Courtney Cox spoke during a group interview at the Television Critics Association summer press tour in Pasadena, Calif., where she was promoting her ABC show Cougar Town. Cox said the upcoming fourth installment will take place 10 years after the third film ended in 2000.

“She has a kid now,” Cox said. “She’s married to Dewey.” I guess I need to rewatch the third film because according Sci Fi Wire, Scream 3 ended with Deputy Dewey proposing to local newswoman-turned-true-crime guru Gale. The also are report that Cox and Williamson both beginning new shows this season, Williamson expects to turn in a final draft for Scream 4 during hiatus and make final deals with cast and directors after that.
Neve Campbell and Jamie Kennedy are too busy in obscurity to reprise their roles. Seriously, they both apparently turned the film down.
