Drew Barrymore Recalls How "Scream" Was a Game-Changer for Horror Films | The Drew Barrymore Show

dang I didn't know Drew basically helped construct "Scream" into what it turned out to be, and to do that at 20 years old is pretty impressive
I know right?! But I don´t quite fully understand, did she direct Scream?
@@Deisi666no, but she did play a hand in getting legendary horror genre director Wes Craven to sign on to direct what became one of the genre’s signature film franchises. She also gave up the lead role of Sydney, which went to Neve Campbell instead. What she got was one of the iconic opening scenes in 1990s film, and the audience was shocked seeing a star of Drew’s caliber being killed off in the first scene. As Drew and Christine Taylor explain here though, it was all really a jump off point for Drew’s production company to get started, and it supported many of her projects that came later like Never Been Kissed and Charlie’s Angels.
@bernardwylie9760 Yes I got all of that but thank you for your thorough explanation 😊
I just thought I heard her say that she had a part in directing Scream, but i guess i misunderstood 😆
I first saw Scream at like 10 years old and I'm now a full grown adult -which by the way ew! 😆 - and I've seen all the Scream movies and can't wait for the next one.
Also means she had to deal with Harvey Weinstein. Scream could have been a better experience if he didn’t purchase the script
It wouldn't have made 100 million dollars at the box office and nobody else would have distributed the movie. The scream franchise was enormous for dimension films. 300 million. That was what the female producer of scream said. Harvey weinstein was the only game in town when it came to making independent films in the 1990s
Saw it in theaters and it was incredibly shocking. Very smart move by Drew. No one expected it. Such a masterpiece of filmmaking.
Imagine if drew was the main character instead of being killed off in the opening scene. Drew made a smart choice. I don’t think the film would have been successful if drew was the main character
At the time, she actually admitted she was just worried the film would flop (since horror was dead at that point) and it'd ruin her career so she suggested playing that role to play it safe. And Wes was depressed that they lost their star so she promised she'd promote it the same way she would if she was the lead... and then Wes realized it would make the audience not know what to expect if they killed off the projected star attachment... so it wasn't her genuine foresight that made her change roles. She just sells it like that today, out of respect for the film.
I was right there with you. I remember leaving the theatre just glowing cause it was so good!
"It's Drew Barrymore. There's no way she's gonna get killed." 100% my mindset watching that movie back then. She was on all the posters, almost front and center and at the time, was the biggest name in the cast. What a shocking, amazing opening for the entire franchise.
Drew in SCREAM was an absolute game changing now ICONIC scene. Everything about it just legendary.
I watched Scream sooooo many times.. Never Been Kissed.. especially Charlie’s Angel’s ! She was such a big part of my childhood ! Love her so much 💕
Drew was great in the beginning of Scream. The acting was perfect the house was perfect the direction was perfect. It’s one of the best 10 minutes in all of film. Everything worked in that scene.
That movie really re-charged Wes Craven's career...brought him back into the mainstream in a big way.
Casey Becker is absolutely iconic! Thank you for bringing Wes to my favourite horror series ever :)
Drew is a good Producer! She has good instincts about people!
I also do remember working on that project way back then. Im talking about the Scream . Yes, Drew is telling completely the truth of the real behind the scene , the real pre - production initial stage . She gets killed off was her very original idea. 😂👍
drew barrymore is a true creative genius ❤
People forget that Drew was on her way out in Hollywood at this time. Shocking, yes. But Drew was not the same Drew of today. She was totally being dismissed as a Lindsay Lohan of the 90s.
Well, not by everyone. Drew has always been like a little butterfly going from flower to flower to flower. I think this show of hers is the longest she’s ever done one thing!
Scream is hands down my fave movie !
I love this franchise ❤
Drew produce so many of my favorite movies. Never been kissed is CLASSIC! But I am most grateful for her production of Donnie Darko!
I'll forever be a Drew Barrymore fan!
I remember working at the movie theater and when this came out we hadn’t seen drew in a whole lot of films and I watched this movie with all my coworkers before it even came out and I was sooo floored to see how they killed her off right at the beginning. Iconic!!! Genius idea, I love this movie and it was the “Halloween & Friday the 13th” of our time in the late 90s.
We love your show drew barrymore
Her scene is forever Iconic
Drew really got her life turned around & made something of herself. 👍👍
I loved Hey Dude and had a huge crush on David.
A Little The Wedding Singer reunion. 😊
Brilliant!!!
I’ve never heard this story. So cool. It’s different from I heard in 1996 and from what Wes Craven said so this is def interesting 😊
Curious if Wes Craven liked the script when he first read it. It really was pretty different from what he was doing at the time, and before.
Scream is still GOAT. Drew was amazing. Also Hey Dude 🤩🤩🤩 i loved that show as a kid
Her scene in Scream made me love horror movies again in the 90’s.
I read from more sources she was considered for an Oscar nom and honestly it would have been well deserved.....
The writing was brilliant but Drew's character's progress from being a flirt to a victim fighting for her life..... Brilliant!
It’s been almost 30 years and it’s still such an iconic scene in horror and pop culture. Even today at a costume party you could pass any girl in a blonde bob wig covered in blood and you’d immediately say: “Oh, you’re Drew Barrymore in SCREAM!”
I loved Hey Dude! growing up. So glad to see they're talking about it and bringing it back into the zeitgeist a little. Also, I LOVE that it was Drew who chose Wes Craven and helped get this movie made. Amazing.
SCREAM is and will always be my favorite Horror Franchise
I have said this so many times: those opening 13 minutes of Scream were so important for her career.
Fascinating how she manuevered this film into being.
Omg i Love Scream!! Never Been Kissed, Ever After Doppelganger!! Omg Christine Taylor is awaome too!! Loved her in the Brady Movies as Marcia Brady. I remember her in tv adaption of Party Girl.
Drew should’ve been nominated for her role in Scream. That “Scream” opening is not regarded as one of the best ever, only because of the genre of the movie. Drew as Casey Becker was Oscar worthy.
I honestly would like her to play in a horror movie again. Would be great tbh.
Went to the movies and saw this movie because Drew was in the movie when she gets killed first the way it was done!!! I was hooked in!!!!!!!!! Great and smart move !!!
Drew plz give us Charlie’s angels 3 PLEASE GOD!! ❤❤❤😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
hey dude!!
Funny she wound back to Charlie's Angels. When she was telling her cast switch idea for Scream, it reminded me how Kate Jackson, who helped with CA's setup, was supposed to be Kelly , but she thought it more interesting to have the most sophisticated one (Smith) play the scrappy streetwise orphan. Both ladies were very right.
Picture this... Scream 7 starts with Casey Becker (Drew Barrymore) walking out of Woodsboro High School, Sidney walks by with Tatum you overhear her talking about Billy. She's crossing the road and a car almost hits her, behind the wheel of the car we see a hand with a diamond ring. The car swerves around and beeps as Sidney notices and rolls her eyes, "what's wrong with people?"
Flash forward to today, Sidney moves back to Woodsboro and is dropping off her daughter at Woodsboro High School, a car is following Sidney home and tries to run her off the road. Behind the wheel is the same Diamond ring. She gets home and finds her house is ransacked and a mask of ghost face sits on her counter top with the note... "watch your back..Sidney."
I have to confess something.
I saw scream in a cinema when it got out.
When he ask you if you know who is the killer in "Friday the 13th" and you answer wrong I yelled at you terrible words
Incredible that Drew was actually booked to play Neve Campbell’s part and she chose to play Casey Becker instead!
✨💖✨😍✨🤩💥

She really was not a B movie actress though. She was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance in Gun Crazy in 1993. She had a funny cameo appearance in Wayne’s World 2 in 1994. She had a starring role in the movie Bad Girls in 1994, which was, despite bad reviews, a big production that had a large movie release. Boys On The Side and Mad Love both were big productions backed by major studio’s that turned a profit as well. Batman Forever, despite her small role, was very successful as well! She was definitely not a b movie actress during the the Summer of 1996 when Scream was filmed! I appreciate her modesty though!
To be fair, Gun Crazy was a B movie, as well as Poison Ivy. But yeah, all the other films you mention were big studio releases. For having such a difficult and tumultuous childhood, she certainly turned out to be a very thoughtful and grounded person.
@@halcyonlightvibes2023 Gun Crazy was a game changer though. Critics really loved her performance in that movie. Poison Ivy was trashy, but that movie also received good reviews as well. Doppelgänger, on the other hand, was a b movie for sure
Do they mention The Craft, the teen horror movie that preceded Scream and pretty much laid he foundation for the teen horror movie cycle of the late 90s? I mention it because Christine Taylor starred in that film as a enjoyably loathesome Laura Lizzie.
Omg it’s Josh from Sabrina the teenage witch.
I didn’t know she came to Wes with the script
The thing I remember from the movie "Scream" is that Ms. Barrymore's sweater didn't seem to keep her very warm.
Pigeon holed hahahaha
Funny how that was considered a "B movie" at the time? Like WHAAAT??? 💀😳
Who is the guy on the couch talking? He looks so familiar
He was in Hey Dude on nickelodeon.
And he played Josh In Sabrina The Teenage Witch
Enough of the Scream talk. I want someone to talk to her about Doppelgänger 😆
Wasnt she only in it for like 60 seconds lol i always have to be reminded she was in it. I also wasnt a fan of any of those movies.
What is really cool is that Christine Taylor was in a series called Party Girl (1996) based on the movie Party Girl (1995) starring Parker Posey. Parker Posey was in Scream 3.
