Considering the cult following that the 1975 Rocky Horror Picture Show accumulated, there are going to be plenty of cynics awaiting the FOX reboot.
The first snippet is here as Laverne Cox takes center stage as the twisted scientist Dr. Frank-n-Furter.
The Orange is the New Black star is filling in the shoes of the iconic Tim Curry who will also appear in the reboot, this time as the Criminologist. In this short teaser we get Cox exudes the flamboyance of the original but she's perhaps not as shocking as Curry's 1975 extravaganza. Also on the cast are Disney and Nickelodeon protégés Ryan McCartan and Victoria Justice as the stranded sweetheart couple who stumble upon the Annual Transylvanian Convention. Christiana Milan, Adam Lambert and Reeve Carney beef up this electric line-up.
The cult following will be able to cast its opinion when The Rocky Horror Picture Show unveils on FOX this Halloween.
