Ghostface makes a ‘welcome’ return in the Scream requel.
WES CRAVEN’S SCREAM 2 shouldn’t have worked, according to Tyler Gillett, the co-director of the franchise’s latest instalment. “[Before seeing it] I remember feeling like there was no more gas in the tank, they’d already driven it so hard,” he tells Empire. Yet when he watched it, it did work. “The challenge that Wes and Kevin [Williamson, screenwriter] were having in trying to live up to the expectations of the first film was playing out on screen. It was such a wonderful way to let the audience in.”
