The production of Scream 5 is pushing forward, adapting to the challenges of COVID-19 as Hollywood navigates a new era of filmmaking.
As the film industry slowly resumes operations, Scream 5 is at the forefront of new health and safety measures. The production follows strict COVID-19 protocols, including:

According to Deadline, three crew members tested positive for COVID-19:
