Earlier today Ammon told you all about the newest casting news for SCREAM 4 in the form of Nico Tortorella. Alright so we have no idea who the dude is but it’s SCREAM news so that means it’s big news to us! And here I am, less than 24 hours later, with more SCREAM news to tell you all about!
It seems the guys over at /Film got their hands on some-what of a casting breakdown for SCREAM 4! That’s right folks! You want to know a little bit more about the characters we get to see Ghostface slice and dice on this go-around? Read on below!
–Emma Roberts will play Jill Kessler, “one of the film’s primary heroines,” a cousin to Neve Campbell’s character in the series. Described as “pretty in an ingenue way. Smart, strong. A little goofy, but she makes it sexy. Full of contradictions, but instantly likeable. Not a mean bone in her body. They’re not close, but Jill is Sidney’s cousin.”
–Hayden Panettiere (below) will play Jill’s best friend, Kirby Reed — a nerdy film geek. Described as “Cute and quirky, was a tomboy until a year ago, now she’s alternative, cool and sexy. Jill’s best friend. She’s a pop culture and horror aficionado;”
–Rory Culkin will play Charlie Walker, a potential love interest for Jill. Here is the character description: “Messy cute. Friends with Jill, Trevor, Kirby, and Olivia. A little cocky, he likens himself to ‘Randy’ from Scream 1 without the nerd part. No such luck, he’s definitely a nerd. May or may not have a crush on Jill. He’d never admit it if he does;”
–Lake Bell will play Duputy Judy Hicks, a police officer who knew Sidney (Campbell) from high school. The casting call described the character as follows: “A police officer, decidedly sexy but a bit off, she knew Sidney from high school. Didn’t make a big enough impression for Sidney to remember her. Likes her boss, Dewey, perhaps a little too much. NAME CAMEOS PREFERRED;”
Well there you go! So it looks like we’re getting two ‘Randy Meeks’ for this go around… You can head on over to /Film for more character breakdowns that’re yet to be cast! So let’s start the speculation below: Who else can you see signing onto SCREAM 4?
Filming on SCREAM 4 is set to kick off next month in Michigan so be sure to keep it here for more on the highly anticipated sequel as we hear it!
