Recently speaking with TooFab about the Scream franchise, Lillard was directly asked if he’d be open to appearing in the upcoming fifth movie.
Original Scream star Matthew Lillard says he’s “absolutely” available to reprise his role for the upcoming sequel Scream 5, even if the prospect seems unlikely.
Oddly enough, the idea of bringing Stu back into the Scream series this way had actually been considered by Wes Craven many years ago.
Digging a little deeper into the behind-the-scenes history of the Scream franchise, Lillard has previously said that an original treatment for Scream 3 included a twist ending of Stu controlling the murders from his jail cell, similarly revealing the character to have survived the original Scream.
