Known for satirizing horror flicks, the Scary Movie films launched with the first title hitting theaters in 2000 before spawning four sequels. Paramount is handling global distribution for the forthcoming film through its first-look deal with producer Miramax, which distributed the first three features.
Starring Faris as Cindy and Hall as Brenda, the first Scary Movie opened in July 2000 with $42 million at the domestic box office. The title set records for the biggest opening weekend for an R-rated horror film and a Black director. Marlon and Shawn Wayans starred in the first two movies, while Keenen Ivory Wayans wrote and helmed the projects.
Wayans Jr. is represented by UTA, Ziffren Brittenham and Johnson Shapiro. Kim Wayans is repped by KFM Management. Gardner is repped by CAA, OPE Partners and Hansen Jacobson. Oteri is repped by Brave Artists Management and Goodman Genow. Elliott is repped by UTA and Vault Entertainment.
Deadline was first to report on the latest cast additions.
