Emma Roberts and Hayden Panettiere, who are both starring in Scream 4, chatted with Zap2It regarding script changes after Kevin Williamson exited the project and if anyone knew the killers' identities going into it.
"I knew from the beginning who the killer was going to be. Whether it was me or somebody else," Panettiere teases. "But the ending was definitely kept from us for a little while. They were writing it and rewriting it and playing around with it so we had an idea, a general idea of it but it was subject to change."
"That's kind of how it always is though," Roberts adds. "Whenever you sign on to things you're always getting new pages because you know, reading a script is one thing but making it come to life with all these different people that don't know each other -- or some do and some don't -- it's like you kind of need to do some tweaks to fit everyone's relationships."
Adding, "It was all pretty normal stuff. It was nothing too crazy at all. My part never changed drastically, just the words."
They also spoke about who actually knows who the killers are...
"I read the whole thing," Roberts tells us. "They had me go to Wes Cravens house and read it, which was kind of intimidating, and then I auditioned and I got the part."
As for Panettiere, more details were kept under wraps.
"I was in Germany, they had somebody fly to Germany to watch me read the middle part of the script," Panettiere says. "So it had no beginning. It had no end. Just the middle part of the script. And that was, of course, subject to change."
