Despite strong words from the cast and crew that this year’s “Scream” sequel (the fifth in the franchise) would be the last one, the studio is saying otherwise.
A sixth installment of the Scream franchise has been greenlit, with the creative team from the successful 2022 filmback in action.
Once again, Radio Silence’s Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett will direct, with James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick returning to pen the script. Production is slated to begin this summer.
“We are tremendously grateful to the fans around the world who enthusiastically received our film. We can’t wait for audiences to see what Radio Silence, writers Jamie & Guy and Project X have in store for our Woodsboro family,” Spyglass and Paramount said in a joint statement.
Principal photography is slated to begin this summer. Keeping with the franchise tradition, plot details are under wraps.
The 5th Scream film which recently came out was a huge success for Paramount & Spyglass. Scream is one of the greatest modern slasher franchises and the last film perfectly set up a new status quo of characters to continue the franchise with.
