To avoid spoilers, different versions of the script were developed. We do know that it will not be a complete reboot.

Drew Barrymore (Scream original) interviewed Courteney Cox last month, that addressed the nature of the sequel:

“It’s not a reboot, it’s not a remake, it’s just a brand new launch.” “I believe it will be fantastic.”
