Spyglass utvecklar Scream 8 med systrarna Zuckerman som manusförfattare

Spyglass utvecklar den åttonde delen i Scream-serien, och har anlitat Lilla och Nora Zuckerman för att skriva manuset. Tillkännagivandet kommer efter att Scream 7 nått en milstolpe med över 200 miljoner dollar i intäkter globalt, vilket är den första filmen i serien att uppnå det resultatet. Systrarna arbetade nyligen som showrunners för Peacock-serien Poker Face.

Spyglass Media Group går vidare med Scream 8 efter de starka siffrorna för Scream 7. Den senaste filmen, regisserad av seriens medskapare Kevin Williamson i hans regidebut för franchisen, hade en global premiär på 97,2 miljoner dollar, vilket är rekord för serien. I rollerna syns Neve Campbell som Sidney Prescott, tillsammans med Isabel May, Courteney Cox, Anna Camp, Joel McHale och Matthew Lillard. Filmen samfinansierades av Paramount Pictures. Den har nu passerat 200 miljoner dollar globalt under seriens 30-åriga historia, något som Deadline först rapporterade i en exklusiv artikel den 31 mars 2026. Systrarna Zuckerman har tidigare arbetat med Poker Face, där de var showrunners, samt skrivit och varit exekutiva producenter för Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Suits, Fringe och Prodigal Son. De skrev nyligen ett pilotavsnitt för en nystart av Buffy the Vampire Slayer med titeln Buffy: New Sunnydale, som var tänkt att regisseras av Chloé Zhao men som aldrig blev av. Författarna representeras av UTA och Lichter Grossman Nichols.
