The full-length trailer for Scream VI has been released, giving us our first glimpse at Hayden Panettiere’s character, Kirby Reed, in action.
In contrast to earlier instalments, Ghostface is now stalking the cast, which includes Jenna Ortega, Melissa Barrera, and Courteney Cox, through the streets of New York.
The Woodsboro group discovers a’shrine’ to the creepy killer in the disturbing new teaser, with the next figure in the costume hellbent on keeping their legend alive – albeit with a different mask.
Although it is unclear how Kirby meets the survivors of the last adventure, she tells them, ‘We share a certain history…’
‘This isn’t like any other Ghostface,’ she warns as they search the bizarre lair.
Gale antagonises the killer on a routine phone call, warning them that it ‘never works out for the dips**t under the mask’.
‘Maybe… But there has never been one like me, Gale,’ they hit back. ‘I’m something different.’
Fortunately, we won’t have to wait long to find out if Ghostface is correct, since the slasher reaches theatres on March 10.
On Wednesday, new images revealed a thoughtful Kirby wearing a leather jacket. Needless to say, stans have since lit up Twitter.
Hayden, 33, said last year that she directly called Scream executives and begged if her character, who last appeared in 2011’s Scream 4, could return.
Fans were divided for a long time after Kirby was stabbed by Rory Culkin’s character Charlie Walker at the end of the fourth film.
Kirby’s return to Woodsboro was announced by Paramount in May 2022, effectively ending the controversy.
Unfortunately, Neve Campbell already stated that she would not be reprising her role as Sidney Prescott owing to a salary disagreement.
Now, Entertainment Weekly has released additional photographs of Tara, Sam, Mindy, and Chad, as well as a first look at 2023 Kirby. ‘She’s come a long way,’ Hayden stated to the site when asked what we may anticipate from Kirby this time around.
‘What happened to her has obviously impacted her life, and it sends her in a certain direction, but she’s still the same old Kirby at the heart of it. She’s just a little older, a little wiser, but just as spitfire-y, and snarky, and all that good stuff.’
Twitter was flooded with excitement over Kirby’s return on Wednesday, with one person writing: ‘Kirby the queen, the iconic!’
Another echoed: ‘hayden back as kirby in scream is a blessing. we really won!’
Other comments included: ‘Queen Kirby is back’, ‘New Scream movie is a 10/10 for Kirby’s return alone’ and ‘She’s finally coming!’
Scream VI is released in cinemas on March 10.
