Under the direction of Marcus H. Rosenmüller, a first season containing 13 episodes was created which was filmed in Munich and the surrounding area[1] in the summer of 2022 and was released on RTL+ on December 11, 2023.
Florian Brückner plays carpenter Florian Eder, the nephew of master carpenter Franz Eder, played by Gustl Bayrhammer, who takes over his uncle's abandoned carpentry shop 30 years after his uncle's death and meets the Leprechaun Pumuckl there.
Using artificial intelligence, Schafroth's sound recordings are converted into the voice of the original speaker Hans Clarin, who died in 2005.
[7] According to screenwriter Korbinian Dufter (MUH - Bayerische Aspekte, Winter 2022/23), the "core of Pumuckl" should be preserved, which is why the depiction of modern technology, such as cell phones or drones, should be largely dispensed with in a Munich "that has changed a bit after all".
However, the actual building in the backyard of Widenmayerstraße 2 in Munich was demolished after the filming of the second season of Meister Eder und sein Pumuckl in 1985.
Markus Krojer (as Olaf Bahnmüller), Johann Schuler, Ina Meling (as Bärbel Eder), Hanna Plaß (as Steffi Bahnmüller), Anja Knauer, Simon Pearce, Martin Weinek, Michael Ostrowski, Franz-Xaver Zeller and Arnd Schimkat (as Mr. Wümmerlein) are known as guests.
