Hot patootie! Victoria Justice has landed the key role of Janet in Fox's TV remake of Rocky Horror Picture Show, the network announced on Monday, January 4.
The 22-year-old actress, best known for starring in Nickelodeon's Victorious, will take on the part that proved to be a star-making turn for Susan Sarandon in the 1975 cult film.
Fox also announced that Ryan McCarten (Liv and Maddie) will play Brad, while Reeve Carney (Penny Dreadful) has been cast as Riff Raff. In the original film, Barry Bostwick was Brad, and Richard O'Brien played Riff Raff.
