Fox’s Rocky Horror Reboot
The Fox film opens as a movie inside a movie, with an audience reacting to all the Rocky tropes watching the The Rocky Horror Picture Show. This time around the cast includes Victoria Justice, Ryan McCartan, Reeve Carney, Christina Milian, Annaleigh Ashford, Staz Nair, Adam Lambert, and Ben Vereen joining Cox and Curry. Wild cinema wardrobe seems to include metal studded black leather jackets, red corsets and speedos, so we might very well be on the right track for this remake (original Rocky duds have populated many a museum exhibit) become Rock impresario Lou Adler, produce of the original film as well as responsible for bringing the original U.K stage show to L.A., is coproducing this time around, with Kenny Ortega choreographing and directing. The men claim they will be staying true to Richard O’Brien and Jim Sharman’s original songs and script.
