“Scary Movie,” the comedy franchise that parodied horror movies like “Scream” and “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” is getting rebooted. It’s in the works at Miramax and Paramount, the companies announced Tuesday.

The Wayans brothers are reuniting for the first time in 18 years to write an original script for the restart of the franchise. The Wayans brothers and Rick Alvarez will write and produce. 

“Scary Movie” was one of the highest-grossing R-rated horror movies of all time. The film opened at $42.5 million, the biggest opening for an R-rated horror movie and a Black director at that time.
