Who will be Broadway’s The Addams Family cast?

The Broadway Musical for The Addams Family has its Morticia and Gomez according to the NY Post! They are saying that Bebe Neuwirth has signed on to play Morticia and Nathan Lane is close to signing on to play Gomez. While I think Bebe is perfect for Morticia, Nathan Lane is no Gomez. He is no John Astin, who was the perfect Gomez. He is also no Raul Julia who I am sure is turning over in his grave because of the news. 

If Nathan Lane plays Gomez, I will cross The Addams Family Broadway Musical off my list of must see Broadway show list.

BTW The Addams Family Broadway Musical is based on the book and not the TV show or movie. Even with that fact, Nathan Lane is still no Gomex 

UPDATE: You know who I think would be the perfect Gomez? Craig Bierko! Hopefully Nathan Lane will turn down the role because of the other show he is attached to and the producers will give the role to Craig Bierko!!!
