Scream (2022)
 
Quote:

Even after the passing of Wes Craven, Ghostface continues to live on.

Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report that Gary Barber’s Spyglass Media Group is currently developing the next Scream, based on the franchise created by Craven and writer Kevin Williamson.
While Craven had directed all four Scream films before his passing, various filmmakers would get behind the camera for a television series that ran for two seasons on MTV and a third on VH1.

All four films remained canon while the series would create its own mythology. It’s unclear if the next film will continue to be canonized within Craven’s universe or be a remake, but we are hearing that, as of this writing, Williamson is not writing the screenplay.

This news isn’t all that surprising being that Spyglass is remaking Hellraiser, Dimension Films’ other property that is being written by David S. Goyer (Blade II, Batman Begins, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice).

How did Spyglass land the rights? Well, as Variety previously explained, “Spyglass Media Group was re-launched as a content company in March by former MGM topper Barber, Lantern Entertainment co-presidents Andy Mitchell and Milos Brajovic and strategic investors Eagle Pictures and Cineworld Group.”

Lantern Entertainment is the company that acquired all of Dimension Films’ assets after the allegations against Harvey Weinstein put the company in bankruptcy.

Hmm. Not too sure on this.

Scream was an actual horror classic on its own... they shouldn't even have made Scream 2, let alone any of the other sequels / remakes.

Mystic Mock 07-11-2019 04:45 PM

I'm up for it as I even watched the TV Show.

Scream 2 was brilliant though and arguably better than the original.

It's a great sequel but it doesn't come close to the original.

Loved the killers identity and the CiCi chase scene though.

Marsh. 07-11-2019 06:19 PM

Yeah, I'd say overall Scream is the superior movie but Scream 2 actually has superior chase scenes. The scene in the cop car is excellent.

1 has the superior opening scene (2 is great though) but everything else 2 was better. The cop car, cece and gale in the studio was amazing. So i think 2 was slightly better.

It’s kinda a shame the script was leaked because hallie would have been a shock, however i’m glad they changed it because derek would have been a **** reveal, another boyfriend killer but mickey and billy’s mum was a great choice.

Scary Movie has ruined Scream (2) for me, I can't take the cinema scene seriously anymore :joker:

Found the first Scary Movie funny but looking back the entire franchise was sh*te.

And when it came to Scream, it never made sense for them to parody it as Scream was so tongue-in-cheek and self aware itself anyway.

That's another one. Gale's chase through the film school. :flutter:

Laurie Metcalfe was fantastic.

Eh, the Scary Movie series has always been crap, but the first three are watchable crap, imo

Eh, eh, eh I'd say first 3 is stretching it.

Jason. 07-11-2019 11:49 PM

I love Scream but I think the franchise should be left alone now Craven is gone.

Plus every film following the same structure with the same characters surviving gets kinda stale. Scream 4 was disappointing in that regard because it did nothing new, despite being marketed as a new decade with new rules.

Marsh. 08-11-2019 12:15 AM

Jason coming in here wanting Courtney Cox dead. :rolleyes:

Yeah, Derek as the killer would've been boring and repetitive, but having Hallie as a killer would've been amazing and so unexpected.

Scream 4 should've had at least one of the 3 main characters killed off, maybe even Gale and Dewey together.

Amy Jade 08-11-2019 08:48 AM

I wouldn't mind Kirby being the main character if Neve Campbell won't return.

I doubt she would, she never wanted to do Scream 3 and openly dislikes the movie and she only returned to Scream 4 because Wes convinced her.

Did Kirby even survive? Her fate was left ambiguous.

Sis got stabbed twice in the stomach, fell to the ground, holding her bleeding stomach all alone.

Did Craven confirm if she had died or not?

Tom4784 08-11-2019 12:22 PM

I think it's destined to fail. I really liked Scream 4 but it ultimately felt a bit unneeded and that's with pretty much all the original talent on board, I'm guessing this will be a reboot and it'll probably be mediocre at best.

Glenn. 08-11-2019 12:39 PM

I was hoping for a Blumhouse reboot (in about 10yrs)

A reboot just doesn’t feel justified. The original film still holds up quite well. I’d be here for a sequel if they literally kill the main three and start afresh completely and if the story was decent enough.

Only going off second hand info from youtube but Craven deliberately did that after test screens loved her and were sad she died, had Scream 4 done better and Scream 5 put into production Hayden would have most likely been back.

Scream 5 should open with Dewey's murder. :love:

But, apparently Kevin Williamson's ideas for Scream 4 were vastly different to what we got. He left the project and it was re-written IIRC.

I think the plot is pretty much as he wrote it but Wes and Bob Weinstein changed some things around. I read Kevin wanted Sidney to 'die' at the end and Jill be the anti hero and then as the movie ends a paramedic calls out to say Sid is breathing and Jill looks horrified and then in Scream 5 Sid would have amnesia and forget Jill was a killer.

Think he was against Olivia's death being so graphic too.

Is she the one that was gutted on her bed or something?
Yeah, I always thought that death stuck out like a sore thumb. Didn't really fit the movie.

Yeah, Jill and Kirby's friend next door she wasn't meant to be killed so graphically but the producers wanted more blood basically and Kevin thought it didn't fit and he hated the hospital ending he thought it was too similar to the Black Christmas remake, apparently.

LukeB 09-11-2019 08:09 PM

Olivia's death being so graphic was great

Thanks. She was the fan favourite at the time of its release, so it made sense not to kill her off. A Scream 5 with her as the protagonist would've been great.

Not Dewey. D:

Although I think out of all 3 protagonists his death would be the least saddest. He was supposed to die in the original script before it got leaked iirc.

I mean Sidney is quite obviously going to turn psycho and kill become the killer it’s in her genes making way for Gale to become the new final girl

We had told you back in September of last year that Spyglass Media Group was resurrecting Ghostface and the Scream franchise, and today brings a very, very exciting update.

Discussing Film is reporting that Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, the two directors of last year’s hit horror-comedy Ready or Not, will be directing “Scream 5“!

Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett make up 2/3s of the filmmaking collective Radio Silence. The group was behind the “10/31/98” segment of our own V/H/S, as well as the “Way Out” and “Way In” segments of our Southbound. The other member of Radio Silence is Chad Villella, who is on board to executive produce the new Scream alongside Kevin Williamson.

Williamson, of course, wrote three of Wes Craven’s four Scream movies.

Discussing Film notes, “Plot details are scarce but sources say it will follow a woman returning to her home town to try to find out who has been committing a series of vicious crimes.”

Will the new film connect to the previous installments or bring us an entirely fresh take on the slasher tale of a masked killer knocking off pretty young folks? We don’t know at this time.
Perched that Kevin is involved but looks like it will be an entirely new story.

Glenn. 06-05-2020 10:37 PM

Neve Campbell has been approached and is currently in discussions with the directors. I think it’s a given that David and Courtney have been approached also.

Jake Hamilton who interviewed Neve today has been asked to take down the interview until nearer the films release so it looks promising.

Cal. 07-05-2020 07:13 AM

Oh I’m perched if Neve is in talks and Kevin is on board. :love:

The cast of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett's Scream 5 is beginning to grow, as David Arquette is the latest original star to sign on for the franchise reboot.

Following recent reports that Neve Campbell is in talks to reprise her role as Sidney Prescott, Arquette has been attached to play Sheriff Dewey Riley for the first time since 2011's Scream 4. "I am thrilled to be playing Dewey again and to reunite with my ‘Scream’ family, old and new," Arquette told Variety. "Scream has been such a big part of my life, and for both the fans and myself, I look forward to honoring Wes Craven’s legacy."

Spyglass noted filming is due to start later this year with COVID-19 safety protocols in place. Elsewhere, other "legacy" cast members are in conversations to reprise their roles.

News that Arquette is coming back follows comments from 2019 where he admitted he'd happily play Dewey Again. He even pitched his own idea in which he answered the all-important question of whether Dewey would still be married to Gale Weathers. That said, there's currently no news on whether Courteney Cox is expected to play the return.

Plot details are under wraps but the film will be an original story co-written by James Vanderbilt (Murder Mystery, Zodiac, The Amazing Spider-Man) and Guy Busick (Ready or Not, “Castle Rock,”) with Project X Entertainment’s Vanderbilt, Paul Neinstein and William Sherak producing for Spyglass.

Creator Kevin Williamson will serve as executive producer. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett of the filmmaking group Radio Silence (Ready or Not, V/H/S) will direct and the third member of the Radio Silence trio, Chad Villella, will executive produce alongside Williamson.

Wes Craven's original Scream was praised for being a meta reinvention of the tried-and-true slasher genre. The first movie was quickly followed by a sequel in 1997 and the third movie in 2000. After Scream 3's disappointing box office and an 11-year hiatus, the series had a modern reboot for Scream 4. Although this was meant to kick-start a "new" trilogy, the film underperformed and led to the plans being scrapped. Moreover, Craven's death in 2015 and three seasons of an unrelated Scream TV series cast doubt over a movie future until the surprise announcement of Scream 5 in late 2019.

While there were plenty of deaths across the four-movie franchise, Sidney, Gale and Dewey all survived multiple Ghostface massacres. Given the cryptic tease of more "legacy" characters being offered a role in Scream 5, horror hounds will have to wait and see if any other familiar faces from Woodsboro will join the reboot.

Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, Scream 5 stars David Arquette. The film does not yet have a release date.
Lowkey hyped
