The heated back-and-forth between Pauly Shore and Richard Simmons is purportedly over.

Shore agreed last year to portray the fitness guru if a biopic project should ever materialize, as fans had noticed a glaring likeness. On Wednesday, Shore confirmed its officially happening and at first, Simmons reacted unfavorably.

But in a twist, Shore claimed in Park City, Utah, at a screening of his short film The Court Jester a separate project in which he portrays the 1980s fitness icon that Simmons has since completely changed his tune and even wished Shore well ahead of Fridays screening.

He texted me and he said, Good luck tonight on the show, said Shore in audience footage obtained Saturday by TMZ.

Representatives for Shore and Simmons did not immediately respond to HuffPosts requests for comment.

The saga between the two men began harmlessly when fans on social media urged Shore to portray Simmons in a film.

The Bio-Dome star said Wednesday it was finally underway, only for Simmons to respond.

You may have heard they may be doing a movie about me with Pauly Shore, Simmons wrote Wednesday on Facebook . I have never given my permission for this movie. So dont believe everything you read. I no longer have a manager, and I no longer have a publicist.

I just try to live a quiet life and be peaceful, he continued.
