New Scream movie gets final poster before January release

We’re swiftly approaching the new Scream movie’s January 14, 2022 theatrical release date, and with just one month to go before fans will be seeing Ghostface slash his way through another cast of characters on the big screen, the new Scream‘s final poster has been released online. IGN got the first look at the poster, which you can check out below.

The release of this poster kicks off the “12 Screams for the Holidays” social media event, which will see “a new exclusive Scream surprise” being released every day for the next twelve days. If you want to keep up with the holiday screams, follow the Scream Movies social accounts at Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

This Scream “legacy-quel” is coming to us from Ready or Not (watch it HERE) directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett. The screenplay was written by James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick. Vanderbilt also produced the film for Project X Entertainment, alongside Paul Neinstein and William Sherak. Chad Villella, Gary Barber, Peter Oillataguerre, Ron Lynch, Cathy Konrad, and Marianne Maddalena serve as executive producers alongside original Scream writer Kevin Williamson.

The film has the following synopsis:

Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.
