This from IF Magazine:
SCREAM veteran Jamie Kennedy was on hand at the TCA’s CBS afterparty to promote his new role on CBS’s THE GHOST WHISPERER.
iF Magazine caught up with the funnyman to get an exclusive on the rumored fourth SCREAM movie. The Weinstein Company has been notoriously hush-hush so far on the project except to announce that they’re planning to reboot the franchise.
Despite having having been killed off in the franchise, it seems as if Kennedy could still be involved.
“I actually had a conversation with somebody very big in the organization, and there’s a way,” he tells iF. “I don’t know what’s going to happen, but they have plans for a lot of things. You can see new faces that you wouldn’t expect and you can see old faces that you wouldn’t believe. There’s a way to bring a lot of things around.”
When asked if director Wes Craven would be involved, Kennedy confirmed that it’s “the only way they’re going to do it.”
And what are the chances the project will actually go through? According to Kennedy, “Why wouldn’t they” he says. “Great franchise. There hasn’t been one in eight years, so it’s due. It seems like it was just yesterday.”
An update from BD:
Wes Craven’s assistant tells Bloody-Disgusting that she’s 99.9% sure that Wes Craven has yet to be approached for the project, contrary to reports. We’ll have official word by days end.
No, they didn’t.
