Release of Scary Movie 6 film

Overview

The Wayans brothers have returned with ‘Scary Movie 6’, the sixth installment in their horror-comedy spoof franchise. Filmed at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, the film parodies various horror titles and modern trends, including ‘elevated horror’. It features the return of original characters and cast members such as Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Anna Faris, and Regina Hall.

Following a global theatrical run that grossed over $230 million, the film has achieved significant domestic success, surpassing $100 million in domestic box office earnings. This milestone makes it the only live-action comedy to reach that mark in 2026. The film parodies recent hits such as ‘Scream’ and ‘Halloween’, while also referencing cinematic elements like ‘John Wick’.

After its theatrical release in June and a period on VOD, the film is now available for streaming on Paramount+. Anna Faris, returning as Cindy Campbell, has described the experience of revisiting the role as a mixture of emotion and gratitude, noting the character’s status as a pop culture icon.
