Universal announces plans for a new classic monster movie – and the Scream 6 directors are involved

Scream 6

Scream 6 directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett have lined up their next horror project. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the pair have signed on to develop a new Classic Monster movie for Universal, alongside their fellow Radio Silence producer Chad Villella.

The Hole in the Ground scribe Stephen Shields is said to have written the script, with revisions made by Guy Bisick, who previously collaborated with Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett on Ready or Not, Scream, and Scream 6. For now, details remain under wraps, but THR does suggest that the film was called Dracula's Daughter at one point, and was set to follow a group of serial kidnappers who get more than they bargained for when they inadvertently abduct the bloodsucking offspring of the titular vampire.
