It's been long-rumored that classic horror actor Cassandra Peterson, best known for the Elvira, Mistress Of The Dark character, was going to be a part of Rob Zombie's The Munsters. Zombie has now taken to Instagram to confirm that Peterson is indeed a part of the show, having been cast as real estate agent Barbara Carr.
"ATTENTION CASTING NEWS! ?Straight from the set of THE MUNSTERS is your first look at Barbara Carr, the #1 real estate agent in all of Mockingbird Heights. Barbara is played by none other the CASSANDRA PETERSON @therealelvira . Yes, the Mistress of the Dark has joined the cast of THE MUNSTERS. ? Stay tuned for more exciting news to come. ?"
Zombie recently revealed that Jeff Daniel Phillips will play Herman Munster, Sheri Moon Zombie will play Lily Munster, Catherine Schell will play Zoya Krupp, and Dan Roebuck will play Grandpa Munster. The Munsters movie is currently being filmed in Budapest and is rated PG (so not a gritty, horrific reboot).
