With Scream 4 getting ready to start filming soon, the final casting pieces are being put in place. It’s already been announced that old hands Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox and David Arquette and being joined by newbies Emma Roberts, Hayden Panettiere, Rory Culkin, Lake Bell, Nico Tortorella and Lauren Graham.
And now comes news, via EW, that they’ll be joined by Anthony Anderson and Marielle Jaffe. There’s no onfo on what roles they’ll play, although with Scream’s post-modern tendencies you’ve got to imagine they’ll have something interesting planned for Anthony Anderson, who appeared in both Scary Movie 3 & 4, which was of course (initially at least) a Scream spoof. He’s also a familiar face from the likes of Transformers and The Departed.
Marielle Jaffe meanwhile is far less well known. Her only on-screen role so far has been as one of the Aphrodite Girls in Percy Jackson, although she does have a supporting part in the upcoming teen thriller locked away.
Scream 4 starts shooting in Michigan at the end of the month, and will arrive in cinemas next spring.
