Rob Zombie’s The Munsters Will Face Tim Burton’s Wednesday On Netflix This Fall

When first announced by NBC, it was believed that Rob Zombie’s reboot of the comedy horror series The Munsters would be broadcast via their Peacock streaming service. But now it looks like the movie is going to Netflix – and there’s fierce competition.
As Zombie pointed out on his Instagram, The Munsters will air alongside Tim Burton’s live-action Addams Family series Wednesday. Rob is thrilled with the so-called Clash of the Titans:
“This fall we’re going to be spooking like it’s 1964! 🎥Yep, THE MUNSTERS and THE ADDAMS FAMILY are back on the boob tube at the same time thanks to @netflix ☠️ It’s been 58 years since this clash of titans happened for the first time. 🎃 Perfect entertainment for your pumpkin carving party. 👻 🔥 Check out this fall preview issue of TV Guide for season 64-65 that I found while cleaning up. 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃 Wacky monster fans unite!☠️☠️☠️☠️ #themunsters #theaddamsfamily #robzombie #timburton
This will be interesting, because these two properties take very different approaches. Zombies munsters remake is a live-action cartoon and is a super blunderer. Meanwhile, Wednesday goes ultra-goth, and will undoubtedly have a bigger budget as Tim Burton is a more reliable and respected comeback than Rob Zombie. So basically you’re going to have psychobilly-leaning metal kids on one side and Halloween goth teenagers on the other.
