Rob Zombie has again taken to social media to show off a new look at The Munsters, this time giving us our first look at Jeremy Wheeler as Mr. Gateman, Herman’s boss.
Zombie describes the character as “Herman’s boss at the one and only GATEMAN, GOODBURY and GRAVES FUNERAL PARLOR
the finest funeral home in all of Mockingbird Heights. Don’t let that winning smile fool you…he’s a grim man for a grim job.”
Jeff Daniel Phillips is playing Herman Munster and Sheri Moon Zombie is playing Lily Munster in Zombie’s movie, with Daniel Roebuck co-starring as Grandpa Munster.
Richard Brake (31, 3 from Hell) is playing Dr. Henry Augustus Wolfgang. Catherine Schell (“Space: 1999,” The Return of the Pink Panther) is playing “Zoya Krupp the gypsy queen.”
Dee Wallace, Cassandra “Elvira” Peterson and Jorge Garcia will also star.
Zombie is directing the film for Universal Home Entertainment, and it’s possible that The Munsters may end up being a Peacock exclusive. That last bit has not been confirmed.

If you want to revisit the original series, “The Munsters” is streaming on Peacock. That series ran for just two seasons between 1964 and 1966, spawning several feature films and a sequel television series titled “The Munsters Today” (1988 – 1991). Most recently, Bryan Fuller’s “Mockingbird Lane” reimagined the series for NBC, but never made it past a pilot episode.
