Matthew Lillard Hitting Homers, Instead of Slashing Victims — Storyboards Leak!
It was reported last night that Scream star Matthew Lillard (who played the psychopath, Stu) was seen having dinner with Scream IV star (and franchise survivor) Neve Campbell. Immediately, we all thought he might be returning, even though he died in Wes Craven’s 1996 slasher. According to Beforethetrailer, Lillard is actually in Milford, Michigan filming Home Run Derby (or Home Run Showdown). Who knew the guy still got regular work? Also, it doesn’t mean Craven didn’t find a clever way of giving a cameo to one of the best actors in the entire franchise. Until further notice, consider the Scream IV rumor debunked. On a second set of news, if you click here you’ll find a whole bunch of storyboards that contain potential spoilers. Enjoy!
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
