SCREAM 6 Will See the Return of Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, Jasmin Savoy Brown, and Mason Gooding
When it was announced that we would be a sixth Scream movie from the same filmmakers who brought us Scream, Radio Silence (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett), there were no details on the casting.
We’ve now learned that several of the main characters who were introduced in the last film, will be returning to the franchise. Those actors include Melissa Barrera as Sam, Jasmin Savoy Brown as Mindy, Mason Gooding as Chad, and Jenna Ortega as Tara.
Courteney Cox also previously confirmed her involvement with the film, but we still don’t have confirmation that Neve Campbell will be back as Sidney Prescott. I hope she comes back! I really like the last film and I’m curious to see what’s in store for this next project and see how they will take a fresh approach to the franchise.
When previously talking about what we can expect from the next movie, Gillett said that it will subvert expectations:
"This movie has to be willing to risk it all in order to subvert all of those expectations, and we're so far down the rabbit hole of Scream movies, that it's all up for grabs at this point."
Scream 6 is being written by James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick and the movie is set to start shooting this summer for a theatrical release on March 31, 2023.
