Steve Martin has lashed out at claims made by former Little Shop of Horrors co-star Miriam Margolyes after the 82-year-old actress claimed he hit her during filming for the 1986 movie.
Within the pages of Margolyes’ new memoir Oh Miriam: Stories from an Extraordinary Life, she pulled no punches when it came to suggesting that Martin isn’t quite the friendly, lovable figure fans believe him to be.
Instead, Margolyes described the actor as being “horrid” to her on set, suggesting that he had struck her more than once while filming Little Shop.
