New SCREAM Featurette Focuses on Late Director Wes Craven's Legacy

Another featurette has been released for the upcoming Scream titled “For Wes.” This one puts the focus on the late director Wes Craven, who helmed the first four Scream films along with several other classic horror movies.

The video features the cast and crew talking about the filmmaker and sharing their experiences of working with him on the Scream movies. They also discuss how the filmmaker inspired them and helped them.

Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.

This new Scream movie comes from the filmmaking team of Radio Silence (Ready or Not), and they brought back Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescot, David Arquette as Dewey Riley, and Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers. They are joined by newcomers Melissa Barrera (In the Heights), Jenna Ortega (The Fallout), Mason Gooding (Tragedy Girls), Jack Quaid (The Boys), and Dylan Minnette (13 Reasons Why).

Scream creator Kevin Williamson is producing the film, and he’s had nothing but good and positive things to say about it. The movie is scheduled to hit theaters on January 14, 2022.
