Miramax and Paramount are bringing the\u00a0Scary Movie franchise back to theaters with a new reboot movie, and Deadline<\/a> reports today that franchise veterans Anna Faris and Regina Hall will once again make magic together. Yes, they\u2019re both coming back for the Scary Movie reboot!<\/p>\n

The horror spoof franchise was developed by\u00a0Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans\u00a0and\u00a0Keenen Ivory Wayans, and the Wayans brothers are back to write the brand new movie!<\/p>\n

Anna Faris and Regina Hall said in a joint statement this afternoon, \u201cWe can\u2019t wait to bring Brenda and Cindy back to life and be reunited with our great friends Keenen, Shawn and Marlon\u2014three men we\u2019d literally die for (in Brenda\u2019s case, again.)\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Tiddes is directing the franchise\u2019s upcoming sixth installment, releasing on June 12, 2026, with Rick Alvarez writing and producing alongside the Wayans brothers.<\/p>\n

Marlon, Shawn and Keenen Wayans said in a recent statement, \u201cWe couldn\u2019t be more excited to be a part of the new\u00a0Scary Movie\u00a0and work with each other again. This is a franchise we created more than 20 years ago. We remember people laughing in the aisles and hope to see that happen again. We look forward to working with Jonathan Glickman and his team at the new Miramax to bring these laughs to theaters, where they belong. It\u2019s a double reunion.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first\u00a0Scary Movie\u00a0was released in 2000, just four years after Wes Craven reinvigorated the horror genre with his meta slasher masterpiece,\u00a0Scream. The film parodied horror movies of the time including\u00a0Scream,\u00a0I Know What You Did Last Summer, and\u00a0The Blair Witch Project, and the horror-comedy spoof scared up $278 million at the worldwide box office.<\/p>\n

The smash hit box office success of that first\u00a0Scary Movie\u00a0paved the way for an entire franchise of horror movie spoofs, with five of them in total released between 2000 and 2013.<\/p>\n

Like many franchises, the\u00a0Scary Movie\u00a0sequels became a series of diminishing returns in later years, but having the Wayans\u2019 back in the fold suggests that the franchise\u2019s sixth installment may mark a return to the quality of those first couple installments. And with so much new horror content to spoof here in the present day, we expect the brothers will have a blast.<\/p>\n
