Radio silence film7/12/2023 If they felt uncomfortable or unsafe or they wanted their stunty to fly in, that was totally fine. I think the other thing that was a really significant ingredient in the choreography and the reason those scenes feel the way they feel is because I think the cast knew going in, and we had many conversations with them going into this, that what was on the page we were really going to do what was on the page. Tyler Gillett: Max was an actor first so, we were able to talk with him on a performance level as well and not just a stunt level. Can you talk about choreographing those scenes? Speaking on the stunt performances, what was executed were some of the most impressive fight scenes I’ve seen in the entire franchise. Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Media Group’s “Scream VI.” It was like alchemy that just kind of happened. He kind of just took it to another level and the script was taking it to another level so it just kind of all was working out. He’s got a slightly different form than the previous Ghostface. It really was this evolving thing on how far can we go with this and still make sure it feels like Ghostface but how far can we go with this? The other piece of that puzzle was Max Laferriere, the stunt performer who embodied Ghostface in this movie. That just changes the tenor of the entire movie. The first time we really saw that in the script was when you get to the bodega scene and you’re like, oh, I’m sorry, Ghostface has a shotgun now? Okay. Just by proxy that became oh, Ghostface is going to be more violent. Our instinct was like, cool, we’re gonna shoot this more gritty, a little more raw than we did on Scream V. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin: I think it goes with New York, right? That was kind of part and parcel with going to New York. What was the decision process in showcasing Ghostface as this bigger force to reckon with? Far more intimidating and far more violent, which I personally loved. Obviously, there are the big iconic touristy places but our experience with New York, having been there a bunch of times, knowing people that are from there and live there, those everyday things give the city its true identity and we wanted to make sure that the movie really went there and explored all of those geographically. We really wanted to make sure that the movie feels like it exists in everyday locations because those are the things that make New York, New York. Going to Montreal, how do we represent such an iconic city, honestly, in an authentic way. We learned very quickly how prohibitive it is to shoot in New York, mostly for cost reasons. Tyler Gillett: One of the challenges was that obviously, we wanted to shoot in New York. Before we had read the script, the only tidbit of information we got was that Guy Busick and James Vanderbilt had set it in New York. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin: That was the first thing we heard about this. Was it always meant to be in New York City? Thank you all for chatting with me today! To start, SCREAM VI takes place in the city that never sleeps. During their chat, they discussed everything from turning Montreal into New York City, showcasing a more violent, intimidating Ghostface, and their favorite scenes from the film. Prior to the release of SCREAM VI, Nightmarish Conjurings’ Shannon McGrew spoke with directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, as well as producer Chad Villella, aka the trio that makes up Radio Silence. This time Ghostface is coming for the Big Apple. But, as we all know, Ghostface’s job is never done and the terror Ghostface left in Woodsboro has now returned. SCREAM VI l Paramount PicturesIn SCREAM VI, the sequel to the requel, we pick up where the last film left off as we follow our four survivors, Sam Carpenter (Melissa Barrera), Tara Carpenter (Jenna Ortega), Mindy Meeks-Martin (Jasmin Savoy Brown) and Chad Meeks-Martin (Mason Gooding) leaving Woodsboro behind to start a fresh chapter in New York City.
