Marlon Wayans Pitches "Scary Movie 6" as No Holds Barred Return for the Wayans Brothers

Wayans positions the reboot as a boundary‑pushing satire responding to changed comedy norms.

Overview

  • Wayans told Entertainment Weekly the film will be "no holds barred" and could offend some viewers, calling it an "equal opportunity offender."
  • He said the script is by Marlon, Shawn, and Keenen Ivory Wayans, marking their first joint writing effort on the series in about 18 years.
  • Anna Faris and Regina Hall are reported to return, and Wayans noted they hope to bring back more legacy cast though no additional deals are finalized.
  • Theatrical release is set for June 12, 2026, and the movie has not yet received an MPA rating.
  • Wayans hinted potential parody targets including recent titles like Nope, Longlegs, and Scream, with a planned generational conversation baked into the comedy.
