Horror Returns to the Cover of EW, New ‘Scream 4’ Clip, TV Spots, Kevin Williamson Gets Brutally Honest!
It’s a Scream 4 extravaganza as we’ve got all sorts of goodies leading you up until next week’s release (April 15).
First, and the most exciting in my opinion, is the brand new cover for Entertainment Weekly, which features good ol’ Ghostface! It’s rare when mainstream media gives horror this much love; only good things can come of it. You can watch a video of the photo shoot from set here.
Included in the article, screenwriter Kevin Williamson opens up about the on set turmoil: “Everyone was second-guessing everything, because everyone wanted it to be so perfect,” Williamson recalls. His arguments with Weinstein intensified over the months and ultimately came to a head. “Oh, I got in a big fight with Bob,” says Williamson. “We got into a massive fight creatively, and we hugged it out and then we moved on.”
Also, beyond the break you can dig on a fourth clip that features a bit of death, alongside two new TV Spots.
Next week Bloody Disgusting will bring you an exclusive interview with director Wes Craven, with the official review on Wednesday.
Watch all four clips and b-roll:
