Scream 4 is reportedly heading back to Northville, Michigan, for reshoots. While initially unconfirmed, new details from local sources suggest the production team is revisiting some key locations to enhance suspense and terror in the film’s opening sequence.
This isn’t the first time a Scream movie has undergone reshoots. Fans might remember that in January 2000, Wes Craven returned to film a revised ending for Scream 3. Now, history seems to repeat itself for the fourth installment of the iconic slasher series.
According to OnLocationVacations, a reader named Amy received a filming notice indicating activity in Northville, MI:
“A motion picture titled Z (the working title for Scream 4) is scheduled to shoot scenes on Clement St. between 7 Mile and Frederick on Jan. 31 and Feb. 2.”
NorthvillePatch later confirmed the reports, stating:
“On Jan. 31 and Feb. 1, the Scream 4 crew will reshoot parts of the film on Clement Street, with the Northville Square parking lot serving as the production’s base camp.”
Michelle Nabozny, executive secretary to Northville City Manager Patrick Sullivan, provided further context:
“It’s the same setup as before. The filming will primarily be indoors, and it’s unclear whether any of the cast members will be present. It could just involve lighting and special effects work.”
While the specifics remain under wraps, Nabozny hinted that the additional footage would focus on building suspense in the opening sequence:
“They’re coming back to do some additional suspense and terror for the opening sequence.”
This aligns with Wes Craven’s reputation for perfection, ensuring Scream 4 lives up to fan expectations.
The reshoots demonstrate the production team’s commitment to delivering a thrilling cinematic experience. With Scream 4 set to release on April 15, 2011, these last-minute touches might make all the difference.
