Williamson Updates 'Scream 4' Status
Tuesday, August 4, 2009

While there's nothing really all that new, Scream 4 writer Kevin Wiliamson explained in a new interview that his new show takes priority over this project. “I’m going to finish the script in the next couple of months and then we’ll start the project,” Williamson tells iF Magazine. “It depends on the hiatus schedule and then we'll get in serious talks with [original trilogy director] Wes [Craven] and what his schedule is like. Then the VAMPIRE DIARIES -- I’m committed to this and I have another show at ABC that nobody knows about. That could come in and change everything.” So assuming everything goes as planned, we'll be seeing the return of Courteney Cox and David Arquette in a new Scream trilogy soon. Still no word on Neve Campbell's return, although reports have indicated she's waiting for "the right price." That's nice to know.

"I won't be a part of Scream 4, 5, or 6," says Williamson. "I'm done. Three stories and that's the end of it." Of course, if there's many to be made, Miramax might squeeze a few more out anyway. "If we ever did get to a Scream 4," Weinstein says, "it wouldn't happen for at least three years, and there'd be all new characters and a whole new conception. Right now, though, we all see the franchise ending at three."

i think its good to see he has more time to do the script,maybe we will get a better storyline,plus with neve in negotiations he may have his story with Sid included on hold..

You left out the part where he calls Dewey "Sheriff Dewey" and the part where he lets us know Jamie Kennedy won't be returning (Thank you! The cameo in Scream 3 was LAME.). I'm glad Courtney's show got picked up and things are moving slowly. Better script = better film.

OK, I'm sick of waiting for my genius to be discovered. Why wait for Kevin Williamson when you can have this (Cue music): "SCREAM 4 REAL" Setting:Hollywood A "shape" (if you will) in full "Ghost face" ensemble is bumping off the actors (in order of their involvement) in the Scream franchise to rekindle the once dead series, and in hopes of sparking interest in a reboot! Actress Drew Barrymore returns, playing herself and must face Ghost face first. In hopes of catching the serial killer, director Wes Craven and co-writer Kevin Williamson must rewrite history in order to end the bloodshed. Can they convince Neve Campbell to return? David and Courtney Cox Arquette's lives will depend on it. Think Wes Craven's New Nightmare meets SCREAM in SCREAM 4 REAL! Now, show me the BLOOD money!

NO Neve No movie! But Neve is being a Bitch about it. If they are going to remake it then why are they bringing back orignial cast? Well at least I thought they were remaking it.

Vintage Luciani Films you need to find the Weinsteins and pitch that to them ASAP! Don't let that great idea go to waste.

Thanks Halloweenchief! You know, I've wanted to make movies ever since I can remember. I even went to damn film school. But what they don't teach you is how to "Make it". You've gotta pay your dues and hope for a shot, or know someone in the biz. Maybe this will be the first Horror site web pitch to launch a career in the genre!

Scream was awsome sream 2 blew and all that scream 3 did was promote the band Creed.

Wow VAMPIRE DIARIES, I thought this was going to suck but if Kevin is going to write for this series there's hope yet. I wonder how his writing has changed after being one of 90's most influential writer.

The original SCREAM was clever and original. ALL the rest has been shit and more shit. #4 seems pointless? Where is this gonna go ? #3 was so bad I have a problem remembering where it ended? I can't because it was crap.

the right price??? she aint doing crap now (oh wait that show that is on nbc), but still. if it wasnt for scream neve would be a nobody. these actors/actresses/football players crack me up. we live in a economy that has gone belly up and all of these people care about is show me the money. makes me sick. these people should be happy to have a job with whatever money is being offered to them. about what majority of us dont have jobs or anything. even if she stars as a cameo or something. i hope she doesnt come back she dont deserve to.......oh ya cant wait to see dewdrop again.

Scream 3 was a huge sellout. Masturbatory filmaking. If you wanna do a serious horror film, don't have cameos from Jay n Silent Bob, and don't promote Creed in every fucking shot in the movie. I had a lot of fun at the theater when the original Scream premiered, all of us in the audience had no idea what was going to happen. Scream 2 was good, then 3... eh. Also I won $500 in a bet that Dewey's theme music was the same music used in Broken Arrow, so I love Scream, it made me cash in the past and I look forward to the next Installment, if done right.

Well its being remodelled into another Trilogy based on newer characters with the originals falling into background characters.. however.. i don't know how they plan to do this with Randy returning? I just look forward to the film.. Scream is one of the most consistent horror series of films ever made, with each of them being as good as the predecessor..

It should be decent. I won't expect much else.

They need to leave Scream where it lies and think of something else.

Scream 3 was a fitting ending to the series...why ruin the storyline by milking out another sequel? Seriously, just how many murderers can one woman encounter in her lifetime!?! A fourth movie is a STUPID, GREEDY decision. Either start from scratch with new characters, or let a dead series rest in peace!
