Scream 6 Cast Grows as Sequel Announces First New Character
The Scream 6 cast continues to grow as Dermot Mulroney becomes the first franchise newcomer. The most recent installment in the beloved slasher series picked up a decade after the events of Scream 4 as a new group of teens in Woodsboro are targeted by a new Ghostface killer, with all the potential victims holding links to the town's bloody past. Scream's cast included a list of fresh and familiar faces including series vets Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David Arquette and Marley Shelton as well as Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, Mikey Madison, Mason Gooding, Jasmin Savoy Brown and Jack Quaid.
Helmed by Ready or Not duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, professionally known as Radio Silence, Scream received largely positive reviews from critics and audiences alike, with praise directed towards its continued meta commentary, performances from its cast and brutal kills. With the film scoring up over $140 million against its $24 million budget in the midst of the pandemic, Paramount quickly got to work on greenlighting Scream 6 with Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett back at the helm. As production is nearing its start on Scream 6, the roster of potential killers and suspects is growing once again.
