The Wayans brothers (Marlon, Shawn, and Keenen) are writing an original script for a "Scary Movie" reboot, which will be the sixth installment in the series. The reboot was announced at CinemaCon in April. Rick Alvarez will co-write and produce alongside the Wayans Bros.
The franchise was developed by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans and Keenen Ivory Wayans. Keenen Ivory Wayans wrote and directed the first two films, while Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans wrote and starred in the first two films. The brothers were not involved in the fourth or fifth films.
The brothers had this to say about the project: "We couldn't be more excited to be a part of the new 'Scary Movie' and 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’s a double reunion."
Miramax CEO Glickman also added: "We are thrilled to reunite 'Scary Movie' with the Wayans brothers, the brilliant creators behind the beloved franchise. The timing is perfect to bring back the series to the big screen and we're lucky to have Keenen, Marlon and Shawn's unique comedic vision bringing it to audiences around the world."
The new "Scary Movie" will be released in theaters. Filming is expected to begin in 2025. Paramount Pictures is releasing worldwide. Becky Sloviter is overseeing for Miramax. "Scary Movie" is part of Paramount Pictures' first look deal with Miramax.
Marlon Wayans can next be seen in Justin Tipping's psychological sports thriller "Him" produced by Jordan Peele's Monkeypaw Productions, which is coming out in September 2025.
