I'm deeply skeptical about this project and will be greatly surprised if this ends up straying far enough away from Zombie's legacy of work to actually capture the spirit that this license deserves.
While researching this, I discovered that Burton has been granted access to The Addams Family license in order to produce a Netflix original series called "Wednesday". The show will primarily focus on Wednesday Addams as she comes of age while attending Nevermore Academy, masters her psychic abilities, solves murder mysteries and balances her "tangled" relationships. It's also rumored that Burton has been petitioning Netflix for permission to cast Depp as Gomez, which Netflix (so far) is refusing to grant. I'm even much more skeptical about this project than I am Zombie's.
