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.
