UPDATE; Randy Making a Return in ‘Scream 4’? What About Craven?

Published

on

Update: Wes Craven’s assistant tells Bloody-Disgusting that she’s 99.9% sure that Wes Craven has yet to be approached for the project, contrary to reports. We’ll have official word by days end. We’re working on confirming this as we speak, but until then, iFMagazine caught up with Jamie Kennedy at the TCA’s CBS afterparty to promote his new role on CBS’s THE GHOST WHISPERER where he reported some very, very interesting news regarding Dimension Films’ Scream 4, which has become the center of the horrorverse over the past week since its surprising announcement. Read on for the story.
Despite having having been killed off in the franchise, it seems as if Kennedy could still be involved once again as Randy.

I actually had a conversation with somebody very big in the organization, and there’s a way,” he tells iF. “I don’t know what’s going to happen, but they have plans for a lot of things. You can see new faces that you wouldn’t expect and you can see old faces that you wouldn’t believe. There’s a way to bring a lot of things around.

When asked if director Wes Craven would be involved, Kennedy confirmed that it’s “the only way they’re going to do it.

Kennedy’s enthusiasm for the film seems to contradict the story reported by Moviehole this weekend, which claims that Neve Campbell is holding up the project. Watch for further developments soon.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
