The Scream Franchise

My dream project would be a spin-off for Jennifer, Gale and Kirby. 8-10 episodes on Paramount Plus. The show would be about Kirby using her expertise to investigate serial killers in America. Jennifer could be working on another project that has a series or murders and Kirby is brought in to investigate. Gale could be thrown in as someone reporting on the series which she begrudgingly does due to her connection to Jennifer.

I see it like a mix of the comedy of Elsbeth and the darkness of Criminal Minds. It would be a perfect addition to their lineup as well.
 
So great!

Do we think Scream production / casting has some kind of talent for booking these recent break out stars or is it pure luck?

Love this reunion last night.
 
A bit of their talent (because Scream casting is usually damn good for the horror movie, and also excellent at getting talent while they're cheap) and a bit of luck (being in a Scream movie gets actors noticed, but making the most of that momentum is always a bit of luck - many of our faves fail). The horror genre has historically been good for female characters with agency, so always attracts young female talent.
 
I had a nice surprise at work today! One of the people on my team called out so I had to respond to customers and one of the people who reached out to me was Liana Liberato! I didn't mention that I knew who she was but the temptation was there. I've had quite a few celeb interactions with my current job but never anybody from Scream.
