Scream marks Sonia Ammar‘s first major feature role and Mikey Madison‘s first horror credit, but both grew up adoring the franchise from a very young age. The actors play Liv and Amber, respectively, as part of the new generation of Woodsboro teens.
Ahead of Scream‘s release in theaters on January 14, Bloody Disgusting chatted with the pair about what it was like to film a whodunit mystery without knowing which character was actually the killer, and their bloody ties to the series growing up.
Ammar recalls, “I was 8 or 9 and I dressed up as Ghostface… me and my brothers did. And I remember my mask was one of the ones with the blood pump that you squeeze, and all the fake blood gets into the mask. Yeah, the school wasn’t very happy about that because we weren’t allowed to bring weapons or fake blood. So that was really fun.”
“[It was] really exciting, and… I keep using the word surreal, but that’s really how it felt,” Madison explains the experience of moving from a fan of the series to an actual part of it.

The filmmaking team this time around includes directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett, as well as executive producer Chad Villella, the three members of the filmmaking group Radio Silence (Ready or Not, V/H/S, Southbound). In the new movie…
“Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.”
James Vanderbilt (Murder Mystery, Zodiac, The Amazing Spider-Man) and Guy Busick (Ready or Not, Castle Rock) wrote the script. Michel Aller served as the editor for the film.
