Scream 6 Set Photos Hint At Major New Franchise Location

screenrant.com:

A collection of Scream 6 set photos indicates the sequel will transplant its survivors to a famous U.S. city. 2022's Scream was a franchise-defining entry, bringing Wes Craven's creation back to the big screen after 11 years and introducing fans to a new generation of Woodsboro survivors. Sam, Tara, Mindy, and Chad received the proverbial torch from the fan-favorite trio of Sidney, Gale, and Dewey after surviving Ghostface and established a clever commentary on the state of legacy sequels in the horror genre.

Scream's success at the box office immediately opened the doors for Paramount and directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett to film a sequel. Since Scream 6's greenlighting, news about the project has swirled. Courtney Cox is confirmed to return with the four new survivors, who proclaimed their intentions to leave Woodsboro and the Ghostface killer behind them. In a shocking announcement, franchise star Neve Campbell will not be joining Sam and the others as they begin their lives anew elsewhere.
