A New Jersey pizza shop just got an offer it couldn’t refuse.

Paramount Pictures is demanding that the The Doughfather in Monroe Township change its logo and branding, which the film studio claims is too similar to that of its iconic 1972 film “The Godfather.”

“I didn’t mean no harm to anybody, but we’re going to correct that,” he said.

“It’s one of the greatest movies ever made,” he told WABC-TV.
