Scream VI, the latest film of the ghostface horror franchise, is now playing in theaters and has already brought in $43.5 million during opening weekend. Scream VI sees the survivors from Scream V (2022), Tara (Jenna Ortega), Sam (Melissa Barrera), Mindy (Jasmin Savoy Brown), and Chad (Mason Gooding) facing yet another ghostface killer hunting them. OG Scream star Courteney Cox also returns in Scream VI as Gale Weathers, and Hayden Panettiere reprises her role as Kirby Reed from Scream 4. There are also several newcomers including Jack Champion, Dermot Mulroney, Henry Czerny, Liana Liberato, Devyn Nekoda, Josh Segarra, Samara Weaving, and Tony Revolori.
We were recently joined on the Popternative show by Devyn who plays Anika, Mindy’s new girlfriend. Devyn discusses what it’s like to be part of the Scream franchise, and we also asked her about the audition process for her role. She explains how she didn’t actually know she was auditioning for a Scream movie when she sent in her self tape:
They were being pretty secretive about it so I didn’t know that I was auditioning for Scream. So I sent in this audition, I was pretty sure I filmed it with my boyfriend, didn’t really do my makeup, I feel like I didn’t put that much effort into my audition now that I’m looking back at it. And then my manager calls and she’s like “so you have a call-back, and by the way this is for Scream” and I’m like “are you kidding me! Why didn’t anyone tell me this!” They’re like “we didn’t want to freak you out so we kept it lowkey.”
