Nearly 1 / 4 of a century in the past — sorry, needed to make a number of of you’re feeling a bit outdated there, too! — probably the most hilarious, albeit explicitly immature types of cinematic parody was launched in theaters with The Wayans Bros’ literal 2000 Black comedy, Scary Film.

Serving as a mashup of the numerous teen slasher movies that took over the mid-to-late Nineties — Scream, I Know What You Did Final Summer time and respective sequels for each movies served as major materials for jokes —  the movie’s success led to a 2001 sequel, one other in 2003, a fourth in 2006 and one closing movie (so far) that launched simply over a decade in the past in 2013.

It now seems {that a} new movie will quickly be arriving as early as subsequent 12 months, however there’s one factor many followers are hoping returns together with the reboot: Keenen, Marlon and Shawn!

Right here’s what we all know thus far on the upcoming Scary Film reboot, by way of Selection:

“Paramount Footage introduced that it’s partnering with ‘Quick and Livid’ mega-producer Neal H. Moritz to resurrect the dormant franchise. ‘Scary Film’ goes into manufacturing within the fall of 2024, and will hit theaters in 2025. The collection spawned 5 earlier movies earlier than operating out of gasoline with the 2013 installment. However horror has continued to be a serious pressure on the field workplace, with films like ‘5 Nights at Freddy’s,’ ‘Smile’ and ‘M3GAN’ drawing massive crowds. So there’s a number of new materials for the ‘Scary Film’ staff to parody.”

The Scary Film reboot will stay beneath Miramax with Paramount dealing with distribution as a part of its first-look partnership. Sadly it doesn’t seem The Wayans Bros have been invited again thus far, or any authentic solid members for that matter. That might change by fall 2024 for positive, and we definitely hope so; it’s doesn’t seem like Marlon, Shawn or Keenen left the franchise on their very own volition.

Marlon truly instructed Kevin Hart, who co-starred in Scary Film 3 and Scary Film 4, that the franchise was “snatched” from them. He elaborated within the 2021 episode of Hart’s Comedy Gold Minds by stating, “We didn’t stroll away from a franchise. [The Weinstein Company] didn’t need to make our deal, they usually snatched it.” Getting extra graphic, he added, “If The Artwork Of Conflict was actual, then they might be the Dynasty that raped and pillaged villages; that’s simply the best way they did their enterprise.”

The total dialog is fascinating and value tuning in for, particularly as Marlon proposed the thought of submitting a lawsuit for damages misplaced within the years since they final had been concerned within the franchise on Scary Film 2 in 2001. Whereas the third and fourth movies nonetheless had Anna Faris and Regina Corridor as co-stars loyal to the franchise, the fifth movie failed to incorporate any of the core characters save for Charlie Sheen and Simon Rex. Snoop Dogg and the late Mac Miller do make memorable cameos although, as does Katt Williams.

Fingers crossed it doesn’t get authorized and the collection can merely get again to its core!
