Canadian Entertainment Tonight Segment Carries More ‘Scream IV’ Goodies
While you guys already saw the “Entertainment Tonight” report from the set of Scream IV that featured a look at some of the filming behind Wes Craven’s rejuvenated franchise, a Canadian version aired that featured a slew of new footage and interviews. In theaters April 15 from Dimension Films, the new film sees the return of cast members Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette, along with a group of new stars – Emma Roberts, Hayden Panettiere, Rory Culkin, Nico Tortorella, Anthony Anderson, and Marielle Jaffe – who can hopefully stay alive long enough to figure out the new rules to this one-of-a-kind horror franchise.
