    Jerry O'Connell has been cast as Herman Munster in NBC's Munsters reboot, Mockingbird Lane, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

    The actor will play the patriarch of the family, who in the 1960s CBS comedy was played by Fred Gwynne.
    In the reboot, Herman -- like in the original series -- has a permanent home under Grandpa Munster's thumb. O'Connell joins the previously cast Eddie Izzard, who will play the powerful and quick-witted vampire in a role that was originated by Al Lewis.
    Mason Cook will play Herman and Lily's werewolf son, Eddie. Bryan Singer will executive produce and direct the pilot.
    NBC initially eyed the reboot, from Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller, for this development season but pushed the project to summer.
    Fuller and NBC first made an attempt to revive the sitcom last year, with the network ultimately passing. His newer version is said to be an edgier and slightly darker take exploring origins of Herman and Lily Munster (originally played by Gwynne and Yvonne De Carlo) and how they arrived at the famed 1313 Mockingbird Lane address.

    Cheyenne Jackson has signed on as a guest star on NBC's upcoming Munsters remake Mockingbird Lane.
    The reboot of the classic 1960s comedy about a family of monsters will star Jerry O'Connell as father Herman Munster, Portia de Rossi as his wife Lily Munster, and comedian Eddie Izzard as Grandpa.
    O'Connell has described the project as     a darker and more dramatic take on the comedy format of the original sitcom.
    According to Deadline, Jackson will play Scout Master Steve, a widower who falls in love with Lily Munster.

    Beth Grant has been cast in The Munsters reboot Mockingbird Lane.
    The actress will join the NBC series as a character named Maryanne, a wheelchair-bound nosy neighbour who becomes suspicious of the Munsters, according to TVLine.
