The famous Wayans Brothers are reportedly working on a feature film version of the '50s TV series "The Munsters".

Shawn Wayans, who is currently working on the musical spoof "Dance Flick", told MTV News their third draft of "The Munsters" script was almost ready but that the brothers had no plans of starring in the film.

"I'm almost ready. It's almost ready to be shot. We had to finish this movie and now we're going through our third polish on "The Munsters"..." said Shawn Wayans, "If we do anything, maybe we'll do a cameo, but we're not gonna make "The Munsters" black all of a sudden."

"They're gonna be green, white people just like they were in the TV show. Their characters are still who they were in the '50s. It's
just in modern day."

The Wayans, who started working on the project in 2004, chose to bring "The Munsters" to the big screen for the love of the characters.

"We were big fans of "The Munsters". We grew up watching them. We loved the characters. We thought that they would be a very, very funny movie...You know, they did "The Addams Family", which I thought wasn't that funny or well-thought out of a show, but they did it 'cuz they had a catchy theme song and turned it into a movie. I thought "The Munsters" had the real meat and potatoes rich characters."
