Ryan Gosling to reportedly produce ‘Killer Klowns from Outer Space’ remake — fans joke Hollywood’s allergic to new ideas

Ryan Gosling is swapping his Ken-ergy for clown mayhem as he's reportedly signed on to produce a remake of the cult favorite Killer Klowns from Outer Space at Amazon MGM Studios. The 1988 sci-fi horror comedy, complete with alien clowns with a penchant for drama, is getting a fresh spin, and Ryan Gosling is willing to send in the clown reinforcements. We are all thrilled!

Year after year, Killer Klowns from Outer Space has attempted to stage a comeback more diligently than your beloved '80s band on tour reunion. With dreams of a sequel and proposals for a television series, all efforts have run into more red lights than there are clowns in a clown car jammed with traffic.

Even in 2023, original director Stephen Chiodo was clinging to hope with a proposal for an eight-episode limited series, complete with a journey to the real clown planet (because naturally there's a clown planet). The only version that actually materialized?

A survival horror video game that released last year, where players fled from murderous circus rejects. It received mixed-to-positive reviews, showing people will still attend if there's a lot of creepy face paint going on.

As soon as the news of Ryan Gosling remaking Killer Klowns from Outer Space came out, someone took to their X account and commented:

"Hollywood is running out of new ideas it seems"

Someone on X humorously suggested Hollywood was again operating on creative fumes, naturally, because if unsure, resurrect Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Seriously, though, who requires new ideas when murderous alien clowns are returning with the addition of Ryan Gosling? It's not a remake, it's a mad cosmic encore featuring cotton candy cannons.

With reports of Killer Klowns from Outer Space returning, the internet did what it does best: lost its collective mind. From overblown dramatics to clown puns that no one asked for, fans have flocked to social media to see some absolute gems.

Let's wade into the crazy carnival that is the comment section and see what the clown-obsessed crowd has to say.
