Rob Zombie has shared a first look at The Munsters reboot cast, spotlighting three of the movie's main characters outside the iconic Mockingbird Lane mansion.
The photo officially confirms three of the new movie's cast members, who were rumoured to be starring in the reboot, with Jeff Daniel Phillips making an appearance as Herman Munster, Sheri Moon Zombie in the role of Lily Munster, and Dan Roebuck taking his seat as Grandpa Munster in front of the family's gothic residence at 1313 Mockingbird Lane.
"Since Halloween is rapidly approaching, I thought it was the perfect time to MEET THE MUNSTERS!" Zombie announced in the caption of the photo, which he posted on Instagram during the spookiest season of the year. "Direct from the set in good old Hungary, I present Herman, Lily and The Count sitting in front of the newly completed 1313 Mockingbird Lane."
The characters appear to be wearing their daytime wardrobes as opposed to their nighttime attire, as the filmmaker previously revealed a look at the sleepwear that will be worn by the matriarch and patriarch of the Munster clan. The sketches showed Lily in a floor-length dress and a tattered black robe, with Herman in a striped sleepshirt and matching nightcap.
Zombie has been sharing photos and updates from the Munsters set for months now, but this is the first time we're seeing some of the reboot's cast members in character. Jorge Garcia, Richard Brake, and Cassandra Peterson are also rumored to be part of the movie's cast, however, their roles haven't been officially announced just yet.
Rumors of The Munsters reboot were floating around for a while before the official announcement arrived in June that Zombie would be making a modern adaptation of the TV classic. He has continued to post behind-the-scenes snaps on his social media account, including some location scouting photos in Hungary's capital of Budapest.
