'Ghostface in the Big Apple' - Jenna Ortega stars in 'Scream 6' shaking up franchise

"Scream 6": Jenna Ortega and Ghostface Take a Bite Out of The Big Apple

With the drop of the adrenaline-fueled trailer for 'Scream 6', fans were given their first horrifying glimpse into Ghostface's newest playground - New York City. The trailer teases an unforgettable ride on a subway car filled with masked Halloween-goers, where our notorious slasher is more than ready to spread terror. The film's star Jenna Ortega is back, taking a juicy bite out of the Big Apple in this spine-tingling sequel to 2022's 'Scream'.

"Horror Meets Manhattan"

Giving the franchise a fresh setting, 'Scream 6' moved the slasher action to NYC, as reported by Polygon. The shift promised new thrills as the iconic horror series invades a bustling city known more for bright lights than fright nights. But Ghostface isn't the first monstrous entity to stalk Manhattan's streets (remember Jason Voorhees?), raising curiosity about how this change of scenery will play into the franchise’s signature meta element.

Radio Silence Continues Craven's Legacy

In the wake of horror legend Wes Craven's death in 2015, the reins of the 'Scream' franchise were handed over to the talented duo of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who form part of the horror team Radio Silence along with executive producer Chad Villella. This makes 'Scream 6' the second installment not involving Craven, stoking intrigue about the continuation of his legendary horror legacy.

There's no doubt that 'Scream 6' is primed to deliver the chills and thrills fans crave, as Ghostface turns the city that never sleeps into the city that never screams... alone. And with Jenna Ortega back in the mix, you can be sure there will be plenty of screams heard all the way from Broadway to Brooklyn.
