"What's your favorite scary movie?" the original Scream killer infamously questions Drew Barrymore's Casey Becker over the phone, his voice equally throaty and flirty. "You have to have a favorite, what comes to mind?" he continues, prompting the teen to reveal her top-tier horror flick (it's Halloween) before threatening her life.

This memorably haunting 1996 scene (which doesn't end well for Casey) jumpstarted the campy, bloody, beloved franchise we know today.

Directed by Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, the Scream franchise's sixth installment — aptly titled Scream VI — will hit U.S. theaters on March 10, 2023. The highly-anticipated film will see Ghostface terrorize New York City, as the four survivors of the latest Ghostface slayings "leave Woodsboro behind and start a fresh chapter" in the Big Apple.

Starring Jenna Ortega (Wednesday), Hayden Panettiere (Nashville), Samara Weaving (Ready or Not), Courteney Cox (Friends), Mason Gooding (Booksmart), Jasmin Savoy Brown (Yellowjackets), and Melissa Barrera (Vida), among others, Scream VI is said to be "potentially a hundred times gorier" than its 2022 predecessor, according to the latter star.

Is Scream 6 streaming on HBO Max?

Is Scream 6 Available Streaming on Paramount Plus

At the time of writing, there is no official streaming release date for Scream 6. However, if we look back at the gap between Scream (2022) hitting movie theaters, before becoming available to stream on Paramount Plus, we can make some guesses as to when it will be up for streaming.

Scream (2022) was released on January 14, before arriving on Paramount Plus on March 8. This means there were 53 days between the big screen release, and the streaming release. The film was also available to buy digitally a week before it landed on Paramount Plus, on March 1. With that in mind, we can expect Scream 6 to be available to stream on Paramount Plus around May 2, 2023.

Paramount Pictures has said in the past, however, that most of their films will be available to stream exclusively on Paramount Plus after a 45-day theatrical window. If this is the case for Scream 6, it may arrive earlier than expected, on or around April 24, 2023.

Is Scream 6 streaming on Prime Video?

Amazon Prime Video subscribers might be disappointed because ‘Scream 6’ is not a part of the streaming giant’s library. Alternatively, you have the option to turn to similar films using your subscription, including ‘Smile,' 'Bram Stoker's Dracula,' 'Let the Right One In.’ 

The bad news is that the movie is not likely to come to Prime Video. Paramount Pictures movies used to head to Amazon Prime Video about a year after the theatrical release, but that’s changed with a lot of movies recently. Instead of heading to Prime Video, they’ve gone to Paramount+.

Is Scream 6 Available On Hulu?

Viewers are saying that they want to view the new movie Scream 6 on Hulu. Unfortunately, this is not possible since Hulu currently does not offer any of the free episodes of this series streaming at this time. It will be exclusive to the MTV channel, which you get by subscribing to cable or satellite TV services. You will not be able to watch it on Hulu or any other free streaming service.

Is Scream VI Streaming Online?

Well, not right now. In terms of the streaming release, Scream VI will most likely follow the 45-day theatrical window before being available to stream online.

What Is Scream 6 About?

The original Scream from 1996 was one of the first horror movies to provide a “meta” experience in that the main characters were aware of common horror movie tropes and clichés. This allowed for comedic relief at times but also allowed characters to (try to) make smarter decisions as they attempted to figure out and stop whoever the Ghostface killer was.

Without giving away any serious spoilers from the 2022 version of Scream, which is the fifth installment of the franchise, the characters utilize their knowledge of horror movie tropes once again. They soon realize that the new murderer is making a “requel” or a “legacy-quel” of the fictional Stab films from previous installments, targeting characters who are in some way related to the characters from the original. In Mindy Meeks-Martin’s (Jasmin Savoy Brown) words, it’s basically “brand new characters being supported by legacy characters.”

Scream VI will pick up right where Scream (2022) ends, with the surviving Carpenter sisters Sam and Tara, and twins Mindy and Chad Meeks-Martin moving to New York City to escape Woosdboro and its twisted past. They plan to start fresh in a new city but are quickly dragged into yet another meta-slasher-whodunnit scenario when a new Ghostface starts killing people around them. Similar to other recent “whodunnit” movies like Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, fewer details surrounding the plot make the viewing experience better! The only solid clues we have to go off of are the cast members. Between “legacy” characters and new faces, who will be revealed as the new killer? Here's a synopsis of the film from Alamo Drafthouse:

 Following the latest Ghostface killings, the four survivors leave Woodsboro behind and start a fresh chapter. In SCREAM VI, Melissa Barrera (“Sam Carpenter”), Jasmin Savoy Brown (“Mindy Meeks-Martin”), Mason Gooding (“Chad Meeks-Martin”), Jenna Ortega (“Tara Carpenter”), Hayden Panettiere (“Kirby Reed”), and Courteney Cox (“Gale Weathers”) return to their roles in the franchise alongside Jack Champion, Henry Czerny, Liana Liberato, Dermot Mulroney, Devyn Nekoda, Tony Revolori, Josh Segarra, and Samara Weaving.

For those expecting Scream VI to be just another Scream movie, that certainly won't be the case as directors Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett told Collider that the film will go in directions that surprised even them:

 “I think it was such a surprise to have Scream come back, to be involved in it, and I think we just knew that for as warm and comforting and as homage-y as the last one was, we had to take a really hard left turn for the next one, just to keep ourselves interested, right? To keep ourselves engaged and surprised. That's always been the compass; what is thrilling and fun and exciting to us? And hopefully people love the same thing."

Who's In the Scream 6 Cast?

The cast list in any Scream movie is bound to be an ensemble situation, so we’ll break it down between new(ish) characters, “legacy” characters, and completely new characters to make it a little easier.

Jenna Ortega will reprise her role as Tara Carpenter. The titular star of Tim Burton’s Wednesday series is the newest addition to the “Scream Queen” hall of fame, thanks to her recent performances in the latest Scream movie, Studio 666, The Babysitter: Killer Queen, and Ti West’s A24 horror, X.

Melissa Barrera will return in Scream VI as Sam Carpenter, Tara’s older sister. Her controversial lineage from the 2022 film makes her both a possible suspect and a potential victim in the newest film. Aside from the most recent Scream movie, Barrera is best known for her role as Liv Rivera in the television miniseries Keep Breathing. She also starred in the musical In The Heights as Vanessa, alongside Broadway’s Hamilton star, Anthony Ramos.

Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding will also be returning as twins Mindy and Chad Meeks-Martin, joining the Carpenter sisters in New York City. As Randy Meeks’ (Jamie Kennedy) niece and nephew, they also have a blood connection to one of the original film’s tragic victims. Gooding is best known as Andrew from the television series Love, Victor. Jasmin Savoy Brown is best known as the teenaged version of Taissa in Showtime’s television series Yellowjackets, which will have its second season premiere in late March 2023.

Courtney Cox maintains her role as Gale Weathers, the only character to have appeared in every installment of the Scream franchise. The Friends star initially started out as a secondary antagonist, before joining ranks with Sydney Prescott and falling in (and out of) love with David Arquette’s Scream character, Dewey.

Another Scream franchise alumni, Hayden Panettiere will return as Kirby Reed. Panettiere’s character in Scream 4 was considered an unconfirmed victim until the 2022 Scream revealed an Easter Egg surprise that her character survived after all. On August 6th, shortly before filming wrapped for Scream VI, she was seen on a set photo with Jasmin Savoy Brown, confirming her character’s return to the franchise.

As far as new faces go, Devyn Nekoda (Sneakerella), Josh Segarra (She-Hulk: Attorney at Law), Liana Liberato (If I Stay), Jack Champion (Avatar: The Way of Water), and Tony Revolori (Spider-Man: No Way Home) will be introduced as new friends (or enemies) from New York City as Alison, David, Carly, and Gabe, respectively. Joined by Ready or Not’s lead actress, Samara Weaving, it’s still unclear what roles these characters will play in the newest Scream installment. Weaving’s character has not been named at the time, adding more mystery to her involvement.

In addition to these new characters, Dermot Mulroney (My Best Friend’s Wedding) will be joining the cast as police officer Williams, possibly taking the place of Dewey Riley. Accompanying him is Canadian actor Henry Czerny, who will be playing a character known as “Professor Freddie.” Czerny is best known for his role as Tony in Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett’s previous film, Ready or Not.

Last, but certainly not least, the voice of the Ghostface killer will be the voice of Roger L. Jackson. Jackson has voiced the masked murderer in every Scream-related project since the 1996 original, as well as the 2019 spinoff television series, Scream: Resurrection.

Unfortunately, Sidney Prescott herself, Neve Campbell will not be returning to the sequel after a dispute involving her pay.
