    David Arquette Admits to Having 'Really Hard Time' Missing Wes Craven

    WENN/Sheri Determan

    Reprising his role as Dewey Riley in ‘Scream 5′, the ex-husband of Courteney Cox insists to feel the present of his late pal on the set as he listened to the latter’s favorite music in between scenes.

    Nov 11, 2020
    AceShowbiz – David Arquette has been having a “really hard time” grappling with the loss of his “Scream” director Wes Craven after returning to the horror franchise for a new sequel.
    The actor has reunited with his real-life ex-wife, Courteney Cox, and Neve Campbell onscreen for “Scream 5”, but filming without Craven has been rough.
    He shared his heartache in an interview with Britain’s The Independent, after he was reminded of a 1997 quote Craven had shared about the star, noting he was “definitely in pain” during the filming of the first four movies.
    “When I’m around him, I feel this enormous sense of pain and longing for a simpler world – for love,” the director added at the time.
    The 49-year-old grew emotional hearing the words of his old friend, who died in 2015, and said, “I’m sorry. I’ve been having a really hard time lately missing him.”

    “That’s such a beautiful thing to say,” Arquette continued. “And, you know, I was tortured. My mother was dying around that time, so that was a really difficult and dark period.”
    “And it’s true,” he added. “I do, like, long for a world of love.”
    Arquette reprises his role as Dewey Riley in “Scream 5”, the first in the film series not directed by Craven, but the actor insists his presence was felt on set as he listened to the late legend’s favourite music in between scenes, and scrolled through his old Twitter account.
    He explained he even began “looking up old tweets and who he followed because I wanted to follow who he followed.”
    The fifth “Scream” film is being directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett of the filmmaking group Radio Silence.
    It’s set for release in January, 2022.

    Dimension Films

    Production for the fifth instalment of the horror movie franchise is expected to begin in Wilmington, North Carolina in late 2020 with Tyler Gillett serving behind the lens.
    May 19, 2020
    AceShowbiz – David Arquette has confirmed the “Scream” movie franchise is heading back to the big screen with him reprising his cop character Sheriff Dewey Riley.
    The actor, who portrayed Riley in all four “Scream” movies, has revealed he’ll be reuniting with his “Scream family” once the coronavirus lockdown is over.
    “I am thrilled to be playing Dewey again…,” he says. “Scream has been such a big part of my life, and for both the fans and myself, I look forward to honouring (late creator) Wes Craven’s legacy.”
    Movie bosses at Spyglass Entertainment are in talks with more cast members with a view to adding them to the fifth “Scream” instalment, which will begin production in Wilmington, North Carolina later this year. Tyler Gillett will direct.
    Neve Campbell and Matthew Lillard have both recently expressed interest in returning to the “Scream” franchise, with Lillard telling Entertainment Tonight he’s up for bringing back his character, Stuart, even though he was killed by Campbell’s Sidney Prescott in the first film back in 1996.
    “I would love to come back,” he said. “Actors, for the most part, most of us are out here tap dancing as fast as we can to feed our families and get jobs. So if there was a chance to come back, that made sense, yes.”
    Campbell previously told The Hollywood Reporter, “We’re just in the beginning phases of negotiations, and we’ll have to see where it goes with Covid and everything. There are a lot of things up in the air.”
