In November, Campbell spoke out concerning the determination to kill off Dewey (David Arquette) within the fifth movie. “I believed it was tragic and I don’t often prefer to criticize the writing in these tasks,” she mentioned throughout an look at Monster-Mania Con. “However I used to be actually disenchanted of their option to do away with David. Dewey’s such an exquisite character, and I feel we had been all in love with him and I feel all of us felt fairly unhappy about that. Which after all is the rationale they do it, as a result of it has extra influence, however now I miss him. I need to see extra of him.”
