Why?

I just looked it up and Tim Curry is in it playing the Criminologist role that was played by Charles Gray in the original

And replacing Richard O'Brien as Riff Raff just seems wrong.

I don't know. The teaser looked pretty good and Cox definitely nails Tim Curry, in those few lines anyway. Brad and Janet look so mundane though and tho whole thing is unnecessary of course. I'm conflicted.

They're doing the Time Warp? Again?

Good idea. All great musicals get revived for newer generations. This just confirms Rocky's status as an American classic.

And let's face it…the original movie kinda sucked. Don't believe me? Try watching it sometimes when you're NOT drunk or stoned (heh...talk about sacrilege!)

So babies don't you panic. Maybe we'll see Carrie Underwood in a live to air version sometime soon.

What a terrible idea ,, Just leave the classics alone

It looks horrible

No Tim Curry? Not interested.

Last I saw he was in wheelchair and still having trouble speaking after his stroke

Hopefully he has improved since then but he is probably limited from acting at this stage after stroke
