It's been a couple weeks since we last posted an update on Rob Zombie's new film project The Munsters, which is based on the classic 1960s sitcom (buy it HERE), so it's about time we took another look at his social media to see what sort of behind-the-scenes information he has shared recently. Embedded below you'll find new looks at some of the film's wardrobe pieces, prosthetics that are almost ready to be placed on the head of the actor who'll be playing Herman Munster, some more wardrobe design art showing Herman and his wife Lily, and the spot of land in Hungary where a recreation of the Munsters' home neighborhood Mockingbird Lane is being constructed.
Zombie has previously shown 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 the actor who plays Grandpa will be wearing, given an early look at the crafting of Herman's head, and more.
The original iteration of The Munsters ran for two seasons, from September 1964 to May 1966, and consisted of 70 episodes. The series
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.
The cast for Zombie's film has not been confirmed, but the rumor is that Jeff Daniel Phillips and Sheri Moon Zombie will be playing Herman and Lily Munster, and they'll be joined in the cast by Daniel Roebuck, Jorge Garcia, Richard Brake, Cassandra "Elvira" Peterson, and Sylvester McCoy.
