Paging Dr.Frankenfurter

The cult classic film Rocky Horror Picture Show (my favorite movie) is getting a facelift from Fox in the way of a television show that will premier this fall. Lavern Cox is set to play the iconic Dr.FrankenFurter with Tim Curry to return as the shows narrator. Since the announcement of the show last year, details have been under wraps. Entertainment Weekly has relived us of the antci...pation (I'm sorry I had to) and gave us the first look at Lavern Cox as Frankenfurter.

Lavern Cox had the following to say about FrankenFurters news look "We were on set and a reporter saw me and said I looked like the love child of Grace Jones and David Bowie. I said ‘That’s exactly right.’ I think we mix up the look more than they did in the original. It’s inspired by the original but it’s really our own take. It’s way more elaborate and couture. [Director] Kenny Ortega had this vision that Frank was at this old theater and found these old burlesque costumes and is, like, using them and wearing them now but has altered them a bit.
