Neve Campbell says Craven could direct 'Scream 4'

Neve Campbell in Scream

More and more "Scream 4" news are starting to surface on the Web, although I prefer to consider some of them more as rumors at this point. The latest: Neve Campbell's thoughts about Wes Craven.

In a recent interview with Black Book
, actress Neve Campbell said she believes Wes Craven may return to direct the fourth film in the popular horror series. Kevin Williamson is currently writing the script.

"I'm pretty sure at this stage that Wes [Craven] is back on board to direct and Kevin [Williamson] is definitely writing it...so it is going to be great,"
she said.

Courteney Cox gives quick 'Scream IV update!

Courtney Cox in Scream

Courteney Cox is excited to return to horror in the upcoming sequel "Scream IV," and the actress recently gave the Associated Press a short update on where she thinks her character will be in the fourth film.

"They're probably back living in Woodsboro," she said. "I think that he's probably still deputy, and I've had a lot of kids. I don't know. I'm probably miserable, and then I'm sure a lot of murdering will happen."

Is she serious? I don't know, and I don't care. I'm glad she's back as part of the original cast, and so is husband David Arquette and Neve Campbell, who played Sidney Prescott in the previous flicks.

Here's what Wes Craven has to say about 'Scream 4'

You've heard quite a few things about the possibility of a brand-new "Scream" trilogy heading our way, but one man who hasn't said much about it was Wes Craven, who helmed the first three films.

But Craven broke the silence recently in an interview with Digital Spy. First of all, he said he's not really considering directing "Scream 4," which Kevin Williamson is currently prepping:

"What I've said to Bob (Weinstein) is I'm not closed to it, I'm not open to it, I'll be perfectly happy to read a script and tell him what I think. That's where it's at and I'm not expecting a script until August."

Craven also confirmed the return of Courteney Cox Arquette and David Arquette for a fourth movie, but he stressed they will probably the only original characters to make a comeback.

Courteney & David Arquette to star in 'Scream' reboot?

So, how excited are you about the upcoming "Scream" trilogy? Like it or not, it will happen, and writer-director Kevin Williamson has already been working on a reboot that will most likely bring back a bunch of characters from the earlier films. According to EW, Williamson even talked to Courteney Cox Arquette and David Arquette about the possibility of them returning as well.

No definite deals have been made yet, and no word on whether Neve Campbell's character will be back in action. Eventually, I don't really care what Williamson wants to do because I'm not particularly interested in the making of three new "Scream" flicks (I kind of gave up after the second one), but on the other hand, it would be sweet to have at least some of the original characters return.
