The Munsters: Daniel Roebuck is measured for Grandpa’s coffin in behind-the-scenes image

Writer/director Rob Zombie has once again taken to social media to give us a look behind-the-scenes as his latest film The Munsters makes it way through production. Today’s update was relatively minor, but fun to see nonetheless, giving us a look at actor Daniel Roebuck as he’s measured for the coffin he’ll be taking naps in as this film’s version of The Count, a.k.a. Grandpa.

We shared an interesting interview with Roebuck on The Munsters a couple weeks ago, and you can read quotes from that interview at THIS LINK.

Rob Zombie’s The Munsters is based on the classic sitcom of the same title, which ran for two seasons, from September 1964 to May 1966, and consisted of 70 episodes. (You can buy the complete series at THIS LINK.) The show

starred Fred Gwynne as Frankenstein’s monster and head-of-the-household Herman Munster; Yvonne De Carlo as his wife Lily Munster; Al Lewis as Lily’s father, Grandpa, the somewhat over-the-hill vampire Count Dracula who longs for the “good old days” in Transylvania; Beverley Owen (later replaced by Pat Priest) as their teenage niece Marilyn Munster, who was attractive by conventional standards but the “ugly duckling” of the family; and Butch Patrick as their werewolfish son Eddie Munster.

Zombie has also shared a picture of his director’s chair, the blueprint for an exact replica of the Munsters’ house, given us a look at costume designs for Herman and Lily Munster’s sleepwear, confirmed that horror host character Zombo will be in the movie, posted a picture of the wig Roebuck will be wearing, given an early look at the crafting of Herman’s head, shown off some of the wardrobe, shared pictures of some creature effects, showed the houses being built on Mockingbird Lane, updated on the construction of the Munsters Mansion, teased that Herman will be wearing the leather jacket he wears when racing in the Dragula roadster, given us a glimpse of Richard Brake as mad scientist Dr. Henry Augustus Wolfgang, and more.

Roebuck and Brake are joined in the cast by Jeff Daniel Phillips as Herman Munster and Sheri Moon Zombie as Lily Munster. Cassandra “Elvira” Peterson, Jorge Garcia, and Sylvester McCoy are rumored to be in the film as well.
