Eddie Izzard in talks for Munsters reboot

Eddie Izzard is in talks to appear in NBC’s reboot of the 1960s sitcom The Munsters.

The pilot is being helmed by Bryan Singer who is “re-imaging” the fondly remembered comedy series as a drama renamed Mockingbird Lane – after the road where the Munster family lives. According to various reports Eddie Izzard is in talks, final talks, to join the pilot as Grandpa. It was recently revealed that the pilot had been pushed back to the Summer by NBC in order to allow Singer to smooth out the final details of the project.
