Cast And Filmmakers Talk GhostFace in New SCREAM Movie Featurette

Ghostface and Jenna Ortega in Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Media Group’s “Scream.”

Can’t wait for January when the new SCREAM movie debuts in theaters? Here’s a featurette on what makes Ghostface a horror icon, as well as new character posters, to tide you over until then.

Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.

Neve Campbell (“Sidney Prescott”), Courteney Cox (“Gale Weathers”) and David Arquette (“Dewey Riley”) return to their iconic roles in Scream alongside Melissa Barrera, Kyle Gallner, Mason Gooding, Mikey Madison, Dylan Minnette, Jenna Ortega, Jack Quaid, Marley Shelton, Jasmin Savoy Brown, and Sonia Ammar.

Kevin Williamson Reveals SCREAM 4 Setting

In the “not as confusing as Ridley Scott’s timeline for the ALIEN PREQUEL” department (not much really is), screenwriter Kevin Williamson released more information about the upcoming SCREAM 4 via MTV and his Twitter page.  In fact, he gave up some information regarding the upcoming, new trilogy of SCREAM films.

Here is what he had to say:

The fourth one is an ensemble.  It’ll take place right now, 10 years later, and it’s going to take place in [Sidney Prescott’s hometown of] Woodsboro. We’ll have our three main characters, and we’ll be introducing several more.  We’ll also be introducing a little group, a little ensemble of new castmembers. That’ll take us through the next three.

Williamson is concurrently writing the screenplay for SCREAM 5 and, from what we can gauge by his comments above, SCREAM 6 isn’t too far off.  With this many SCREAM sequels on the horizon, some (okay, probably, most) people might think it a bit ridiculous.

Williamson comments on that, too:

I guess I’ll just have to be very aware of the fact that we’re a ‘4’ and that we’re beating a dead dog. I’m going to make that very apparent in the dialogue.

No release date has been set for the fourth SCREAM film.
