Get ready to do the Time Warp. Fox has recently announced an upcoming televised production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The show is slated to air in the fall of this year.

The musical started as a live show in 1973, then was adapted into a film in 1975, which included the talents of Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Richard O’Brien, and Peter Hinwood as part of the cast.

Since then, the show has brought on a new generation of fans. Lets take a look at who will be filling in the shoes of some memorable characters and get us ready to do the Time Warp.
