Scream 4 to begin Production in May

By Rodney - February 19, 2010 - 12:34 America/Montreal

Looks like Wes Craven has dropped the word, and will be headed to filming Scream 4 in May.

The Film Stage says:

Craven recently finished “My Soul to Take,” which is scheduled for release sometime this year. And in May, he starts on “Scream 4.”

Kevin Williamson who has written the rest of the films in the franchise, as well as I Know What You Did Last Summer and The Vampire Diaries has written the script for the fourth entry. Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette are returning for what is intended to be a new trilogy.

Its been hinted that the new ensemble cast film will be heavy with popculture references to horror films, and be set 10 years after the last one (its been 10 years since that film anyways), which could make more sense for the ultra paranoid Sidney Prescott, who’s life was crippled with fear over her 3 previous encounters with serial killers. At this point you would expect her to be locked up in a saferoom somewhere not even answering her door for Jehova Witnesses. At least with a decade of peace she might have thought it was safe to go back into the water.

But that was my theory for a new Scream film. That Sidney would be the killer. Have her finally snap and flip the moral coin the other way. Becoming the killer because she somehow figures there must always BE a Ghostface, and lose her grip on reality. All that paranoia and fear has to mess you up.

    I am looking forward to this.

    I can believe Kevin Williamson has matured in his writing ability after so many years. After seeing the logic crazy writing of Scream 3, he must want to set things right.

    Is it just me or is Courtney Cocks doing too much Botox? her upper lip looks like the Grinch for heavens sake. and where has Neve Cambell been?

    would like to see some younger girls do this at this point. Courtneys gettin’ tired.

    just sayin

    Pity. This wreaks of desperation for everyone involved.

  6. Lawrence says:

    Having Sidney go insane and be ghostface is pretty lame. Maybe Wes Craven has something else original for part 4.

    • Rodney says:

      Because having Sidney become what she has fought against for 3 films is not original?

      You might not like the idea, but that hardly makes it unoriginal.
