Los Angeles, Aug 1 (SocialNews.XYZ) Actress Courteney Cox will be back as news reporter Gale Weathers in the upcoming reboot of hit film, Scream.
Filming is expected to begin later this year in Wilmington in North Carolina, reports variety.com.
"Ready Or Not" directors Matthew Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett will direct the reboot, scripted by James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick.
In May, actor David Arquette had shared that he is reprising his role as Sheriff Dewey Riley in the upcoming reboot. The plot details for the reboot are still under wraps.
The original "Scream" released in 1996 with Neve Campbell starring as Sidney Prescott, the target of the Ghostface killer, whose look was inspired by the Edvard Munch painting "The Scream".
