"Rocketman" star Taron Egerton is in talks to star in the remake of cult classic "Little Shop of Horrors".

According to Full Circle Cinema, the 30-year-old actor is being eyed for the role of Seymour Krelborn, a flower shop employee who encounters and becomes an accomplice to a man-eating Venus flytrap.

Besides Egerton, Billy Porter is being approached to voice Venus flytrap, while Scarlett Johannson is being considered for the role of Audrey, Seymour's co-worker and love interest.
