Lilla and Nora Zuckerman, better known as the Zuckerman sisters, are set to write the script for Scream 8. The picture is in development at Spyglass, so get ready for more Ghostface!
The Zuckerman sisters previously served as showrunners for season one of Peacock’s Poker Face, a comedy-drama series starring Natasha Lyonne. They have also worked as writers and executive producers on series including Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Fringe, and Suits. They had written the recently-cancelled Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot, which was to be directed by Oscar-winning Chloé Zhao.
This follows Scream 7 making history earlier this year when it became the highest-grossing film in the franchise. The film saw franchise creator Kevin Williamson back in the director’s chair, and the return of original final girl Neve Campbell – who did not appear in Scream VI due to salary disputes – as her teenage daughter Tatum (Isabel May) became Ghostface’s latest target. The screenplay was co-written by Williamson and Guy Busick (Ready or Not films, Abigail).
Additional cast members included Courteney Cox, Matthew Lillard, Anna Camp, Mason Gooding, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Joel McHale, Mckenna Grace, Michelle Randolph, Ethan Embry, Mark Consuelos, Jimmy Tatro, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, and Sam Rechner.
There’s no information as to who might direct Scream 8, though Williamson has said in an interview that he likely wouldn’t be returning as director for this upcoming instalment.
