I know a lot of people have been waiting for this day, myself included. Several years ago Jamie Lee Curtis made some very public comments stating that she wasn’t interested in doing another horror related project ever again. Luckily, the original queen of scream appears to have had a change of heart and is set to play one of the lead roles in Fox’s upcoming horror-comedy series, “Scream Queens.” Jamie, we have genuinely missed you!
What we’ve learned so far is that the first season of “Scream Queens,” due to premiere its first episode in September 2015, will focus on a college campus and a popular sorority that is being stalked my a serial killer. Scream 4 and “American Horror Story” alumni Emma Roberts will play the queen bee, Chanel, and Jamie Lee Curtis will put on her school dean sneakers – originally worn during Halloween: H20, as crusader Cathy Munsch. KeKe Palmer will play the brain of the sorority, Zayday, alongside Abigail Breslin, Ariana Grande and Billie Lourd as fellow sorority sisters. ,
Also, Nick Jonas and Glen Powell will play two rich boys from a fraternity on campus, with Glee’s Lea Michelle playing a scoliosis ailed nerd who’s desperate to fit in. During the show’s first episode, you’ll get to meet all of these characters… and rumor has it viewers will also get to see the killer, dressed as the school mascot, in action as he takes revenge for a college prank gone wrong 20 years earlier.
Slowly, I’m starting to get on board with this idea. My only complaint is now that we know all of this information, we have to wait six months to see how it all plays out!
