Jerry O'Connell Cast As Herman Munster

Jerry O'Connell, from such films as "The Stand" and the TV series "Car Poolers", has been cast as Herman Munster in the reimagined series called "Mockingbird Lane". Deadline says in their article:

O’Connell will play the family patriarch, the handsome and gangly Herman Munster, a great dad and a devoted husband. He is married to Lily, a vampire, with whom he has fathered a 10-year-old boy, Eddie (Mason Cook). Strong but sentimental, Herman works at a funeral home and worries that Eddie’s transformation into a werewolf and burgeoning awareness of his family’s origins will crush the boy’s spirit.
