Joseph Gordon-Levitt is going to remake Little Shop Of Horrors (again)
The film industry has been arguing for a while now that nothing—not Batman, not a Quentin Tarantino movie, not Tony Danza—cannot be improved by the addition of Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Now that hypothesis is going to be put to the test with a remake of Little Shop Of Horrors, the 1986 movie musical about the dangers of being peer pressured by plants and why dentists are totally fucked up. Little Shop, of course, is no stranger to remakes, beginning life as a 1960 Roger Corman movie before being turned into the Off-Broadway play, which was then itself adapted by Frank Oz into what many assumed to be the definitive version, until someone realized they could stick Joseph Gordon-Levitt in it as Seymour. (It's not a question of merit, it's not demand and supply, you know the meek are gonna get what's coming to 'em, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt's a meek little guy, and so forth.)
