MTV will unveil the first footage from its upcoming Scream series this Sunday night as part of the MTV Movie Awards. Bella Thorne, who’s set to appear in the series in a recreation/homage/we’re not entirely sure of Drew Barrymore’s iconic Casey Becker sequence in Scream, will be presenting the clip. Ahead of that, we have.. this! It looks like the Scream logo, in red. Enjoy.
MTV’s Scream: The TV Series is described as a “high school-set series that will follow a slew of not-yet-slain students: shy popular girl Emma (Willa Fitzgerald), artsy loner Audrey (Bex Taylor-Klaus), computer geek Noah (John Karna), all-American athlete Will (Connor Weil), ferocious socialite Brooke (Carlson Young), and mysterious new kid Kieran (Amadeus Serafini). The show also stars Joel Gretsch as Sheriff Clark Hudson (Kierans father) and Tracy Middendorf as Maggie.” In the pilot, “a YouTube video goes viral, which will have adverse repercussions for teenager Audrey and seemingly serve as the catalyst for a murder that opens up a window to [her] towns troubled past.
Late last year, fans were thrown a twist in that the pilot would not be utilizing the now famous GhostFace mask, instead it would introduce something more ‘fleshy.’ MTV’s head of scripted development Mina Lefevre told EW, “Its a darker, almost more grounded, evolved version of the mask. Its something were constantly talking about. How did that mask become that mask? Whats its purpose? How did it evolve? If the Scream movie mask was the more plastic version, for a lack of a better description, this one is a more organic looking and frankly darker version.”
