‘Scream 4’ Going Back Behind Cameras
After a slew of test screenings on the East Coast, it looks like Wes Craven may be going back behind cameras to shoot additional film for Scream 4. On Location Vacations pointed out that one of their readers received a filming notice in Northville, MI (on Clement St. between 7 mile and Frederick) for Jan. 31 & Feb. 2 that simply listed a motion picture entitled “Z”. Anyone who was following the Scream 4 shoot last summer will remember much of the film was shot in Northville under the production name Z. Additional photography does not mean there are problems, sometime when the film is assembled they learn of soft spots that could be strengthened. Maybe they want more gore? Maybe they want a new ending? Who knows.
Steve Guttenberg will open up a Dybbuk box in the upcoming movie The Dybbuk, with Beth Grant (No Country For Old Men) and Craig Bierko (Cinderella Man) also starring.
Deadline reports, “The contemporary adaptation of S. Ansky’s play comes from writer-director Lee Amir-Cohen and writer-producer Ashley Bua. Filming has recently wrapped in LA.”
Steven Guttenberg plays Rabbi Azrael in the upcoming Jewish folklore-based horror movie. The character is described as “a spiritual leader and mystic, forced to perform a dangerous exorcism when the spirit of a dead man possesses a young woman in his congregation.”
“Tony-nominee Craig Bierko plays Sender, the young woman’s father, while Beth Grant plays Frayda, her grandmother,” Deadline notes in their exclusive report this morning.
Lee Amir-Cohen makes his feature directorial debut with The Dybbuk.
