During a new interview, iconic “Scream” co-stars and former couple Courteney Cox and David Arquette sat down with Extra to discuss the upcoming film. In addition to mentioning what it was like to return to the franchise, they also revealed what their teenage daughter thinks about watching her parents’ acting roles.
According to Arquette, Coco hasn’t seen the upcoming version of “Scream 5,” though she has watched some of the first “Scream” movie that came out in 1996. Cox said, “She doesn’t like to watch anything we do … I’m gonna make her watch this one with her eyes open … I didn’t watch most of this film — I hear it’s really good.” However, Coco also isn’t the only child in the horror movie franchise to not watch the “Scream” movies. Actor Neve Campbell, who plays lead character Sidney Prescott, revealed recently in an interview with The New York Times that her much younger sons haven’t watched the franchise either.
At the end of the day, it just might come down to parental embarrassment, especially after Arquette alluded to Coco during his 2011 run on “Dancing with the Stars” in Us Weekly. “Coco is a little worried I’ll embarrass her, and I’m sure I will,” he said.
