‘Scary Movie’ Reboot Announced, Fans Want Wayans Bros Back

Virtually 1 / 4 of a century in the past — sorry, needed to make just a few of you are feeling a little bit previous there, too! — one of the hilarious, albeit explicitly immature types of cinematic parody was launched in theaters with The Wayans Bros’ literal 2000 Black comedy, Scary Film.

Serving as a mashup of the numerous teen slasher movies that took over the mid-to-late Nineties — Scream, I Know What You Did Final Summer season and respective sequels for each movies served as predominant materials for jokes —  the movie’s success led to a 2001 sequel, one other in 2003, a fourth in 2006 and one ultimate movie (up to now) that launched simply over a decade in the past in 2013.

It now seems {that a} new movie will quickly be arriving as early as subsequent yr, however there’s one factor many followers are hoping returns together with the reboot: Keenen, Marlon and Shawn!

Right here’s what we all know up to now on the upcoming Scary Film reboot, through Selection:

“Paramount Footage introduced that it’s partnering with ‘Quick and Livid’ mega-producer Neal H. Moritz to resurrect the dormant franchise. ‘Scary Film’ goes into manufacturing within the fall of 2024, and will hit theaters in 2025. The sequence spawned 5 earlier movies earlier than operating out of fuel with the 2013 installment. However horror has continued to be a serious drive on the field workplace, with motion pictures like ‘5 Nights at Freddy’s,’ ‘Smile’ and ‘M3GAN’ drawing huge crowds. So there’s lots of new materials for the ‘Scary Film’ staff to parody.”

The Scary Film reboot will stay beneath Miramax with Paramount dealing with distribution as a part of its first-look partnership. Sadly it doesn’t seem The Wayans Bros have been invited again up to now, or any unique forged members for that matter. That would change by fall 2024 for certain, and we actually hope so; it’s doesn’t appear to be Marlon, Shawn or Keenen left the franchise on their very own volition.

Marlon truly informed Kevin Hart, who co-starred in Scary Film 3 and Scary Film 4, that the franchise was “snatched” from them. He elaborated within the 2021 episode of Hart’s Comedy Gold Minds by stating, “We didn’t stroll away from a franchise. [The Weinstein Company] didn’t wish to make our deal, and so they snatched it.” Getting extra graphic, he added, “If The Artwork Of Warfare was actual, then they might be the Dynasty that raped and pillaged villages; that’s simply the way in which they did their enterprise.”

The total dialog is fascinating and price tuning in for, particularly as Marlon proposed the thought of submitting a lawsuit for damages misplaced within the years since they final had been concerned within the franchise on Scary Film 2 in 2001. Whereas the third and fourth movies nonetheless had Anna Farris and Regina King as co-stars loyal to the franchise, the fifth movie failed to incorporate any of the core characters save for Charlie Sheen and Simon Rex. Snoop Dogg and the late Mac Miller do make memorable cameos although, as does Katt Williams.

Fingers crossed it doesn’t get authorized and the sequence can merely get again to its core!
