Scream 4
Courtney Cox is signed on and geared up for the fourth edition of the Scream series. There has been a rumor that Dewey and reporter Gale Weathers will be killed off right at the beginning of the film. Cox didn’t respond when reporters of the Associated Press asked her if the rumor is true. Scriptwriter Kevin Williamson told the New York Post "there are a lot of twists and turns, so I can't promise anything. There are a lot of moving pieces, so we'll see -- but if you're a 'Scream' fan, I think you're really going to like it." I’m certainly excited and hopeful that they bring us back to the fear and suspense that was captured so well in the original. David Arquette and Neve Campbell will also return for Scream 4.

There’s no update as of yet to know whether or not Cage has accepted the offer but I’m sure we’ll find out soon.
