EXCLUSIVE: How Adam Lambert Was Transformed Into "Rocky Horror" Badass Delivery Boy Eddie
Fox's upcoming Rocky Horror Picture Show reboot has some brilliant casting—including Adam Lambert as Eddie, Frank N. Furter and Columbia's ex-flame who meets an untimely end.
Turning the pop glampire into a messy biker with an attitude was no mean feat, but Tony-winning costumer designer William Ivey Long (Hairspray, Grey Gardens, Cinderella) was up to the task.
"Poor Eddie—he's a mess!" says Long in an exclusive behind-the-scenes video. "He's cover in mud... ripped jeans—and not in a fashion sense."
Below, Lambert and Long discuss Eddie's visual evolution.
