[Aquos Brawler Bri-chan]

Movie bosses at MTV have announced plans to remake cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The new film will use the original screenplay by Jim Sharman and Richard O'Brien and be overseen by Lou Adler - the executive producer on the 1975 hit, which starred Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon.

Although casting decisions have yet to be made, Adler hopes the picture will be ready in time for October 2009.

After seeing Anthony Stewart Head's portrayal of the Repo Man in Repo! The Genetic Opera, that would be awesome to see him playing Frank.

Also, I could definitely see Jack Black as Eddie.

Oh no,
no no no

They are going to wreck it :/

..I DO DIBS ON MAGENTA biggrin DD

But Helena Bonham Carter is a good candidate for Magenta

Edit: OH YES! Jack Black as Eddie will be good!

Should be interesting. A lot of recent remakes have been pretty impressive, so I'm sure we're in for a show.

DIBS ON COLUMBIA!! but no one can pull off flipping frank. god, i've only seen it 5 times, but i would be too used to it. helena bonham carter rox! i waz reel dumb when i saw it the first time, so i actually thought helena bonham carter WAS magenta!! this'll be great.

In my opinion it is going to suck. You can not remake a classic.....
