\nFX has given a series order to \u201cVery Young Frankenstein.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tThe project was first announced with a pilot order in 2025. Exact plot details are still under wraps, aside from the fact it is inspired by the classic Mel Brooks-Gene Wilder comedy \u201cYoung Frankenstein.\u201d As previously reported, the show stars Zach Galifianakis, Dolly Wells and Spencer House.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cVery Young Frankenstein\u201d hails from writer Stefani Robinson, who also executive produces along with Taika Waititi and Garrett Basch. All three are alums of the hit FX comedy series \u201cWhat We Do in the Shadows.\u201d Waititi also directed the pilot. Brooks, who co-wrote and directed the film, will executive produce, as will Kevin Salter and Michael Gruskoff. Salter is Brooks\u2019 producing partner, while Gruskoff produced the original film. 20th Television is the studio.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c\u2019Very Young Frankenstein\u2019 blends inspiration from the fan-favorite movie with the inventive, irreverent spirit that has defined FX comedies over the years, making this a completely original take on the classic story,\u201d said Nick Grad, President of FX Entertainment. \u201cIn the hands of FX veterans Stefani, Taika and Garrett, alongside the iconic Mel Brooks, we know that fans will have as much fun watching this series as we\u2019re having making it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cYoung Frankenstein\u201d premiered in 1974 to love from both critics and audiences. It is widely cited as one of the funniest American films ever made. Wilder starred as Dr. Frederick Frankenstein (or Fronk-en-steen), the grandson of Victor Frankenstein. When he inherits his grandfather\u2019s estate in Transylvania, Frederick finds himself drawn to continuing his predecessor\u2019s work in reanimating the dead.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe cast also included Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr, Madeline Kahn, Peter Boyle, and Kenneth Mars. Gene Hackman also makes a brief appearance in the film as a blind man who encounters Frankenstein\u2019s monster.<\/p>\n
