Celebrated actor Tim Curry has been largely absent from the screen since he suffered from a major stroke in 2012. Since then, he has had a few roles that were mostly voice roles and played the narrator in the 2016 television film The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Let’s Do the Time Warp Again as a nod to the role that catapulted him into stardom. Now, Curry is making a comeback in a new horror movie called Stream.

The writer, director and producer of Stream, Michael Leavy, is known for the insanely gory Terrifier films. He said the film has been in the works for a while and that it has been very difficult to keep Curry’s comeback a secret. He shared, “This has been a really hard secret to keep and contain our excitement, especially for this long. We are so happy and thrilled to bring Tim back to the movies and back to the big screen! His charm always radiates and shines through everything he does, and we are so honored to have him a part of Stream!”

He continued, “He is someone I have idolized personally growing up, and it is one of the major highlights of my life getting to work with him, especially on a project that means so much to me. We can’t wait for fans to sit back and enjoy our movie in theaters and hopefully with a huge crowd having a blast together! This is the way horror films are meant to be seen and enjoyed. Stream is here to entertain!”

Stream is out now in movie theaters around the country. Will you be watching?
