Ellen Greene, the actress who originated the role of Audrey in the 1982 film adaptation of 'Little Shop of Horrors,' is revisiting the character to mark the movie's 40th anniversary. Greene’s portrayal of the vulnerable, flower-shop worker remains one of the most recognized performances in musical theater and film history.

While the report from The Independent highlights Greene’s return to the role, it provides limited information regarding the specific format of this revisit—such as whether it involves a new performance, a documentary feature, or a commemorative event. The film, directed by Frank Oz and based on the off-Broadway musical by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, has maintained a dedicated cult following over the past four decades, largely due to Greene's unique vocal performance and characterization. As of now, details regarding the scope of this anniversary project remain sparse, though the announcement confirms Greene's active participation in celebrating the film's legacy.
