The recently released Scream 6 originally had a very different script, with Sam actor Melissa Barrera explaining how she helped make changes.
Keeping with the tradition of the slasher franchise, Melissa Barrera reveals Scream 6 originally had a very different script. The latest chapter of the horror series saw the survivors of its 2022 predecessor, including Barrera's Sam and her sister Tara, played by Wednesday breakout Jenna Ortega, leave Woodsboro behind for New York City, only to once again become the target for a new Ghostface killer.
When asked about the collaborative process on the sequel, the Sam actor revealed that Scream 6 originally had a very different script, which initially caused her some concern for how it handled her character, leading to a very productive meeting with the movie's directors and writers. See what Barrera shared in the video above and quotes below:
And I think the thing about Matt and Tyler being so great is that when I first spoke to them after reading the first draft, I was like, ‘These are my concerns and I really want the audiences to get to know Sam more,’ you know? The fans are already in love with so many characters that you need to give them a lot and open up a lot to them for them to let you in, and I really wanted that, and they were 100% on board. And they also wanted that for all the characters.
