Scream 8 Finds It's Writers

This was announced a few days ago and I was meaning to get around to it, but yes - Scream continues to be the franchise that will make more movies.

Following the success of Scream 7 (currently in at $204.9 million and now available on digital), an eighth instalment of the popular horror is in the works. Penning the script for the movie are Nora and Lillla Zuckerman. Both have worked on the Peacock show Poker Face, which ran for two seasons. They also recently worked on the pilot for Buffy The Vampire Slayer: New Sunnydale, which Hulu chose not to pick up.

The film, which is in development with Paramount and Spyglass have no director confirmed as of now. It seems going by recent reports that Kevin Williamson will not return to direct while no cast members as of now haven't been confirmed.

So, I'm doing a list of things that I'd like to see in Scream 8.

• Returning cast should just be Sidney (Neve Campbell), Gale (Courtney Cox), Tatum (Isabel May) and Mark (Joel McHale)
• Perhaps have Robbie Rogers (Mark Consuelos) as an opening kill.
• Eight to ten new cast members. Two of them filling in as Ghostface. At least one new character surviving for a potential ninth movie.
• Ghostface motive to be better fleshed out and for them to interact with main cast a lot in the movie.
• All the new characters to be better fleshed out, including a new friendship group and love interest for Tatum.

Honestly, that's it. As news materialises for the movie, I'll report it here.
