Drew Barrymore Just Recreated ‘Scream’ Opening On French Talk Show
“What’s your favorite scary movie?”
The first season of new Netflix series “Santa Clarita Diet” is headed to the streaming service on Friday, February 3rd, and it stars Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant as a married couple whose lives get a little strange when Barrymore’s character, well, she dies… and returns to life. What do Barrymore and Olyphant have in common? They both starred in the Scream franchise!
In one of the most memorable opening scenes in horror history, Barrymore played the role of the ill-fated Casey Becker, and Olyphant later played secondary antagonist Mickey Altieri in Scream 2. Yes, Barrymore was one of Ghostface’s very first victims and Olyphant played an iteration of Ghostface, giving the new Netflix show a fun little connection for Scream fans.
Why do I bring this up? While out promoting “Santa Clarita Diet,” Barrymore and Olyphant recently made an appearance on the French talk show “C á Vous,” and the hosts had them recreate the iconic opening from Scream. Of course, Barrymore played the role of Casey Becker, while Olyphant provided the voice of Ghostface. A fun little spoof/homage to the past, if nothing more.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
