Tim Curry will jump to the left one more time in the Fox revival of “Rocky Horror Picture Show,” Fox Television Group chairmen and CEOs Gary Newman and Dana Walden announced Friday at a TCA panel.
Curry, the original Dr. Frank-N-Furter, will return to the campy horror musical as the Criminologist Narrator. Curry originated the breakout Dr. Frank-N-Furter role in the 1973 London stage production of “The Rocky Horror Show,” returning to play the character in the 1975 Lou Adler-executive-produced film.
“I am very happy and excited to be a part of this new event,” Curry said in a statement.
