Scary Movie 6: A Return to Hilarity and Horror in 2026

Get ready for another wild ride of laughs and scares as Scary Movie 6 is set to hit theaters on June 12, 2026! Fans of the iconic horror-comedy franchise can rejoice as this latest installment brings back all the outrageous parody fun that made the series a cult favorite. Directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans, the man who helped create the first film, Scary Movie 6 will continue the tradition of poking fun at the most memorable moments in horror films and pop culture, all while keeping its unique, no-holds-barred sense of humor.

What’s the Parody This Time?

As with previous films in the series, Scary Movie 6 will parody some of the biggest and most popular horror movies of the past decade. While specific details about the films targeted in the parody haven’t been fully disclosed yet, you can expect a mix of slasher flicks, psychological thrillers, and even some newer, viral phenomena. The Scary Movie franchise is known for skewering everything from Scream, The Sixth Sense, The Matrix, to The Blair Witch Project, and the new installment is sure to keep the tradition alive with some fresh, sharp satire.

Ghostface Returns for Another Round of Laughs

One of the biggest returns for Scary Movie 6 will be none other than Ghostface, the masked killer from the Scream series, who has been a central figure in the franchise’s spoofs since the first film. Dave Sheridan, who played the hilariously dim-witted Officer Doofy in the original Scary Movie, has confirmed that Ghostface will indeed be part of the action once again. This time, it seems the mask will be just as comedic as it is creepy, as the Scary Movie crew is sure to give the character the parody treatment that fans have come to love.

The Legacy of Scary Movie

The original Scary Movie, released in 2000, was an instant hit, grossing over $278 million worldwide against a modest budget of $19 million. Its success sparked a franchise that continued through four more films, each with its own brand of irreverent comedy. The sequels, Scary Movie 2 (2001), Scary Movie 3 (2003), Scary Movie 4 (2006), and Scary Movie 5 (2013), each took aim at different aspects of horror and pop culture, from haunted houses to alien invasions, and even reality TV.

While the fifth installment didn’t quite perform as well as its predecessors at the box office, it didn’t dampen the demand for more absurd parodies. Fans have long been clamoring for the return of the franchise, and after a hiatus, Scary Movie 6 is now officially in the works. With the franchise’s hallmark humor and creativity, the film is sure to deliver laughs while continuing its tradition of satirizing the horror genre. 

The Team Behind the Madness

The creative minds behind Scary Movie 6 will include some familiar faces, such as the return of Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans, the original masterminds of the series. With Keenen Ivory Wayans once again in the director’s chair, audiences can expect the same blend of over-the-top humor and sharp wit that has made the series an enduring favorite in the comedy-horror genre.

While the specific cast is still under wraps, it’s expected that some of the franchise’s beloved stars may make a comeback. There’s also speculation that we could see new characters and actors join the madness, adding even more ridiculousness to the already chaotic world of Scary Movie.
