Netflix today revealed a teaser video and premiere date for the next Fear Street installment, Fear Street: Prom Queen which takes us back to 1988. Directed and co-written by Matt Palmer (Calibre), it is based on R.L. Stine’s 1992 Fear Street book, The Prom Queen. The film will premiere globally on Netflix on May 23.
The cast includes India Fowler (The Agency), Suzanna Son (Red Rocket), Fina Strazza (Paper Girls), Chris Klein (Sweet Magnolias), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty), Ella Rubin (The Idea of You), Ariana Greenblatt (Barbie), Lili Taylor (The Conjuring), Katherine Waterson (Inherent Vice), Darrin Baker (Painkiller), Rebecca Ablack (Ginny & Georgia), Ilan O’Driscoll, Damian Romeo (Ginny & Georgia), Dakota Taylor (Sullivan’s Crossing), Eden Summer Gilmore (Family Law), Brennan Clost (Tiny Pretty Things), Cecilia Lee (My Dreams of You), and Ryan Rosery (Mayor of Kingstown).
The logline reads, “Welcome back to Shadyside. In this next installment of the blood-soaked Fear Street franchise, prom season at Shadyside High is underway and the school’s wolfpack of It Girls is busy with its usual sweet and vicious campaigns for the crown. But when a gutsy outsider puts herself in the running, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.”
“We’re back in Shadyside and the year is 1988,” director and co-writer Matt Palmer tells Tudum. “With Senior Prom just two days away the race for prom queen is already heating up, but when somebody starts slaughtering the prom queen candidates, all hell is set to break loose. Think classic 80s slasher and all the fun that entails, but with compelling characters, needle drops, dancing and a whole lot more!”
