Neve Campbell Returns as Sidney Prescott for Scream 4!

As you know Scream 4 is gearing up for production which will kick off an all new Scream trilogy. Courteney Cox and David Arquette have both committed to return to the franchise, but that is the only cast that has really been unveiled until today. Variety reports that Neve Campbell has just signed on to be in Scream 4! I wasn’t sure if she would do it or not, and I heard she wasn’t very keen on the idea, but I guess money talks, or maybe the script is really good. I’m glad she’s coming back, she really hasn’t done anything worth mentioning since Scream, which is kinda weird. So it looks like they are getting the gang back together! Everyone except for Randy, which sucks, he was always my favorite Scream character. Scream 4 will star Production in April or May, and the Weinstein’s are still in talks with Wes Craven to come back and direct the films. It would be great if they were able to get Craven back on board!

Other movies the Weinsteins plan to reboot include, Children of the Corn, Hellraiser, Scanners (3D), Short Circuit, and An American Werewolf in London. They are really excited to expanding more into 3D filmmaking.

So what do you think about Campbell’s return to the world of Scream?

Wes Craven Talks About the New Scream Trilogy.

Another popular horror series is continuing on and the director of the original series has spoken about the new films. Digital Spy recently interviewed Wes Craven who had a few things to say about Scream 4.

What's the status with Scream 4 at the moment? Are we going to see you direct it?

"Bob Weinstein (The Weinstein Company co-chairman) has talked to me, he's interested in me directing it. I had a brief conversation with Kevin [Williamson], I know that Kevin is writing. What I've said to Bob is I'm not closed to it, I'm not open to it, I'll be perfectly happy to read a script and tell him what I think. That's where it's at and I'm not expecting a script until August. I don't know what the premise is or anything."

Do you know what form it's taking? The word 'reboot' has been used.

"I don't think it's a reboot and Kevin, when he talked to me, said, 'Remember, it's not just Scream 4, it's Scream 5 and 6.' So I guess he has a trilogy in mind."

Will this even be worth seeing if Wes Craven isn't directing? I personally can't even remember the last time Kevin Williamson wrote something worthwhile. A whole new trilogy is intriguing, but does the world really need 3 more Scream movies where some unlikely killer is revealed at the end of the movie that makes you just sigh in a fit of boredom? I'd say we're better without.
