While promoting his new Peacock original slasher flick Sick (which is awesome, by the way), Scream creator Kevin Williamson took a moment to praise Scream VI and the team behind this year's sequel.
"It doesn’t feel like 'Part 6,’ it feels like you're watching this big, huge, fresh reinvention," Williamson, who returns as an executive producer on Scream VI, tells SYFY WIRE during a larger discussion about his COVID-19 horror flick: SICK (streaming on Peacock tomorrow). "I love, love, love, love it. "I’ve watched the movie with a big smile on my face. I think it's everything and more. And going to New York was awesome. The movie feels new, it feels fresh, it feels like a new movie."
A fast-tracked follow-up to last year's well-received soft reboot (simply titled Scream), the upcoming film hailing from Paramount Pictures, Spyglass Media Group, and Project X Entertainment was once again written by the duo of James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, two members of the filmmaking collection known as Radio Silence, are back as co-directors.
"Radio Silence is amazing, they’re the perfect people to take the torch," Williamson concludes. "I love Scream VI. It’s really good. It’s great. There’s no way around it. I’m very happy with how it turned out … I really do have all that enthusiasm for it. I’m really excited."
