By now, most of you have heard that the Scream franchise is rising from the ashes, with original castmembers Courteney Cox, Neve Campbell, and David Arquette attached to finish the job they started.

What you didn't know, and what we have just learned ourselves, is that this comeback is to usher in a brand new TRILOGY of Scream movies, with some brand new faces added to the mix.

Kevin Williamson, writer of the original and upcoming Scream flicks, provided some more details as to what audiences will see in the next installments:

"It'll take place right now, 10 years later, and it's going to take place in [Sidney Prescott's hometown of] Woodsboro. We'll have our three main characters, and we'll be introducing several more…We'll also be introducing a little group, a little ensemble of new castmembers. That'll take us through the next three."

Scream 4, which is being coincidingly written with Scream 5, will be somewhat spoof-heavy, as it seems clear that being "self-referential" is no longer plausible.

Kevin explains:

"I guess I'll just have to be very aware of the fact that we're a '4' and that we're beating a dead dog. I'm going to make that very apparent in the dialogue… Come on. It's the age of the remake! And 3-D and all that [other horror fad material], can you imagine what ['Scream' movie-within-a-movie] 'Stab 10' is like?"

It maybe like beating a dead dog, but we know tons of people who will lining up to see it anyway.

Will U be one of them?

From hot, new, hit show to craptastic TV remake. Put that pretty face to work!

With Asslee Simpson moving out of Melrose Place, there are some vacancies that need to be filled.

Enter Nick Zano, who recently has been starring in Courteney Cox's new show, Cougar Town. Nick will be playing an "irreverent and funny" doctor who moves into the apartment building.

Luckily for him, the role on Melrose Place won't be interfering with his work on Cougar Town, which probably means he won't be staying long on one of these shows (likely MP)!

A mini Friends reunion is headed to Cougar Town as Lisa Kudrow is signed on for a guest spot on Courtney Cox's new hit show.

ABC confirmed the news and Courteney was only too happy to share some of the deets.

Says Cox: “She’ll play a dermatologist that my character can’t stop going to even though [she's] mean to me."

The episode will air sometime early next year and this marks the second time Courteney has found a spot for one of her old pals on her new show.

Remember when she smooched Jennifer Aniston on Dirt?

To quote the woman herself: "time's a-ticking."

At 45, Courteney Cox already has one child, but knows if she wants another, she better get cracking. And she is just about ready to do so.

She recently explained:

"We're not trying yet. We're revving up the engines. I'm only ready ’cause time's a-ticking…If I was 34, I'd wait another year, because I like those three-to-four gaps. I want Coco to be helping me with the next one. One child is hard. Two is probably harder."

Not that we wouldn't love the expansion of David Arquette's gene pool in the universe, but what about adoption, Courteney? Easier on the lady bits and it doesn't matter how old your junk is.

C'mon, everybody else is doing it and if your BFF Jennifer Aniston doesn't hurry up and land herself a man, she's going to have to do it too.

You guys can go together! Think about it!

He can be our little cub any day!

Nick Zano graces Cougar Town with nothing but a towel and his willingness to please.

Damn you, Courteney Cox!

For a glimpse of that, maybe we'll start watching!!!

Cougar alert!

Courteney Cox's wardrobe for Cougar Town must be minimal because from what we can tell it's mostly lingerie!

Whatever it takes to get ratings right?

But does anyone really want to see Courtney parade around showing her tittays and ass? Well, besides hubby David Arquette.

Yes!

Not bad for 45!

Aww, a mini-Friends reunion!

Both Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow made appearances at the 'Rock a Little, Feed a Lot' benefit, held here in El Lay on Tuesday night at Club Nokia.

Phoebe and Monica, together again!

But where's Maniston????

P.S. Click here to watch Lisa perform her Phoebe classic Smelly Cat last night!

She finally wised up (or the studio finally paid up)!

It was announced this morning that Neve Campbell, star of the original Scream horror flicks, will most likely be back for the latest installment, Scream 4. Courteney Cox and David Arquette have already confirmed their involvement, but Neve had remained on the fence for all this time.

Exactly how big a role each of them will play in this new film is yet to be determined. It stands to reason that Neve's character, Sydney, could either be the central focus, or just another casualty of the flick. (Think Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween: Resurrection.)

Now, the only key player left for the franchise to nab is acclaimed director Wes Craven. That may end up being the hardest challenge to date, as he has admitted he isn't "closed" to the idea but isn'tnecessarily"open" to it either.

Are U excited for the new Scream flick now that it has Neve?

Courteney Cox's adorable little girl, Coco, needed some consoling after meeting hottie Zac Efron.

Courteney arranged for her little tot to meet the High School Musical cutie because Coco has a big crush on Zefron.

But, unfortunately, Coco was "traumatized" by the meeting and struck with shyness before running into a different room to hide from Efron.

We probably would be too!

Says Cox about her daughter:

"Coco gets these huge crushes on people. One day we decided to surprise her and invite Zac Efron over. We didn't tell her he was coming - she just loves him. We had a video camera up and we told her to close her eyes, (then said) 'Open them now!' She freaked out. She was traumatised and ran to her room… She was like, 'Oh no! I don't want to go out there!' I was trying to help her and she said, 'Well, it's his face!'"

Ha!

Adds court:

"I looked at Zac and I was like, he's hot. I was so attracted to him, but I ran into the room (to console Coco)."

Too cute!
