\u201cMorticia is such an iconic female figure, but I put my own twist on her. I didn\u2019t want to play her as a Halloween-costumed caricature; I wanted to find the root of her, in that she\u2019s a mother-of-two and extremely in love with her husband. We didn\u2019t want to put Morticia in trousers just to contemporize her; we wanted to do the iconic look. So when I first put on the dress, the hair and make-up, I was just so in it that I could have been Morticia at a petrol station!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
