Can you guess who is 90s Hollywood icon is? (Picture: TheImageDirect) She was one of the top actresses in the 90s, known for her long black hair, mystique and eccentric flare.

Now 73 and having taken somewhat of a break from the spotlight in recent years, the star is tipped to make a huge comeback in 2025 after being cast in the lead role in BBC’s Agatha Christie limited series, Towards Zero.

If you guessed the Hollywood icon to be The Addams Family’s Morticia Addams, also known as Anjelica Huston, you’d be right.

The actress was spotted on a rare outing in Los Angeles this week, sporting white pants, a white top and a grey sweatshirt over the top as she shielded her face with dark sunglasses.

Keeping her signature long black hair, Anjelica appeared to be enjoying a quiet neighbourhood stroll ahead of the Christmas holidays.

Despite keeping a low profile – except for an Addams Family reunion in October – since her last role in 2019, when she made a small appearance in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the actress was one of the best of her time, having won multiple prestigious awards.

The actress is perhaps most well known for her role as Morticia (Picture: Orion/Paramount/Kobal/Shutterstock) As well as three British Academy Film Award nominations and six Primetime Emmy Award nominations, Anjelica won best supporting actress in 1986 at the Academy Awards for her breakthrough role in Prizzi’s Honor, and a Golden Globe in 2005 for best supporting actress in a series, miniseries or television film, for her role in Iron Jawed Angels.

Now, she’s getting ready for her grand return in the Agatha Christie series, which began filming in the summer of this year and is anticipated to reach screens in 2025, although no release date has been announced.

Speaking to Royal Television Society, writer Rachel Bennette said: ‘It has been thrilling to bring them all to life in this disturbing tale of truth and lies, love and hate, a story which unfolds amidst the dark, cinematic glamour of the 1930s, yet feels startlingly of our time.’

The three-part series is based on Agatha’s 1944 crime thriller of the same name. Anjelica stars as Lady Tressilian, alongside Matthew Rhys, Oliver Jackson-Cohen and Ella Lily Hyland.

John was the author of many screenplays now considered classics, including The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Jezebel and The Asphalt Jungle.

In addition to screenwriting, he was also a hugely successful director and earned many awards throughout his career.

While Anjelica’s most memorable role is debatably Morticia, she had solidified herself as a top actress in the industry long before she took the role.

In 1991, she made her debut as Morticia which brought her even more success, but according to her 2014 memoir Watch Me, it was well earned as she described filming as ‘long and arduous’.

The commercial success of the film resulted in the 1993 sequel Addams Family Values and multiple spin off’s, most recently Tim Burton’s Netflix series, Wednesday.
