark brown hair. ☺️

@@johnnylopez5231 “Hispanic” is a misnomer used in America specifically North America. Real Hispanics are Spaniards. 🙄THE CULTURA LATINA, THE LATIN PEOPLE, THE LATINO (Latini) TRIBES, THE LATIN ETHNICITY ALL COME FROM ITALY! LATINO IS THE SOLE IDENTITY OF SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATIN MEDITERRANEAN DIASPORA AND WE HAVE TYPICAL BROWN MEDITERRANEAN FEATURES WITH TYPICAL OLIVE MEDITERRANEAN SKIN TONES WHICH BROWNS VERY EASILY. THIS JUST REPRESENTS THE TYPICAL BRAINWASHED AMERICAN OBSESSION WITH MISAPPROPRIATION, MUTILATION AND CULTURAL RAPE OF LATIN EUROPEAN TERMS WHICH COME FROM THE REAL LATINO MEDITERRANEAN ANCESTORS OF ITALY! Latin europe was Latinized by ROME ITALY hence how Latina italy got the name Latina. & HISPANIC (Hispania) is literally the Latin language MEANING SPAIN NOT the NATIVE AMERICANS they Colonized. Latin America got its name SOLELY and ONLY to mean the part of the Americas CONQUERED by LATIN EUROPE and that is all it will EVER MEAN. Latin ORIGIN, HISTORY& people are NON INTERCHANGEABLE. STOP THE CULTURAL THEFT OF MY PEOPLE& OUR ANCESTRY. BRAINWASHED AMERICAN/ MOSTLY NORTH AMERICAN CULTURAL APPROPRIATION & CULTURAL THEFT FOR "PROFIT AND GAIN" WILL NEVER BE LATINO. CULTURAL APPROPRIATION EXIST BECAUSE THOSE LIKE YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE AND WILL CONTINUE TO BENEFIT FROM THE CULTURAL THEFT TOWARDS US TRUE LATIN PEOPLE AND OUR HISTORICAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS! AND US TRUE LATINS ARE & HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MULTI GENETICALLY MIXED ETHNIC PEOPLE DUE TO OUR GENETIC CONTRIBUTORS FROM OUR MIDDLE EASTERN (ASIAN), NORTHERN AFRICAN, AND BALKAN GYPSIE DNA. THERE ARE NO "WHITE" LATINS. JUST MORE ASSIMILATION . SOUTH CENTRAL AMERICANS AND MEXICANS ARE NATIVE AMERICANS, MESTIZOS, CASTIZOS, PARDOS, ZAMBOS, AND PURE SUB SAHARAN AFRICANS. NOT LATINS, NOT LATIN BLOOD, THEREFORE NOT LATINO. IN SOUTH CENTRAL AMERICA AND MÉXICO THE ONLY PEOPLE CALLED LATINO AND HISPANIC ARE US SOUTHERN EUROPEANS OF LATIN MEDITERRANEAN ORIGIN. OBVIOUSLY THE SAME IN LATIN EUROPE. PUSHING AND CONTRIBUTING TO BRAINWASHED NORTH AMERICAN MISAPPROPRIATION OF FOREIGN TERMS SUCH AS LATIN/LATINO AS TRENDING PROPAGANDA FOR SOCIAL STATUS TO APPEAR MORE DESIRABLE DOES NOT JUSTIFY THE CONTINUING CONTRIBUTIONS OF CULTURAL THEFT. THE TERM LATINO DERIVES FROM THE TERM LATINI, THE LATINI WHERE THE VERY FIRST LATIN TRIBE TO EXIST FROM ITALY! LATINI IS PLURAL MEANING MORE THAN ONE LATINO! AND LATINO IS SINGULAR FOR LATINI MEANING ONE LATINO. THE SAME WITH LATINA AND LATINE. ALL TERMS CREATED BY THE TRUE LATIN PEOPLE OF ITALY. PUSHING BRAINWASHED AMERICAN MOSTLY NORTH AMERICAN CULTURAL RAPE AS A FASHION TREND FOR “PROFIT & GAIN” NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED. YOU CAN NOT BE PART OF AN ORIGIN, HISTORY AND ETHNICITY WHICH YOUR ANCESTORS FACTUALLY ARE NOT HISTORICALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR
I’m a proud Half Mexican Half Puerto Rican myself aswell, makes me happy to see the representation let alone seeing so many love it 💯❤️
You are a rare breed
@@carloszuniga7064 eh not really… I guess it’s all subjective to where you live though. I know in Chicago there is many half Mexicans half Puerto Ricans. Aswell with black and polish. (In the south side of Chicago it’s all black, Mexican, Puerto Rican and polish people)
@@kathartictendencies5877 Chicago huh. That's cool. Yeah I've lived on the west coast all my life. Not no many boricuas over here.
@@carloszuniga7064 there are plenty of boricua Mexican mixes. Its quite common on the east coast like Massachusetts
@@devilinthedarkness4830 Maybe in the last decade. Mexicans were rare in the east coast as Puerto Ricans on the west coast.
this is so wholesome. i've been putting off watching this show for a while but this made me wanna go home and watch it all tonight. their chemistry is incredible.
Jenna Ortega has a bright future ahead of her. I am excited to see her growth as an actress.
Luis Guzman is such a fabulous actor, I can't think of a single role he has done that I didn't enjoy, he really makes scenes he is in fun to watch. And Jenna Ortega! I had no idea who she was before the show, but she is just fantastic!
He’s always superb in anything. What a talented man!
No. He sucks
Normal fans know him from narcos
He has a great cameo in Bruno Mars’ Gorilla vid
He kills all his roles. I still remember him in The Conte of Monte Cristo

I loved the show ❤ great cast and I was so entertained!
I love how Germ (her stuffed animal thing on the table) is always there after she filmed Wednesday. It gives me Thing vibes😊
Oh yes germ is a good sidekick too😊 "you do what the man says"
As a Puerto Rican I was excited to see Luis playing Gomez and to have Jenna play Wednesday. So thankful to have Boricuas on screen.
As a 20 year old Puerto Rican Mexican I am so proud and happy for her❤️
✊ keep repping
I'm half rican and mexicana super proud of her
Mexiricans unite!
Actually she's not half but 25% she grow up with her Puerto Rican grandpa and her mexican grandma from mom side. Since her mexican dad was not in touch with his mexican family she only met her maternal family . Actually the half is her mom
Best of both worlds!
Told my husband that he is the perfect Gomez.. I just love how he owns that character and look how humble he is and sweet and still talking to Jenna like his own daughter. That ‘your Mom and I’ was the sweetest thing!💕
Gomez is actually a white character being brown washed
Awe that was so cute ❤❤❤ what a great cast and Jenna is just amazing!!!

Well the character herself isn’t.
Jenna is not latina 👀
@@chrryp She’s half mexican half puerto rican…she is a Latina.
@@ACoolMom no cause she doesnt have the mexican/puerto rican nationality. She's born and live in U.S.... she's 100% american.
@@chrryp yeah she’s american by nationality but that’s not what we mean. Are you Latina? Cause when you are of Latin decent whether you’re born in the US or not, here you’re considered a Latina. It’s odd to explain but no one goes by the “textbook definition” or “you have to be born in Latin America” rules…
I love how he loves playing Wednesday’s dad. He’s perfect for the role. I can’t wait to see more of him. I want to see a darker side of him, almost a mafia type , secretive, shady , conspicuous but a loving father and husband at home.
I agree too. Also, his weight in real life makes him more comically accurate as the unsettling and spooky troll that you would never imagine seeing marry someone as beautiful as Morticia, let alone her being infatuated with someone like him. Their romance feels more genuine when two people love each other despite their appearance.
@@theclaybeartravels3596 Youre explaining her side, but not his..
@@benevolence2926 how so?
@@benevolence2926 so you often make statements without any supporting information to back it up? You must be a ten year old. Another reason why parents shouldn't let their children on the internet until the age of 18.

For all those who don’t understand the casting of Luiz, first of all, the ORIGINAL comic of the Addams Family portrayed Gomez as a short, plump Latino man.. and Tim Burton based his characters for this series on the original comic. The ones he used to read as a kid, and partly on the original black and white TV series. The reason we aren’t used to seeing somebody like him playing Gomez is because Gomez has always been portrayed as a tall, fit and darker figure, Raul Julia did a fantastic job in the 90’s films, but that was his own adaptation, not based off the original character, the very first Gomez ever written, Luiz’s Gomez is based off that one. I personally think he did a great job. Quit hating on him.
Oh that’s right I forgot about the that. It makes more sense.
Gomez was NEVER Latino. He was Hispanic (Spaniard), but never Latino until now.
@@bladerunner556 Oh ok, well my ignorant ass didn’t know that. I had only read Latino when I saw it. I apologise. Shows what I know, I guess. 🤷🏼♀️
I loved this show.. the actors did a terrific job .. they described their roles to a tee .. I love the dark ghoulish aspect but at the heart of it they love each other dearly .. big fan of “Thing” and I’m a huge Tim Burton fan too!
I have watched ALL of WEDNESDAY on NEFLIX. LOVE IT! Love how well they hang out together off screen to do this special segment together.
He told Jenna to "stay humble" This is why Guzman continues to get great roles. He's a fantastic actor and on top of that a complete professional that is not full of himself, something directors and writers cherish.
As a child I always thought Gomez Adams was Spanish. With his Spanish first name, and his very Latin lover demeanor, there was no doubt in my mind. I always found the franchise to be pretty kool because of this.
Me too. He moved like a Spanish bullfighter.
That’s because Gomez was Spanish, except in this version they have made him Mexican.
Guzman is Puerto Rican, just like Raul Julia.
Spanish are not latins, and Gomez is also latin and so Raúl Julia in real life and his potrayal of the character
Same. I wasn’t sure if he was Spanish, but he was some kind of Latin man. Especially since he’d always speak French (a Latin language) to Morticia.
Thank God my 6 year old latinx daughter has someone to look up to that looks like her. Elena of Avalor
The groundbreaking role of Elena of Avalor, voiced by Aimee Carrero, inspired a generation of Latinx kids to not only see someone that looked like them but shared the traditions, language, and music influenced by the Hispanic culture. As of July 22, 2016 Elena of Avalor is an American computer-animated adventure television series that premiered on Disney Channel on July 22, 2016, and moved to Disney Junior on July 14, 2018. The series features Aimee Carrero as the voice of Elena, a Latinx princess.
Amazing talents! Both of them! Much deserved success!
