Scream 6 solid member Melissa Barrera (In the Heights, 2022’s Scream) has warned and promised audiences that the sequel won’t be for the faint of coronary heart. In a current Collider interview, Barrera mentioned the sequel has the potential to be “a hundred times gorier.”
“With the last Scream, [we] were tip-toeing and trying to be very respectful of what the franchise had been, up until that point,” Barrera mentioned. “But with this one, [directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett] were like, ‘We’re going all out.'”
Barrera added that there was a saying on set that Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett have been “always asking for more blood and more sweat” which grew to become “more blood spritz… because they would just always want more.” With the earlier Scream movie reviving the franchise, the administrators have been “keeping their inner gory dreams at bay.”
The upcoming sixth installment within the long-running Scream franchise will characteristic the return of 4 survivors from this yr’s entry. Barrera (Sam), Jasmin Savoy Brown (Mindy), Mason Gooding (Chad), and Jenna Ortega (Tara) will all reprise their roles. James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick returned to write down the script–a successful staff that steered Scream to earn $30.6 million in its opening weekend.
Reviews for this yr’s Scream have been pretty split–basically, if you happen to’re already a fan you will be in for an excellent time. GameSpot’s Chris E. Hayner loved the movie’s self-referential sarcasm and regular pressure.
The subsequent Scream sequel is slated for a March 31, 2023 theatrical launch.
