Life Line Live from USA Today has just dropped a tantalizing rumor: Anna Paquin (True Blood) and Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars) might make cameo appearances in the highly anticipated Scream 4.

According to Cindy Clark, the newest installment in the iconic horror franchise is set to include “the usual celeb cameos,” with Paquin and Bell among the names being mentioned. The report also confirms that production has already begun in and around Ann Arbor, Michigan.

The Legacy Continues

Fans will be thrilled to hear that original cast members Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette are back to reprise their iconic roles as Sidney Prescott, Gale Riley, and Dewey Riley. With the original Scream debuting in 1996 and the trilogy raking in nearly $300 million domestically, the stakes are high for this fourth installment, set to hit theaters on April 15, 2011.

The Big Question: Sookie Stackhouse as the Next Casey Becker?

While the idea of Anna Paquin stepping into a role akin to Drew Barrymore’s unforgettable Casey Becker is purely speculative, it’s hard not to imagine the possibilities. Could Sookie Stackhouse face off with Ghostface? One can only dream!

And as for Kristen Bell? The queen of snark could bring her Veronica Mars wit to the Scream universe in a way that would leave fans screaming for more.
