Did you play with trying to get all three of them in one scene? I was expecting to see all three legacy characters in a scene, but perhaps Dewey’s death is more meaningful because it is the story engine that gets Sidney back home. You have this moment of hope where he sees her face on the phone and you kind of know that he’s ready to go in that moment, because he’s weirdly gotten the one thing that maybe he’s been missing for the last two years. And then of course this romantic thread that is pulled into it when Gale finally calls him. The idea that one knife was never going to be enough for Dewey to meet his end. In the scene itself, we really wanted to make sure that that death felt as heroic an end as possible. It brings Sid and Gale together and cements a deep bond between them. It wasn’t this brutal, superficial kill that you then move on from. William reached out to David’s reps and reached out to David before was sent along. It’s a big shift for the franchise and a big risk.
Tyler Gillett: We knew automatically reading that scene that it was a really sensitive moment. How do you tell David that this is the end of the road for Dewey? Does he just find out when he reads the script? You have so much respect for the legacy characters. “Let me go make a movie with my ex.” Hats off to both of them. I don’t think it’s a thing a lot of people would be willing to do. What you see in the movie felt like the right representation for Dewey and Gale. It was really special that they opened up like that and let us in on it. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin: We felt the whole time we were observing someone’s relationship from afar. What was it like watching David Arquette and Courteney Cox perform the scene in which Dewey and Gale reunite? There is not only character history, but real-life history with the formerly married couple. They also reflect on that Dewey shocker, those Rian Johnson references and spending time on the Scream subreddit. But in a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Radio Silence shares thoughts on what it would take to make a sixth Scream. No formal plans have been announced for Paramount and Spyglass to continue beyond this Scream, which is the fifth installment of the franchise launched by director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson 25 years ago. The film reunites original stars Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette with a new batch of actors, as someone wearing a Ghostface mask once again haunts Woodsboro. Despite pandemic theatrical challenges, the film has managed to pull in an impressive $84.9 million globally to date and is still going strong.
Radio Silence broke out with the horror film Ready or Not (2019), which earned $57 million on a $6 million budget, and with Scream they are reaching new heights. “You could feel people were so glad that he lived. “I heard an audible, cathartic, gasp,” Bettinelli-Olpin says of the reveal that Chad lives. 14, they went around the Los Angeles area to experience it in theaters with an audience for the first time. That move has already paid dividends, if audience reaction is any judge.īecause of COVID-19, the Scream filmmaking team known as Radio Silence, which also includes co-director Tyler Gillett and executive producer Chad Villella, was not able to do traditional test screenings. The Scream team tweaked the script to add a beat to the very end of the film, in which the audience sees Chad alive (if not totally well), exchanging a look with his sister, Mindy Meeks-Martin ( Jasmin Savoy Brown). 'Scream' Sequel a Go From Spyglass and Paramount This guy is the greatest! We’d be crazy to get someone this charismatic and just kill them,'” recalls co-director Matt Bettinelli-Olpin. “The conversation as soon as he signed on was, ‘Well we can’t kill Chad. In the original script from writers James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick, the charismatic jock (and nephew of Jamie Kennedy’s original Scream character, Randy Meeks), dies during the third act. Seconds after the filmmakers behind the new Scream ended a meet-and-greet Zoom call with Mason Gooding, they knew he was their choice to play Chad Meeks-Martin.
