In the last decade, horror films have drawn record-breaking crowds and served as viral memes, so it was only a matter of time before the Scary Movie was rebooted — something that is now officially in the offing. While the original franchise lampooned iconic series like Scream and The Ring, modern audiences can all but assume they’ll get parodies of recent horror icons like M3GAN and Freddy Fazbear. No word yet, though, on whether Anna Faris and Regina Hall will reprise their roles as iconic duo Cindy Campbell and Brenda Meeks.
As one franchise from the early-aughts is reborn, Kirsten Dunst is of the opinion that the one she was involved with should remain in the past. After revealing that she was never asked to make an appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home’s franchise-meshing multiverse, the Civil War actress, who played MJ in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy, responded rather frankly about a potential return to the character. Although Dunst has said she would gladly accept a payday from a comic-book movie, she told IndieWire that a return to the Spiderverse would “really depend on the script” and that we should “leave things when they were good.”
Things are definitely good on the timeline today — really good, in fact. Today’s funniest tweets include those about the popcorn-bucket maker regretting his decision, a full-on Freudian faceplant and the telltale sign that you’re of drinking age.
