Greene, Panettiere circle 'Scream 4'
Ashley Greene has been offered the lead role in Scream 4, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Greene, who recently re-negotiated a deal to return to the Twilight series in Breaking Dawn, is being lined up to play Jill, the cousin of Neve Campbell's Sidney Prescott and the heroine of Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson's new Scream trilogy.
Further cast members are expected to be added shortly, with Lake Bell (It's Complicated) negotiating for the role of a police officer who knew Sidney from high school and Heroes's Hayden Panettiere and Rory Culkin expected to join as Jill's best friend and love interest respectively.
Craven and Williamson are reportedly not sending the Scream 4 script out to actors and agents in order to keep the plot under wraps.
Campbell, David Arquette and Courteney Cox, the leading cast members of the first three Scream horrors, are also confirmed to be returning for the latest movie.
The Dimension Films project is slated to start shooting this July in Michigan.
