Scary Movie will get a full-fledged reboot. The creators of the original films will unite and create a new movie in the famous “zero” franchise. The film will be released by Miramax. This was reported by Deadline.
The brothers Marlon, Sean and Keenan Ivory Wayans created the first two films in the franchise, which were comedic re-imaginings of the famous horror films Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. The next films in the series were already written without their participation and did not gain such popularity among the audience.
“After nearly 20 years, the Wayans brothers are finally going to give the fans what they’ve been asking for… a return to
the SCARY MOVIE franchise! We’re looking forward to having fun on the big screen again,” Marlon Wayans writes.
Released in 2000, the movie Scary Movie was one of the highest-grossing R-rated horror films of all time. The film grossed $42.5 million in its first week of release, the largest opening for an R-rated horror film and a black director at the time.
The entire franchise of five films has grossed a total of $896 million worldwide.
