The new Scream movie is going to miss the 25th anniversary of the original Scream (watch it HERE) by just a couple weeks, as it’s not going to be reaching theatres until January 14, 2022. But that’s okay, because before Paramount Pictures puts the new Scream out into the world, they’re going to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Wes Craven’s 1996 classic with a new home video release! The trailer embedded above promotes the fact that the Scream 4K Ultra HD arrives October 19th (buy it HERE) and is also getting a 4K steelbook release (get that HERE) and a new standard Blu-ray release (that’s HERE) on that date.
The discs will include
a brand-new look back at the film and director Wes Craven, featuring archival behind-the-scenes footage and new interviews with stars Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette, as well as screenwriter Kevin Williamson and the directors and other cast members from the new installment in the franchise scheduled to premiere in theaters in 2022 from Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Media Group.
Special features:

Scream (1996) has the following synopsis:
Wes Craven re-invented and revitalised the slasher-horror genre with this modern horror classic, which manages to be funny, clever and scary, as a fright-masked knife maniac stalks high-school students in middle-class suburbia. Craven is happy to provide both tension and self-parody as the body count mounts – but the victims aren’t always the ones you’d expect.
The Scream 4K, steelbook, and Blu-ray art can be seen below.
