'Rocky Horror Picture Show' TV Special Is Coming to Fox... Maybe
Are you ready to do the time warp again? Fox is reviving "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" in what's being called a "two-hour event" TV special in honor of the cult classic's 40th anniversary. But can anything ever be more "special" than the 1975 film?
Kenny Ortega, who is probably best known for the "High School Musical" movies, will direct and choreograph the remake. Variety said the special is in the early stages of development and is cast-contingent. They'll never find anyone who can really fill the shoes of Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, and Barry Bostwick, but people are always doing their own versions of "Rocky Horror" -- from "Glee" to local productions everywhere -- so we can just consider this another one.
Do you have casting suggestions for Brad, Janet, Dr. Frank-N-Furter and company or do you hope they never find the right actors because they should leave this classic alone?
