Juliette Lewis Stars in Upcoming Film and Broadway Revival

What does the future hold for Juliette Lewis as she takes on two major roles in 2026? The actress will star in the horror-comedy film ‘Over Your Dead Body’, set to be released in theaters on April 24, 2026, and will also be part of the Broadway revival of ‘The Rocky Horror Show’, opening a day earlier on April 23, 2026.

‘Over Your Dead Body’, directed by Jorma Taccone, is based on the 2021 Norwegian film ‘The Trip’. The film features a couple who plan to murder each other during a vacation, described as a “tonal turducken” that combines elements of horror, thriller, and action. Taccone expressed pride in the film’s unique tone, stating, “I feel really proud, because it’s a difficult tone to thread.”

In addition to her film role, Lewis is also part of the cast for the revival of ‘The Rocky Horror Show’, which aims to blend camp, menace, and eroticism on stage. The revival features a mix of established screen actors and stage practitioners, including Luke Evans, who plays the iconic role of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. Evans remarked, “If you come from theater, you know everyone’s dream really is to do Broadway at least once.”

Viral clips from the revival’s curtain call have generated significant online attention, showcasing the production’s appeal to diverse audiences. The combination of Lewis’s film and theater projects highlights her versatility as an actress, engaging with both cinematic and theatrical audiences.

As the release dates approach, anticipation builds around both projects. ‘Over Your Dead Body’ promises to deliver a unique cinematic experience, while ‘The Rocky Horror Show’ revival aims to captivate theatergoers with its nostalgic yet fresh take on the classic musical.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the full cast and additional promotional events for both productions, but Lewis’s involvement in these projects positions her at the forefront of entertainment in 2026.
