"Someone has taken their love of trilogies one step too far"

In a recent Halloween: H20 Interview, when asked
about the status of Scream 3, Kevin Williamson said: "I just
agreed this week to start writing it. We just struck my deal, so I
guess the other deals are starting to follow. I'll be done in April,
I'm guessing. We're planning on a December [1999] release."
When asked about Neve Campbell's return, he replied: "Well, I
guess she needs to wait to see if she has a character. If she
doesn't want to be in it, then we'll write it without her. The good
thing about SCREAM 3 is I've got three plans. There's the Sid
version, the Sid-less version, and....the bottom line is the story
itself doesn't rely so much on her character." What's the third
version, they asked: "(Smiling) I can't say. It's not so much about
Sidney anymore. It's about the world that was created with
"Stab." The story itself thematically works, regardless of who is
in it."

Yesterday, Neve Campbell was in a Australian Television and she said She will be not in Scream 3. Some of the reporters suspected, but time will only tell us the truth.

In a
recent interview, when Neve
Campbell was asked about her involvement in the third
part, she replied: "I'm sure Kevin Williamson,
who wrote the first two scripts, will make a great job of
it, but it's just that fear I have of being typecast.
I've really enjoyed these first two movies, and I'm very
proud of them, but I think I could easily become 'that
girl from the Scream movies' if I stuck around for the
third installment."

Neve Campbell plays it cagey when asked if
she'll do a third "Scream'' movie. "They've already offered me 10
times more money than I've ever made before but I can't answer
them yet,'' the actress told The Boston Globe. "That's frustrating
them but I'm committed to 'Party of Five' for two more seasons
and I'll only have time to make so many movies.'' Campbell also
says she doesn't want to be typecast.
