The script can be found [URL="http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Studio/3684/script6.html"]here[/URL], though this version does have Debbie Salt/Mrs. Loomis in it. It's definitely stronger the way it was filmed. 3 killers is waaaay too much!
So anybody got any new news about the possible returning cast? Is it a remake? It really needs to be if its going to be any good. It'll be sweet if they use the whole original cast.

The Arquettes are returning, and so is Neve :)
And as far as I know, it's meant to be the start of a new trilogy.
I don't want to read that script (if it is in fact real) and unless the script is mind-blowingly awesome I don't see a reason for a Scream 4 though I do realize pretty much all returning parties involved are in need of a hit. Part 3 was pretty lame and forgettable as it is.
[QUOTE=TSPKM;142937]Yeah Scream 3 was just bad. Scream 2 was okay, but I love Scream 1. I really would love to see Courtney, Neve, David, Rose and Matthew return.[/QUOTE]
Um....and how exactly are Rose and Matthew supposed to return?
I'm not a big fan of this idea, but hey - if it's happening, I'll get my *** in a seat. I can't deny my love for this entire series.
Has Craven signed on yet? That's really the ace in the hole.

Uhm thats why I said that I wanted it to be a remake so they could return. I have a feeling its going to end up like a Return to House on Haunted Hill or I'll Always Know what You Did Last Summer type of movie.

Nah...With the original cast, original writer, and possible original director...this movie is going to have a crazy budget - at least 20-30 million. I'm sure it'll surpass a direct-to-dvd quality movie.
Scream changed the Horror films. There is no way it will not be huge. It can be put up there with the best of the best like Halloween and Friday the 13th. It's not a bad Jennifer Love Hewitt movie and will never be brought to that.

I agree, but I don't know if there will ever be a slasher film better than the original Halloween. Just my opinion. But here recently they have turned Halloween into a joke, so I'm looking foward to Scream 4 and I agree, I think it will be huge and I definitetly think it will live up to the hype.

Apparently he has ever since the script was sent to him. They are still getting the cast together, but as of now, Wes has signed on, from what I have heard.

If this is one big rumor I will cry. :weep:
I know this is not the right movie thread, but they are already making another Halloween movie called Halloween 3-D and it's supposed to be out sometime in the summer of 2011. And it is not directed by Rob Zombie. I found out at IMDB. I have a feeling this is going to be a joke of a Halloween movie with all the 3-D stuff, so Scream 4 better be good.

He probably knows what he's talking about.
I will be so excited if the original cast is signed on for this. Neve, Courtney, David, Matthew, and Rose all back! I think it would be cool if they just rewrote the story with the same characters.

Has this even begun filming? When does that start, this summer?
[QUOTE=RockSteadyVybes;165342]Has this even begun filming? When does that start, this summer?[/QUOTE]
I've heard they start filming sometime this month or next month.
[QUOTE=ishot_JT;165348]I cant believe its been a decade since the last scream!!?!?!?!?!?!? It will be cool if its 3D :D[/QUOTE]
I'd prefer it to not be in 3D. I want it to be as close to the original in tone/feel as possible. 3D is kinda tacky I think. Piranha 3D? Bring it. Scream 4 3D? Not so much.

[I]It’s been 10 years since his last appearance in Scream 3, but Ghostface is back for more, as is the original Scream team of director Wes Craven, screenwriter Kevin Williamson (The Vampire Diaries), and the acting trio of Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette. Dimension Films gave EW.com the first look at the final teaser poster for Scream 4, which will hit theaters April 15, 2011. Horror movie maestro Craven, who’ll start shooting the new sequel this June, kindly set aside a few minutes to chat about the fourth entry in his memorably meta series.
[B]ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: So how did Scream 4 come together?
WES CRAVEN:[/B] Bob Weinstein [the head of Dimension Films] felt that 10 years was enough of a wait. He felt it was time to give the original three films their due, so he called Kevin Williamson, who started coming up with ideas. For some years, Kevin had the notion of the general course of the next three movies. There was a point where Bob came to me and said, “We want to start showing you pages — do you want to do it?” And off we went.
[B]Did you have any trepidation about revisiting the series so many years down the road?[/B]
No, I’m fascinated by what this movie is. I can’t think of another film that has not only a true trilogy, where you’re following a single central character over three pictures, but has the complexity to the story and other characters that also have continued along. And then 10 years later, to come back to those same characters and same actors, and continue that story in a way that’s totally organic. It’s kind of unprecedented.
[B]Are Sidney (Campbell), Gale (Cox), and Dewey (Arquette) still going to be the central characters, or are they on the periphery this time?[/B]
It’s a total integration of those three and new kids. The story of Sid, Gale, and Dewey is very much a part of the movie.
[B]And Sid’s still having problems with Ghostface?[/B]
There have been 10 years of no Ghostface, but there has been the movie-within-a-movie Stab. We have fun with the idea of endless sequels, or “sequelitis” as Kevin calls it in the script. Sid goes through these three horrendous things, and Stab was based on those horrible things. And then they’ve been taken by a studio and run into the ground in a series of sequels. She has been off by herself and living her own life, and she’s even written a book that has gotten a lot of critical acclaim. She’s kind of put her life back together in the course of these 10 years. But, certainly, there would be no Scream without Ghostface, so she has to confront him again, but now as a woman who has really come out the darkness of her past.
[B]Can you tease what’s happening with Dewey and Gale by this point?[/B]
I don’t think Bob Weinstein would be very happy if I disclosed anything. We have been playing CIA with trying to keep everything secret, and we haven’t put any pages out from the current version of the script, except for things we’ve already discarded. Our first experience with casting this time around, the sides [portions of the script used for auditions] that we used were put on the Internet the same afternoon. It was bad back when we made the other movies, too. On Scream 2, we had the first 40 pages of the script show up on the Internet the night they arrived from Kevin, and we had to do backflips to rewrite the opening.
Speaking of openings, are you at least going to continue with having a couple killed at the beginning of the film?
That’s a strong possibility. [Laughs] Certainly, you will recognize what Bob calls the DNA of the film: a very complex murder mystery, a shocking action picture, wonderful humor based on character, and lots of surprises, as well as a movie that kind of copies itself. It’s a pretty amazing script.
[B]What is your opinion of where the horror genre has gone these past 10 years?[/B]
It feels like the end of an era of a certain type of film. There are series of films, a lot of sequels, and a lot of remakes, and part of the humor of Scream 4 is when characters comment on that. “Enough of Saw 25 and all!” [Laughs] A lot of films, directors, and studios are the butts of some of the jokes. In order to figure out what’s happening around them, the characters have to figure out where the genre of horror is. So this is a look at horror after 10 years of a lot of sequels rather than original films coming up year after year. One film is successful, and then they make 25 of them. I think it’s time for something new. I’ve done remakes of my own films, too, with The Last House on the Left and The Hills Have Eyes, but we feel it’s time for something new and different, and that’s what this film is going to be.
[B]But then is it ironic that this is the fourth film in a series?[/B]
Yeah, but I’ve never felt like these are sequels. This is a film about the progress of, at this point, three core characters, and how all of these events have changed their lives, and how the events in their lives have been reflected in the movies around them, which they might like or might really not like at all. I think that makes it really different.
[B]As for the poster’s tagline, “New decade, new rules,” are the new rules going to specifically comment on what’s happened these last 10 years with horror movies?[/B]
It’s very much about the last 10 years, and where we are right now. “New decade, new rules” is very much the keynote of the film, that is, trying to figure out what sort of rules (the new Ghostface) is following. How do we fight this killer without a road map? We have to figure out where we are.
[B]Are you returning to Santa Rosa, Calif., to shoot?[/B]
We’re actually going to Michigan. We found a wonderful small town that looks very much like the town we had in Northern California. Frankly, the tax breaks in Michigan are enormous, so we’ll be able to put a lot more movie on the screen.
[B]But this Michigan town is still supposed to represent (the series’ fictional town of) Woodsboro?[/B]
Yeah. I guess I just gave something away. [Laughs]
[B]Can we count on Scream 4 remaining an R-rated movie with blood and guts and all that fun stuff?[/B]
I think that’s safe to say. I’ve very excited about it. At this point in my career, Scream is one of the longest running stories I’ve told. It’s fascinating to still have actors who are very much into continuing their roles and have great chemistry. Part of the reason these three characters are still alive is because they’re so great. We haven’t wanted to kill them.
[B]And, should Scream 4 become a hit, you are signed on for Scream 5 and 6, right?[/B]
Yeah, I’m signed on for the duration.[/I]
