Ghostface Takes Manhattan: ‘Scream 6’ Will Take Place in New York City
This won’t be the first time Ghostface leaves Woodsboro, but Bloody Disgusting can confirm a
handful of reports that
Scream 6 (or as I like to call it,
Scream 666) will be taking place in New York City.
As the official
Scream 6 plot description teases, the
Scream saga continues with the four survivors of the Ghostface killings as they leave Woodsboro behind and start a fresh chapter.
Interestingly, much like in
Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan where Jason Voorhees slashed up Vancouver, Canada staged as NYC, the sixth
Scream is also now filming in Canada.
As you might recall,
Scream 2 took place at Windsor College in Ohio.
Melissa Barrera (“Sam”),
Jasmin Savoy Brown (“Mindy”),
Mason Gooding (“Chad”), and
Jenna Ortega (“Tara”) are all confirmed to return in the next installment of Spyglass Media and Paramount Pictures’
Scream film franchise, alongside
Hayden Panettiere as
Scream 4character Kirby.
Dermot Mulroney (
Umma) stars as well.
Courteney Cox will also be back as Gale Weathers.
At the helm of next year’s brand new sequel are Radio Silence’s
Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and
Tyler Gillett (
Scream, Ready or Not) with
James Vanderbilt (
Scream, Murder Mystery) &
Guy Busick (
Scream, Ready or Not) co-writing the screenplay. Project X Entertainment’s Vanderbilt, Paul Neinstein and William Sherak are serving as producers (
Scream, Ambulance).
