    DAVID ARQUETTE WILL RETURN TO PURSUE GHOSTFACE AS DEWEY RILEY IN THE RELAUNCH OF SCREAM FOR SPYGLASS MEDIA GROUP James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick to Co-write the Screenplay With Project X Entertainment Producing, Creator Kevin Williamson Serving as Executive Producer and the Filmmaking Collective Radio Silence at the Helm LOS ANGELES (May 18, 2020)— David Arquette will reprise his role as Dewey Riley in pursuit of Ghostface in the relaunch of “Scream,” it was announced today by Peter Oillataguerre, President of Production for Spyglass Media Group, LLC (“Spyglass”). Plot details are under wraps but the film will be an original story co-written by James Vanderbilt (“Murder Mystery,” “Zodiac,” “The Amazing Spider-Man”) and Guy Busick (“Ready or Not,” “Castle Rock,”) with Project X Entertainment’s Vanderbilt, Paul Neinstein and William Sherak producing for Spyglass. Creator Kevin Williamson will serve as executive producer. Matt Bettinelli- Olpin and Tyler Gillett of the filmmaking group Radio Silence (“Ready or Not,” “V/H/S”) will direct and the third member of the Radio Silence trio, Chad Villella, will executive produce alongside Williamson. Principal photography will begin later this year in Wilmington, North Carolina when safety protocols are in place. Arquette said, “I am thrilled to be playing Dewey again and to reunite with my ‘Scream’ family, old and new. ‘Scream’ has been such a big part of my life, and for both the fans and myself, I look forward to honoring Wes Craven’s legacy.” Though Arquette is the first member of the film’s ensemble to be officially announced, conversations are underway with other legacy cast.

  • Horror Movie Genre in Order to Expose Any Commonalities, Consistencies, Structural Or Harmonic Similarities Or Significant and Communicative Compositional Approaches
    How Film & TV Music Communicate – Vol.2 Text © Brian Morrell 2013 Chapter 4 H O R R O R This chapter analyses some key musical repertoire of the horror movie genre in order to expose any commonalities, consistencies, structural or harmonic similarities or significant and communicative compositional approaches. Music analysed includes: Final Destination (Shirley Walker) Predator (Alan Silvestri) Silence of the Lambs (Howard Shore) The Exorcist (Tubular Bells - Mike Oldfield) The Thing (John Carpenter) Wrong Turn (Elia Cmiral) Drag me to Hell (Christopher Young) A Nightmare on Elm Street (Charles Bernstein) Scream (Marco Beltrami) Poltergeist (Jerry Goldsmith) The Grudge (Christopher Young) Anaconda (Randy Edelman) Silence of the Lambs (Howard Shore) The Shining (Wendy Carlos) FINAL DESTINATION Shirley Walker Capitalizing on our morbid fear of death, Final Destination is a 2000 American supernatural horror movie (now franchise) about a group of teenagers who ‘cheat death’. A student on a plane which is about to take off has a premonition that the plane will crash after takeoff. He panics and leaves the plane with a group of others. Ultimately the plane does eventually crash. By saving himself and a handful of other passengers the main protagonist has altered the future, or ‘death’s design’. The group of teenagers continues to be stalked by ‘death’, which claims back their lives one by one. The idea of an invisible force killing its victims is not a new one, but the idea of ‘death’ having a design and a plan works well in a modern context. One of the main points which so enticed producers into making the film is that there is no physical figure – no monster or killer.

  • A Note About This Story Life and the Movies
    Shifting into Overdrive by C. J. Anders A Note About This Story Kevin Williamson is a screenplay writer and a producer and director of movies. He was born on March 14th, 1965 and grew up in New Bern, a small town in the state of North Carolina, in the east of the U.S.A. Kevin loved movies and his favorite director was Steven Speilberg.

  • Williamson, Kevin (B. 1965) by Craig Kaczorowski
    Williamson, Kevin (b. 1965) by Craig Kaczorowski Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright Copyright © 2006 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Screenwriter-producer-director Kevin Williamson has been called "the most successful openly gay hyphenate in Hollywood." He is perhaps best known as the writer of the clever, self-referential horror film Scream (1996) and the thriller I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), as well as the creator of the groundbreaking television teen soap opera Dawson's Creek (1998-2003). Williamson has said he knew he was gay "as far back as I can remember." Although he came out to his family in 1992, it was not until 1998 that Williamson outed himself in the public arena. While promoting an episode of Dawson's Creek, which introduced a homosexual theme into the popular television series, he realized the time was right to come out publicly. "I just reached a point," Williamson recalled, "where [I thought], I'm gay, I've told my parents, all my friends, everybody I know knows I'm gay." Previously, when asked about his sexuality, Williamson said he had simply evaded the issue, and had been "more coy than in the closet" about it to the media. Williamson has described his work as "very personal and autobiographical." With the remarkable success of his early screenplays, he increasingly has been able to establish gay themes and characters in his projects, particularly the gay teenage character on Dawson's Creek and the closeted soap opera actor on his short- lived series, Wasteland (1999).
