I’m also thankful the firstScream 2script got leaked because his original part was much less effective.

Matthew Lillard returned to Scream 2 for a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo.

But it is unconfirmed whether he was reprising the role of Stu Macher.

With anyone else, this would come off as a total slimeball move, but this is Liev Schreiber.

Furthermore, he has a point.

Cotton spent a year in jail, and all he’s basically asking for is a little recognition.

However, the script ended up leaking online, revealing the massive twist at the end of the movie.

Bibbiani claims that the script he had was a dummy.

Talk about having no murder-radar, Sidney.

Stu Macher & Ghostface in Scream.

Scream 2 continues the saga of Sidney Prescott, who faces a new series of murders while adjusting to college life. Released in 1997, the film follows her as a masked killer, donning the infamous Ghostface costume, resurfaces, reigniting fear and chaos among her and her friends.

It would then be revealed that Nancy Loomis was the puppet master behind everything.

you could read the entire script here for yourself:Scream.Fandom.

Thank Craven we didn’t go with this version though.

Cotton Weary (Liev Schreiber) talking intensely to Sidney (Neve Campbell) in Scream 2.

His biggest film up to that point was probablyThe Daytrippers.

Respectfully disagree, Mr. Williamson, as great a script asScream 2is.
