Fresh off being named the biggest 2015 moneymaker of all the American Idol alumni and getting a spot in the Universal Studio’s Mardi Gras concert series, Adam Lambert has signed onto FOX’s Rocky Horror Picture Show remake.
“I grew up watching Rocky Horror, but could never imagine that I would be part of this new vision. Rocky Horror always made me feel like it was okay to celebrate my weirdness. Hallelujah, bless my soul! I love that old time rock-n-roll,” Lambert said, according to Entertainment Weekly.
Lambert will play the motorcycle driving, rock-n-roll loving Eddie who crashes the Time Warping party hosted by the Sweet Transvestite of Transylvania Dr. Frank-N-Furter played by Orange is the New Black’s Laverne Cox.
The cast will also feature Victoria Justice as Janet, Ryan McCartan as Brad, Reeve Carney as Riff Raff and Staz Nair as Rocky.
FOX’s Rocky Horror Picture Show will air in the fall of 2016.
