UCP Developing Dark Reboot Of ‘The Munsters’
UCP is developing 1313, a horror series that's a darker reimagining of the 1964 classic sitcom The Munsters
The last time someone tried to dust off The Munsters for the small screen was in 2017 when NBC opted to reboot the comedy with Odd Mom Out creator Jill Kargman and Seth Meyers. The half-hour single-camera version was going to follow members of an offbeat family who are determined to stay true to themselves but struggle to fit in in hipster Brooklyn. It resulted in the big-budget pilot Mockingbird Lane, directed by Bryan Singer and starring Jerry O’Connell as family patriarch Herman Munster, Portia de Rossi as his wife Lily, Eddie Izzard as Grandpa and Charity Wakefield as cousin Marilyn, which aired as a Halloween special in 2012.
