Ryan Gosling is reportedly developing a Killer Klowns from Outer Space remake at Amazon MGM Studios. Gosling is poised to take the producer’s chair for the reboot.

The 1988 cult classic sci-fi horror comedy received positive reviews at the time and follows a clan of evil extraterrestrials who resemble clowns.

They arrive on Earth and invade a small Californian town in order to capture, kill and harvest the human inhabitants to drink their blood.

The film starred Grant Cramer, Suzanne Snyder, John Allen Nelson, and John Vernon. Shot in Watsonville, California, and at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, it leaned heavily into its colorful visual aesthetic and a playful score by John Massari. Despite earning just $43 million at the global box office, the film received generally positive reviews and later found its footing through VHS releases and cult midnight screenings.

Details about Gosling’s version are scarce so far. No cast, director, or release date has been announced, but the news alone has stirred up buzz for a fresh take on the cult favorite.
