By now it’s no secret to anyone that Ghostface is preparing to come in(shot)guns a’blazin’in the upcomingScream VI. To further drive the point home that whoever is behind the mask and under the tattered black robe is unlike any killer the franchise has seen before, the marketing team has brought us an engaging featurette in which we hear from leading actorsJenna Ortega,Melissa Barerra,Jasmin Savoy Brown,Courteney Cox, andMason Goodingas well as returning directorsTyler GilletandMatt Bettinelli-Olpinand executive producerChad Villella.While most of the clips playing throughout the teaser contain footage that we’ve seen before, the commentary by those closest to the production is what gives us exciting new information surrounding the upcoming installment.Scream VIwill move the killer and his intended victims out of the legendary town of Woodsboro and intoNew York Citywhere Gale Weathers (Cox) returned following the events of the last film and where Tara (Ortega), Sam (Barerra), Mindy (Brown), and Chad (Gooding) have recently moved. Having appeared ineach and every installmentin the franchise, Cox says that shaking things up and taking them to the Big Apple “adds so much horror” because the killer is now able to stalk his victims in asea of people.From all theteasersandtrailerspouring out to give audiences a look at what’s to come, it’s been made abundantly clear that this Ghostface is on more of a blood-fueled revenge kick than any we’ve seen before. As Barerra said, this slasher will be “the most ruthless” of them all and simply “killing people for killing’s sake.” Adding onto this idea, Brown teases that this installment will “top what came before.”RELATED:‘Scream VI’: Ghostface Takes Center Stage in New Cavity Colors CollectionAlong with thefirst looksthat we’ve seen ofScream VI, Gillet and Bettinelli-Olpin have been very open when it comes to their next addition to the legendary franchise.
