Scream TV Series: Everything You Need To Know

2. The Mask

The mask has been changed for the series, with early reports circulating that they didn€™t secure the rights to use Ghostface for the pilot episode. However, the producers have stated that they felt they couldn€™t use the original mask if they weren€™t using any of the characters, because it€™s so iconic and so tied into the films. Blotevogel explained that the new mask they€™ve created, which still retains a similar look to the movie version, will have a bigger part to play in the story and the mystery of the killer:
€œOur mask had to have more meaning than just a scary disguise that the killer puts on€We get to learn why he was wearing it, and that it was a part of trying to fix what actually made him a monster, but the actually fact of wearing it makes him look like a monster.€
