Anna Faris Would Return to the Scary Movie Franchise Under Two Conditions: Money a

Anna Faris would reprise her role as Cindy Campbell in the “Scary Movie” franchise, so long as a few conditions are met.

In an interview with People, Farris was asked what it would take for her to return to the franchise for a new installment, to which she emphatically replied, “Well, money!”

She went on to say that she’d “love to reprise her role” if she could star alongside her former “Scary Movie” co-star, Regina Hall, who played Brenda in the horror parody film series.

“I would love to work with Regina again. I just love her so much,” Faris said. “We would make each other giggle all day long. Regina Hall would be my answer. And money. But mostly all Regina!”

Faris and Hall starred in the first four installments of the spoof franchise. Despite their onscreen chemistry, neither Faris nor Hall appeared in 2013’s “Scary Movie 5,” which starred Simon Rex and Ashley Tisdale. In April, Paramount and Miramax announced plans to reboot the franchise, tapping “Fast and Furious” mega-producer Neal H. Moritz to resurrect the dormant franchise.

Faris, who got her big break with 2000’s “Scary Movie,” recalled how she learned her best comedy chops while working on those films.

“If there is a high school comparison for my growth experience, those four movies played an important role in my life in terms of teaching me how to use props, teaching me how to fall, how to get hit in the head — how to hold Chiclets in my mouth and then spit them out with blood at a convenient time for the camera,” she told People.

Faris stars alongside Dave Bautista in Peter Segal’s action-comedy “My Spy: The Eternal City,” which is available now on Prime Video.
