Tim Curry Still Unable to Walk 13 Years After Stroke

Tim Curry, the 79-year-old star of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, provided a rare update on his health at a special screening celebrating the film's 50th anniversary. He revealed that he still cannot walk due to a stroke he suffered in 2012, explaining his continued mobility challenges and dependence on a wheelchair. Curry shared that he does not expect to sing or dance anytime soon due to ongoing issues with his left leg, highlighting the long-term impact of his stroke. Despite these physical limitations, he expressed pride in the film's legacy, especially its message embraced by the LGBTQ+ community, and the cultural significance of his role as Dr. Frank-N-Furter. Curry recounted the moment of his stroke, noting he was unaware of the emergency until his massage therapist insisted on calling an ambulance. He was met with a standing ovation at the event and continues to work, recently authoring a memoir titled "Vagabond."
