Anna Paquin And Kristen Bell In Scream 4?

Update: Dimension Films has confirmed that Anna Paquin and Kristen Bell will appear in Scream 4.

Gossip columnist Cindy Clark is reporting that Anna Paquin and Kristen Bell will film celebrity cameos in  Scream 4. We have no idea if this is true, but it is possible. Remember, the opening scene victims are almost always a famous actress cameo. But this does come from a gossip/tabloid source, so take it with a grain of salt for now.

Previously for Scream 4:

The first part of a new trilogy written by screenwriter Kevin Williamson and directed by Wes Craven. Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox and David Arquette have all previously committed to reprise their respective roles in the fourth film. The movie will be set ten years later in Woodsboro, and is described as "an ensemble" which will introduce several new characters. The new film will take place a decade later, a decade without the ghostface killer. But that doesn't mean that movie-within-the-movie-series Stab has come to an end. Williamson has said that Scream 4 will reference manga comics, Asian ghost girl movies, PG-13 horror movies, vampire films, M. Night Shyamalan movies and even torture porn. Scream 4 will begin shooting in Michigan in June 2010, aiming for a April 15th 2011 release.

Here is information on the new characters in the new movie:


  • Emma Roberts will play Jill Kessler, "one of the film's primary heroines," a cousin to Neve Campbell's character in the series. Described as "pretty in an ingenue way. Smart, strong. A little goofy, but she makes it sexy. Full of contradictions, but instantly likeable. Not a mean bone in her body. They're not close, but Jill is Sidney's cousin."
  • Hayden Panettiere will play Jill's best friend, Kirby Reed — a nerdy film geek. Described as "Cute and quirky, was a tomboy until a year ago, now she's alternative, cool and sexy. Jill's best friend. She's a pop culture and horror aficionado;"
  • Rory Culkin will play Charlie Walker, a potential love interest for Jill. Here is the character description: "Messy cute. Friends with Jill, Trevor, Kirby, and Olivia. A little cocky, he likens himself to 'Randy' from Scream 1 without the nerd part. No such luck, he's definitely a nerd. May or may not have a crush on Jill. He'd never admit it if he does;"
  • Nico Tortorella will play Trevor Sheldon, described as: "Handsome high school jock, but quiet and intense, as though a secret hangs over his head."
  • Adam Brody will play Detective Hoss, a new school cop recently graduated from college who was raised on the "CSI" TV series."
  • Anthony Anderson has played a cop on Law and Order and The Shield, so I'm guessing he plays DETECTIVE PERKINS (MALE 30s-40s; any ethnicity) Old school cop. Cocky, bigoted, and snarky.
  • Marley Shelton (Planet Terror) plays Deputy Judy Hicks, described as "Decidedly sexy, but a bit off. She went to high school with Sidney, although Sidney doesn't remember her. She perhaps likes her boss, Dewey Riley, a little bit too much." Lake Bell had been in talks for the role.
  • Erik Knudsen (Jericho, Youth in Revolt, Scott Pilgrim vs the World) will play Robbie, this film's version of Jamie Kennedy's character from the first couple films: he's the kid who knows horror movies and cliches inside and out, and will be comic relief.
  • Alison Brie plays Rebecca; Sidney's personal assistant who is jealous of her reluctant fame and fortune
  • Mary McDonnell has an unspecified role in the film
  • 20-year-old California model turned actress Marielle Jaffe likely plays one of the new teens:
  • OLIVIA MORRIS (17-18; any ethnicity) Sexy and hot. A fun girl who knows how to be bitchy without being a bitch. She finds a way to make every situation about her, but somehow does it in a charming way. Part of the Jill, Kirby, Charlie, Trevor friend group;
  • BETTE (20s; any ethnicity) Sidney's personal assistant. Type A who gets the job done. Secretly yearns for Sidney's fame and fortune;
  • REBECCA (17-18; any ethnicity) Cute, vain, over-achieving student at Woodsboro High School. Editor in Chief of the high school newspaper. She's a future Gale Weathers.
