Following today's TCA Panel where the cast and director of the upcoming THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW chatted about FOX's upcoming small-screen adaptation of the cult classic, a new trailer has been released that will leave you shivering with antici...pation.

The special two-hour musical event follows sweethearts JANET (Victoria Justice, co-host of TEEN CHOICE 2016, "Victorious") and BRAD (Ryan McCartan, "Liv & Maddie," "Heathers the Musical"), who stumble upon DR. FRANK-N-FURTER's (Emmy Award-nominated actress Laverne Cox, "Doubt," "Orange is the New Black") bizarre abode. Frank-N-Furter, a sexually ambiguous, flirtatious mad-scientist, is holding an annual Transylvanian Science convention to showcase the birth of ROCKY HORROR - a muscle-bound specimen created solely to fulfill Frank's desires. Actor and singer Staz Nair ("Game of Thrones") will star in the role.

Also featured in the event are "American Idol" alum Adam Lambert as EDDIE, Reeve Carney("Penny Dreadful," "Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark") as RIFF RAFF, Tony Award winnerAnnaleigh Ashford ("Sylvia," "You Can't Take It With You," "Masters of Sex") as COLUMBIA,Christina Milian ("Grandfathered") as MAGENTA, Ivy Levan as USHERETTE, Tony Award winner Ben Vereen ("Pippin") as DR. EVERETT SCOTT and Emmy Award nominee Tim Curry, the original Frank-N-Furter, as the show's CRIMINOLOGIST NARRATOR.

Celebrating 40 years of theatrical distribution - longer than any other film in history - "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" is one of the most popular films of all time, and still plays in movie theaters around the world.

THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, a brand-new reimagining of the cult-classic midnight movie 40 years in the making, premieres Thursday, Oct. 20 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
