This morning,SCREAMstarsNeve CampbellandDavid Arquetteappeared onGood Morning Americato discuss the upcoming sequel and revealed a new clip from the highly-anticipated slasher movie. The clip features Campbell as final girl Sidney Prescott and Arquette as lawman Dewey Riley, as the two classic characters reconnect for a bloody reason.
Dewey calls Sidney to warn her Ghostface is back and on a new killing spree in the clip. Sidney is obviously distressed by the call, but Dewey cannot wait for her to process the news. Instead, the lawman asks Sidney if she has a gun, as he expects the new Ghostface to go after the oldest surviving victim of the original serial killer.
Besides showing up the new clip, Campbell and Arquette also discussed how they feel about returning to the franchise a decade after the release ofScream 4, back in 2011. Both stars said they feel comfortable going back to their fan-favorite roles and underlined how good it feels to reunite with the original cast once again. Campbell even compared the experience to “going back to summer camp”, since working on the franchise has been “a blast” since the first movie.
