The family pet ‘Thing’ has been part of the Addams Family since Charles Addams’ original body of work. In the 1964 Addams Family television series, Thing appeared as a disembodied forearm, with the creature becoming a disembodied hand in the 1991 movie The Addams Family. Thing’s most recent on-screen appearance took place in the hit Netflix series Wednesday, in which the Addams family pet accompanied the titular character, played by Jenna Ortega, to Nevermore Academy.
In the Netflix hit series Wednesday, Thing’s appearance had been updated, with stitches adding to its macabre look. Played by magician Victor Dorabantu’s hand, the expressive appendage was sent by Gomez (Luis Guzmán) to watch over Wednesday during her time at school and became her trusted and silent sidekick throughout the show.
