Watch the first teaser for Fox's Rocky Horror Picture Show remake
The Rocky Horror Picture Show TV remake is really happening, and there's nothing we can do now except settle in and wait for things to unfold. Today Fox shared the first teaser for the movie, and it looks oookay! Laverne Cox (Orange is the New Black) will play Frank N. Furter, Reeve Carney (who was in the Spider-Man musical on Broadway) will play Riff Raff, Christina Milian will play Magenta, and Adam Lambert will take on Meatloaf's role as Eddie.
The teaser doesn't give away much, but you probably already know the story: A thunderstorm, a broken-down car, a scary mansion, weird dances, and a glittery mad scientist. The remake is set to premiere this year on Halloween.
