A new batch of posters have arrived online to promote the new Scream movie, which is set to reach theatres on January 14, 2022. Although this movie is simply titled Scream, it is a follow-up to the previous four Scream movies, and the proof is right there on the posters below, which focus on franchise stars Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette. They’re back in the roles of Sidney Prescott, Gale Weathers, and Dewey Riley for one more encounter with the slasher Ghostface.
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.

Campbell, Cox, and Arquette are joined in the cast by Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, Jack Quaid, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Dylan Minnete, Mason Gooding, Mikey Madison, Kyle Gallner, and Sonia Ammar, with Scream 4‘s Marley Shelton reprising the role of Judy Hicks.
The new Scream has been rated R for “strong bloody violence, language throughout, and some sexual references“.
