With the box office success of Scream (technically Scream 5) early this year, Paramount and Spyglass have already ordered up Scream 6, first announced just about a month ago.
No plot details are available at this time, and without spoiling anything about this year’s movie, there are still plenty of characters alive to do battle with the next Ghostface…
One of those characters is Gale Weathers, who has appeared in every Scream movie to date. And Courteney Cox confirms this week that she’s signed on for Scream 6!
Cox told the Just for Variety With Marc Malkin podcast this week, “I got the script yesterday. And I haven’t read it yet. I just got it, and I’m so used to getting, you know, Shining Vale scripts, which are 26 pages, and I’m, ‘Whoah, I’ve got to read a script.’ I’m excited to read it.”
Courteney Cox notes that filming on Scream 6 will likely kick off June in Canada.
Radio Silence’s Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett are returning to direct the franchise’s next installment. James Vanderbilt & Guy Busick are also back to write the script.
Creator Kevin Williamson and the third member of Radio Silence, Chad Villella, are executive producing alongside Spyglass’ Gary Barber and Peter Oillataguerre.
