Check Out The New “Rocky” For Fox Network’s “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”

Staz Nair will be starring as “Rocky” in upcoming Fox TV presentation of The Rocky Horror Picture Show

With so much music theater coming from NBC (The Sound of Music Live!, Peter Pan Live!, The Wiz Live!)  Fox Network has decided to push the envelope a bit further with a television redux of the Rocky Horror Picture Show—with none other than Laverne Cox as “Dr. Frank-N-Furter,” the role that helped launch Tim Curry’s career by starring in the original stage production in addition to the movie.

But can we take a look at the new “Rocky?” Staz Nair, former X Factor UK contestant, will be the hottie to wear those famous gold lame booty shorts.

We’ll also be seeing the 6’1′ model-actor, who is of Russian and Indian descent, on the upcoming season of Game of Thrones.

Check out some pics from his soon-to-explode Instagram account.

“The Rocky Horror Picture Show” Cast 40 Years Later

From L to R: Barry Bostwick, Patricia Quinn, Tim Curry, Meat Loaf and Susan Sarandon.

Entertainment Weekly’s annual Reunion issued picks some great folks to come back, reminisce and remember with.

I especially love the pic of The Rocky Horror Picture Show cast Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Patricia Quinn, and Meat Loaf, brought together for the film’s 40th anniversary.

From EW:

The film was an immediate flop and then a subsequent legend, as an entire devotedly weird subculture built itself up around its red-lipsticked glory, with the call-and-response fervor of a evangelical church. “Molly Ringwald took me to a screening pretty early on,” says Sarandon. “That was the first time I saw it; I believe it was 8th Street, the whole ritual.”

“There’s something incredibly simple about Rocky Horror Picture Show in terms of its color and props and scenes,” says Bostwick. “And I think that’s what people respond to. That they can be any character in it if they have the balls to stand up and put those costumes on.”

Head over to EW for the cast reunions of “Family Ties,” “Bring It On,” and “Felicity.”
