[TV] “Scream” Series Will Go In A Supernatural Direction
Monday morning Harvey Weinstein stated that he’s attempting to get his brother to back a Scream 5, which would end the franchise once and for all.
But where does that leave the MTV television series, currently being adapted by Jay Beattie and Dan Dworkin?
Weinstein told the Zurich Film Festival audience that there’s no overlap between the series and film franchise, adding that the series “is supposed to represent a new beginning and also pursue a supernatural direction.”
The fact that MTV’s target audience is that of “Teen Wolf” doesn’t excite me, at all. The idea that there’s a supernatural spin to Ghostface could be interesting, but there’s no way in hell MTV takes this in the direction us hardcore horror fans would want: that of Freddy, Jason or Michael.

Dan Stevens and Al Pacino Starring in Exorcism Horror Movie ‘The Ritual’
Dan Stevens is everywhere lately, from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire to Abigail and the upcoming Cuckoo. We’re not complaining. Up next? He’s starring in horror movie The Ritual.
Al Pacino and Dan Stevens have both joined the cast of the upcoming exorcism horror movie from XYZ Films and director David Midell, Variety reports this afternoon.
Based on a true story, the film “follows two priests — one questioning his faith (Stevens) and one reckoning with a troubled past (Pacino) — who must put aside their differences to save a possessed young woman through a difficult and dangerous series of exorcisms.”
Variety details, “The film is an authentic portrayal of Emma Schmidt, an American woman whose demonic possession culminated in harrowing exorcisms. Her case remains the most thoroughly documented exorcism in American history.”
David Midell and Enrico Natale wrote the screenplay for The Ritual.
XYZ Films is planning to release the horror film theatrically in 2025.
