Ready or Not and V/H/S filmmakers Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett are resurrecting the Scream franchise with a brand new movie for Spyglass Media Group and Paramount Pictures next year, and the Radio Silence duo’s involvement immediately led many fans to wonder if Ready or Not star Samara Weaving would be coming on board to battle Ghostface.
Alas, while that was the hope, it looks like it’s just not going to work out.
“We were talking about it, but our schedules aren’t gonna work, which is a bummer,” Weaving just told Collider this week. “We talked about it a lot, but unfortunately, because of scheduling, I couldn’t do it. I”ll still be [in Australia], working on Nine Perfect Strangers, so we couldn’t make it work. Traveling is very difficult, these days.”
Needless to say, Weaving would’ve been a perfect addition to the Scream universe, and it’s not hard to imagine her becoming a new fan-favorite franchise character. Sigh.
The confirmed cast so far includes Jenna Ortega (“You”) and Melissa Barrera (“Vida,” In the Heights) alongside Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers and David Arquette as Dewey Riley.
The plan is for Paramount to release the untitled sequel in 2021.
