Jasmin Savoy Brown Says She Hasn’t Gotten a Call About ‘Scream 7’
What the hell is going on with Scream 7? It’s impossible to know at this point in time, but it seems any and all original plans for the franchise’s next installment have been scrapped.
Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega are no longer starring and Christopher Landon is no longer directing, while Neve Campbell is waiting on the “right circumstances” to return.
It’s safe to say the “core four” – Barrera, Ortega, Jasmin Savoy Brown & Mason Gooding – is no more, but will the “core two” (Savoy Brown & Gooding) return in Scream 7?
Speaking with Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet at the Emmy Awards over the weekend, franchise star Jasmin Savoy Brown revealed she hasn’t yet gotten any calls.
Savoy Brown (“Yellowjackets,” Scream) tells ET, “I haven’t gotten a call. So I think if you want to ask Spyglass what they’re doing, you can. I haven’t gotten a call.”
She notes in the interview, “I think that everything that we did, the core four, is amazing and important and should be celebrated forever. And I’m glad that we got to capture that on screen. And I’m proud to have four people of color in that horror film. I’ll forever be proud of that.”
Stay tuned for more on Scream 7 as we learn it. The movie is not only without a star but also without a director, so a lot is going to have to come together for this one to get moving.
Last we heard, James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick are still on board to write the script.
NEON has been absolutely slaying the marketing game for their horror output this year, and they’re kicking the Longlegs campaign into high gear with one more month until release.
A cryptic ad in The Seattle Times today (seen below) has led clever horror fans to discover TheBirthdayMurders.net, the brand new official viral marketing website for Longlegs.
The in-universe website details the victims of the serial killer known as Longlegs (Nicolas Cage), described as a “Satan-worshipping psycho” who has terrorized families throughout the Pacific Northwest for nearly three decades.
The website details, “A bloody trail of bodies here in the great state of Oregon attests to the depraved savagery of this one-of-a-kind serial killer. With over three dozen victims that we know of, LONGLEGS is one of the most prolific mass murderers ever to have graced the region, and his gruesome endeavors are the stuff of nightmares. At first, all of the killings appeared to be straightforward murder-suicides: the handiwork of average men who suddenly snapped and slaughtered their wives and children. But a series of eerie coded messages left at the crime scenes indicate that someone – or something – is influencing these horrific crimes. The cryptic letters are signed by someone calling himself LONGLEGS.”
“With thirty-eight kills to his name, LONGLEGS has torn apart the lives of eleven different families throughout the Beaver State. His victims were good people: honest fathers, decent mothers, innocent little children.”
The website is loaded with secrets, clues, and gruesome (faux) crime scene photos, and you might even find a mention of yours truly nestled in there. Poke around. Stay a while.
Longlegs arrives in theaters July 12.
The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.
In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.
The film is rated “R” for “Bloody violence, disturbing images and some language.”
