I’ll admit right up front that I’m not a huge Scream fan. Oh I liked it alright… but I never understood the cult following it attained or the reverence some people seem to have for the movie (then again I love Armageddon… so what do I know).
For those of you who do love the Scream franchise, you had to celebrate when word came out that the studio was indeed developing Scream 4. Well… there might be even better news (emphasis on the word MIGHT). It seems that Wes Craven himself seems open to the idea of returning to direct it.
The folks over at Bloody Disgusting give us this:
“It would take it being really as good a script as the first one was,” explaining that he should also be compensated for his work on the franchise, “and the pay day reflects what I’ve done for that company and what Ive gone through on Cursed (laughs).”
So basically he wants 2 things: 1) A good script (the writer of the first scream is on this one too), and 2) Money. Who can blame him?
I wouldn’t be holding my breath if I were a Scream fan… but at least he is keeping the option open. You think he’ll be back? SHOULD he come back?
