With the Radio Silence directing staff placing their deal with making a monster film for Common Footage and a remake of Escape From New York, they needed to go off Scream VII to a different filmmaker to take over the horror franchise. That director ended up being Christopher Landon, who helmed movies resembling Completely satisfied Loss of life Day and Freaky. He’s made some nice horror motion pictures and it looks like the Scream franchise could be an incredible match for his filmmaking and storytelling fashion.
Throughout a current interview on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Present, Landon was requested about Scream VII and the way that ended up touchdown in his lap, and he defined that it was all the time meant to be. He mentioned:
“It got here out of the blue for me. My understanding is that there have been conversations occurring for a while. However I feel it was simply a possibility that basically arose as a result of the opposite administrators who did the final two movies, Tyler and Matt, they needed to do one thing else. They have been able to form of do one thing completely different. That is after they clearly needed to discover somebody new, and I’ve recognized Kevin Williamson, who wrote the unique movie, for a protracted, very long time and he is a good friend. I feel he threw my title into the hat and everyone form of mentioned, ‘Yeah, that is smart. That appears to make sense.’ And I used to be simply thrilled that I obtained that decision as a result of it felt very, it felt like kismet, it felt like a factor that like was all the time meant to be.”
There’s no info on who might be writing Scream VII, however the final two movies have been written by James Vanderbilt and Man Busick. Landon can be a screenwriter, so I think about that he’ll a minimum of be a co-writer on the script.
As for the solid, I think about most, if not all, of the surviving most important characters will return, so that features Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, Mason Gooding, and Jasmin Savoy Brown. It could even be good to see Hayden Panettiere.
I’m curious to see the place they take the story subsequent because the inventive staff makes an attempt to maintain the franchise contemporary.
