Courteney Cox And David Arquette Reunite (With Neve Campbell) In 'Scream 4' Photo

Posted 10/14/10 5:49 pm EST by in Hot Stuff, News, Photos


Things aren't going so peachy for Courteney Cox and David Arquette in real life, and it looks like the same holds true for their "Scream" alter-egos Gale and Dewey.

E! Online has debuted the first photo from the "Scream 4," and it shows the trio of Cox, Arquette and Neve Campbell, a.k.a. "Scream" queen Sidney Prescott, reunited for the first installment in the franchise since 2000. We're not sure what's got them looking spooked, but safe money is that it has something to do with a certain Ghostface Killer.

The photo hits the Web just a few days before Arquette and Campbell are set to introduce brand-new "Scream 4" footage at Spike's 2010 Scream Awards, which will tape on Saturday and air Tuesday night. Read More...

Wes Craven Dishes On 'Scream 4' And Possibility Of New Trilogy

Posted 10/8/10 11:26 am EST by in Interviews, News, Video


There has been no dearth of "Scream 4" casting news these past few months, with a steady stream of young stars -- Emma Roberts, Adam Brody, Hayden Panettiere, Nico Tortorella, Erik Knudsen, Marley Shelton and Rory Culkin -- lining up alongside series regulars Courteney Cox and David Arquette to fight for their lives (in most cases futilely) in the face of a new spate of Ghostface killings.

In a recent chat with MTV News to discuss his 3-D supernatural thriller "My Soul to Take" (in theaters today), "Scream 4" director Wes Craven gave us a rundown of the fourth installment's plot and revealed whether those new "Scream" trilogy rumors are true.

"The studio wants to be very, very secretive about it," Craven admitted. "I think it's kind of known that Neve is returning to her hometown for a short visit, and all hell breaks loose. But there's also a whole cast of new characters -- there's some very, very interesting kids." Read More...

New Faces Take Over 'Scream' Franchise; Will The Alum Be Cleared Out In The Opening Scene?

Posted 5/21/10 1:14 pm EST by in Commentary, News


Scream 4 CastingWith the “Scream 4” production's July start date fast approaching, Wes Craven is getting down to business and trying to nab some hot young stars so the “Scream” alum can hand off the franchise to a new generation. As we reported earlier, Lake Bell is currently in negotiations to join the cast and Ashley Greene, Hayden Panettiere and Rory Culkin have all been offered key parts.

With Neve Campbell, David Arquette and Courteney Cox set to reprise their roles from the original three films, these new characters clearly must have a connection to one, if not all, of our old friends from Woodsboro. If the deals go through, the most direct of the bunch will be Greene’s character, Jill. Not only is she Sidney Prescott’s cousin, but she’ll also be assuming the role of the film’s leading lady. Panettiere’s role is Jill’s best friend, a major movie geek, and Culkin would play Jill’s love interest. The closest to sealing the deal is Bell, who will play a police officer Sidney knows from her high school days. Read More...

Posted 4/29/10 11:56 am EST by in Commentary, News


"Scream 4" is now a little less than a year away, and we're starting to hear some things about it. Last night, Entertainment Weekly debuted a new teaser poster for the movie, featuring the tagline "New Decade, New Rules. They've also got a new interview with now-confirmed director Wes Craven to go along with it.

Specific plot revelations are minimal; Craven really only confirms that the setting -- at least in part -- will be the fictional town of Woodsboro, now shot in Michigan instead of northern California. There's much to take away from his vague comments and general observations, however. Reading between the lines leaves us much to think and speculate on. Read More...

Wes Craven Confirmed As 'Scream 4' Director, 2011 Release Date Set

Posted 3/23/10 11:00 am EST by in News


Somebody get Captain Obvious on the phone, because today's "Scream 4" news has his name all over it. It all started last year, with the news that series creator Kevin Williamson would be returning to his script-flipping horror series with an all-new trilogy set after the events of the original three movies (i.e. not a reboot). Things moved quickly from there, as the Arquettes committed to reprise their roles, as did Neve Campbell (following some uncertainty), and Williamson revealed some of his plans for the follow-up.

Through all of that, it was believed that original series director Wes Craven would return, possibly at the helm. Courteney and David Arquette confirmed as much to MTV back in January. So the news today that Craven is nothing new for people who have been following the wacky turns "Scream 4" has taken in the past bunch of months. Read More...
