Anyway, I think I’ve already probably said too much.”
Barrera starred in the fifth “Scream” movie, simply titled “Scream,” opposite Jenna Ortega, Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding. That filmed revived the franchise earlier this year with strong reviews and $140 million at the worldwide box office. All four actors will be returning for “Scream 6,” as will franchise mainstay Courteney Cox. Original star Neve Campbell intended to join “Scream 6,” but exited the sequel over a deal she thought was beneath her value to the franchise. “I did not feel that what I was being offered equated to the value that I bring to this franchise, and have brought to this franchise, for 25 years,” Campbell said earlier this year. “And as a woman in this business, I think it’s really important for us to be valued and to fight to be valued.” “It was shocking, but also, as a woman, I get it,” Barrera previously

is back with its 11th installment in FX’s long-running horror anthology series, which is officially dubbed and will debut mid-October.

Rounding out this year’s ensemble are Billie Lourd, Leslie Grossman, Sandra Bernhard and Patti LuPone. For those keeping track, marks the return of alums Quinto, Powell, LuPone, Lourd, Grossman and Bernhard, while the rest are newcomers to the franchise despite having previously worked with co-creator Ryan Murphy.While few details are known about the new season, FX chairman John Landgraf told that season 11 would go back to being one story after last year’s Double Feature. “It actually takes place in different timelines but it’s one subject, one story, with a beginning, middle and an end, like many of the prior stories,” he said. Sadly, for fans of the series, longtime recurring players Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters appear not to have roles in season 11.

we pay a flippin’ fortune to be stuck inside a dingy remake of “Death Wish” that’s actually far freakier than most of the camp antics “AHS” creator Ryan Murphy has ever dreamt up.Jessica Lange as a mental patient singing “The Name Game”; Kathy Bates chewing scenery as the severed head of a New Orleans witch; Sarah Paulson shrieking on election night 2016 as she watches the news — cute, fun, silly.Compared to previous seasons “Asylum” and “Coven,” New York is a hellhole — five boroughs in the nine circles where major crime has soared 36% and one rotting onion costs $2 while an ever-present haze of pot smoke hovers like graveyard fog on “Scooby Doo.” Our city is awash in actual, palpable dread and tourists are afraid to come here. We should change the famous lyric to “Start spreading the mace!” Indeed, there’s enough material in our foul city for an entire “AHS” spin-off series. Random subway shovings have become so common that the city is planning to install plastic dividers on some platforms, and the uptick in underground incidents has spurred Gov.
