‘Scream Queens’ News: Another Big Name Joins Cast [Watch]
Season 1 of the highly anticipated Fox horror series "Scream Queens" is starting to fill up its roster with all of today's hottest talent.
With huge pop stars and young actresses already signed on to headline the series, the show just added "Grown Ups 2" star Patrick Schwarzenegger to the cast, according to a tweet by creator Ryan Murphy.
"Happy to announce that PATRICK SCHWARZENEGGER has joined the cast of SCREAM QUEENS," Murphy wrote in the tweet, accompanied by a picture of the hot young star who just so happens to be the son Hollywood legend Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Deadline reports that the first season is set to premiere on the Fox broadcast network this month on Sept. 22.
The freshman run of the series will be all about a terror that takes place in a sorority house on a college campus. The theme will take cues from many different films in the genre and will have a strong focus on mass-murder by an unidentified assailant.
The cast fills out with the acting talents of people like Emma Roberts, Abigail Breslin, Keke Palmer, Lea Michele, Ariana Grande, Oliver Hudson, Nick Jonas, Charisma Carpenter and Jamie Lee Curtis, who many consider to be the original Scream Queen since her movie debut in the 1978 classic film "Halloween."
Creator Ryan Murphy spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the series.
"We're paying tribute to all the things we loved as kids: 'Heathers,' 'Halloween,' 'Friday the 13th'; but the girls shooting now don't know 'Heathers'; they know 'Mean Girls,'" Murphy told THR. "Every generation has their own version of that so hopefully 'Scream Queens' will become this generations of that."
The score for the series will feature many hits that came out of the '80s and '90s and even the opening sequence for the film has been cut to resemble '80s-style horror technique.
