I feel the opposite of "meh" about this.
I'm not a big fan of Rocky Horror but this cast list has me much more interested in going. Lots of really talented TV and movie actors here - I'll be curious to see how they do on stage.

I agree. The cast is sad and not exciting. Meh"
I don’t 100% agree with your assessment. I think the casting is good and somewhat exciting!! These days, in order to get a bway show up and running for at least 6-8 months, a show needs star power, and this casting announcement certainly checks that box! Can’t wait to see Juliette Lewis and Rachel Dratch!

Maybe I'm too nostalgic from that last revival, that cast was pitch perfect and electric.
This cast to me feels strangely mix and match or "best we could get from what there was", but I'm curious about the direction and concept.

Juliette Lewis should be playing Frank. Then I would be excited for this.

Juliette Lewis Is the only thing exciting about this

I’ve already heard 3 names for Columbia, Magenta and Riff-Raff and the last of which, I completely lost my mind over and fully convinced me to buy a ticket; Michaela Jaé Rodriguez is playing Columbia, Juliette Lewis is playing Magenta AND AMBER GRAY IS PLAYING RIFF-RAFF!!!!!"
this is absolutely not true

Actually, after more thought (and some tequila), I agree with u.

I am very excited by this cast, except Amber Gray. I love her but.... eh. I wanna hear a rock tenor on those songs.

No idea how this will turn out, and we each have our own favorites/preferences, but the griping over this cast is wild. Yes, its a shame they didnt land Meryl Streep and Bad Bunny for this, but back in reality, this is an impressive mix of different types of "names"---they will be able to say they have Oscar and Emmy nominated crew of diverse and undeniably talented people. The naysaying here is just silly
Personally, Juliette Lewis, Amber Gray and Harvey Guillen are worth the price of admission. Dratch seems like an inspired idea, could be fantastic. I am underwhelmed by Durand and Hsu but thats nitpicking. Cant wait.

This cast is stacked! Unlike any recent revival casting in memory!!

- Brad — Andrew Durand
- Janet — Stephanie Hsu
- Riff Raff — Amber Gray
- Magenta — Juliette Lewis
- Columbia — Michaela Jaé Rodriguez
- Rocky — Josh Rivera
- Eddie — Harvey Guillén
- Narrator — Rachel Dratch
The cast will also include Renée Albulario, Anania, Boy Radio, Caleb Quezon, Andres Quintero, Larkin Reilly, Paul Soileau, and John Yi."
probably just 4 Phantoms, while 4 others will be swings/understudies. why can't they do a larger ensemble? Otherwise, mostly thrilled for this casting(Durand should be Riff Raff).

It’s meh for me too. I don’t watch much tv or film which I guess most of these people are from?

Some of y’all are impossible to please. This cast is A+. Juliette freaking Lewis? Academy Award nominee (should be “winner”), Stephanie Hsu? Dratch? Hello??

People on here love brandishing that they're too old or ignorant and have no idea who those acclaimed actors are. And no, none of them have to prove you personally wrong. That being said, the Oracle was right again about the cast.

So there's this instantly iconic original Broadway cast.

The cast is okay imo but Juliette Lewis is far from being A-list actor. I like her a lot but let's not dilute ourselves either.

That is some crazy varied casting but Sam has been brilliant at repopulating Mary and I can't wait to see how this group melds!

A+ doesn't mean A-List...

Me too. There's nothing about any of these people that makes me think of their respective characters.

Most of Broadway musicals don't have any A list celebrities in them. Being famous on Broadway means the rest of the world has never heard of you or wouldn't notice if an understudy goes on. Juliette Lewis is the 90s icon, there's not anyone among Gen X or older millenials who hasn't heard of her. I'm wondering if people are trolling or being serious.

Color never said she was an A-list actor. And the word you're looking for is "delude."
If you don't like the cast, don't see the show.

Damn these subway tunnels. You took the words right out of my mouth (fingers?) as I was typing them.

This is a pretty delightful cast. Certainly very varied in backgrounds but all delightful and idiosyncratic. Luke Evans is the most conventional one there.
