Paramount Pictures has unveiled an exciting collaboration with the powerhouse producer Neal H. Moritz, best known for his work on the "Fast and Furious" franchise. Together, they are set to breathe new life into the beloved "Scary Movie" series, which is slated to begin production in the fall of 2024 and hit theaters in 2025. This revival comes after the franchise went dormant following its 2013 installment, marking a thrilling resurgence for fans of horror-comedy.

With the resurgence of horror flicks like "Five Nights at Freddy’s," "Smile," and "M3GAN" drawing substantial audiences, there's ample fresh material for the "Scary Movie" team to satirize. Paramount's partnership with Miramax, the studio behind the original film series, further solidifies the project's potential success. Miramax will provide full financing for the production, while Paramount will handle distribution. Notably, Miramax is under new leadership, with former MGM chief Jonathan Glickman recently appointed as CEO.

Neal H. Moritz's involvement in "Scary Movie" adds another layer of excitement, particularly given his current projects. As an executive producer on "Knuckles," a six-episode original event series set in the world of "Sonic the Hedgehog 2," Moritz is deeply immersed in the world of entertainment. The series, debuting exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. on April 26, promises to captivate audiences with its fresh take on the beloved franchise.

Meanwhile, Moritz is also gearing up for the release of "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" on December 20, 2024, continuing his successful run as a producer on the "Sonic" film series. Additionally, he's spearheading the development of several feature film projects at Paramount, including an anticipated reboot of "Face/Off." With Moritz's track record of delivering high-octane entertainment, coupled with Paramount and Miramax's backing, the "Scary Movie" reboot is poised to be a blockbuster hit that will thrill audiences once again.
