Scream 5 will be the first in the series not to be helmed by Wes Craven, who passed away in 2015. The project has also tapped Murder Mystery’s James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick, who collaborated with Matthew Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett on Ready or Not, to pen the script, and Kevin Williamson, who wrote Scream, Scream 2 and Scream 4, will executive produce. Filming is expected to begin in Wilmington, North Carolina later this year.
