What can fans expect from Juliette Lewis in 2026? The answer lies in her dual roles in both the horror-comedy film ‘Over Your Dead Body’ and the Broadway revival of ‘The Rocky Horror Show’.
Set to be released in theaters on April 24, 2026, ‘Over Your Dead Body’ is directed by Jorma Taccone, known for his work on comedies like ‘MacGruber’ and ‘Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping’. The film, which is based on the 2021 Norwegian film ‘The Trip’, features a couple who plan to murder each other during a vacation, blending horror, thriller, and action genres into what Taccone describes as a “tonal turducken”.
In addition to her film role, Lewis is also part of the cast for the highly anticipated revival of ‘The Rocky Horror Show’, which opens on April 23, 2026. This production aims to attract a diverse audience by featuring a mix of established screen actors and stage practitioners, including Luke Evans as Dr. Frank-N-Furter.
Viral clips from the revival’s curtain call have already generated significant online attention, showcasing the production’s unique blend of camp, menace, and eroticism onstage. As Evans noted, “If you come from theater, you know everyone’s dream really is to do Broadway at least once.” This revival promises to be a thrilling experience for both fans of the original and newcomers alike.
As the release dates approach, excitement is building around both projects. Lewis’s involvement in these two contrasting yet equally engaging performances highlights her versatility as an actress. The film and the stage show are set to showcase her talent in very different contexts, appealing to a wide range of audiences.
Details remain unconfirmed about additional promotional events or appearances related to these projects, but the anticipation is palpable. Fans are eager to see how Lewis navigates these roles and brings her unique flair to both the big screen and the Broadway stage.
