It's time to do the time warp again! San Diego Comic-Con, which runs July 21-24, will feature a panel about Fox's remake of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW as well as a special first look at the movie.

Cast members and producers, including Laverne Cox, Victoria Justice, Reeve Carney, Christina Milian and director Kenny Ortega, will attend.

THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW remake is a star-studded reimagining of the cult classic film. The original film is celebrating 40 years of theatrical distribution, longer than any other film in history. Sweethearts Janet (Victoria Justice) and Brad (Ryan McCartan), stumble upon Dr. Frank-N-Furter's (Laverne Cox) bizarre abode. Frank-N-Furter, a sexually ambiguous, flirtatious alien mad-scientist - with the help of his faithful servants Riff Raff (Reeve Carney) and Magenta (Christina Milian)-is holding an annual, Transylvanian science convention to showcase the birth of "Rocky Horror" (Staz Nair)-a fit, attractive man created solely to fulfill Frank's desires."

Kenny Ortega directs the remake and it's executive-produced by Lou Adler, Gail Berman and Ortega.

Comic-Con is a nonprofit educational corporation dedicated to "creating awareness of, and appreciation for, comics and related popular art forms, primarily through the presentation of conventions and events that celebrate the historic and ongoing contribution of comics to art and culture."
