Besser met with Granat, who wanted the opening reshot with each of the Weinstein's alternative mask suggestions.

Greven believed that although it is easy to assign homosexuality to Stu because of his lack of motive to kill and apparent willingness to please his friend, Billy also features homoerotic characteristics such as the gay trope of fixating on his maternal relationship, similar to Norman Bates in Psycho, and Billy's visual styling resembling actor James Dean, considered a queer icon.

However, as time progressed, her schedule commitments meant she would be unable to remain in the leading role, so she volunteered to play the smaller role of Casey Becker who dies early in the film. Ulrich did not attend auditions because of scheduling conflicts but his girlfriend did and mentioned Ulrich brought her; Beach went out to meet him personally. Seth Green, Jason Lee, and Breckin Meyer were all preferred for Randy, the "lanky, gangly, opinionated fifth wheel, who really has a love and passion for movies," but Craven and Williamson appreciated the innocence and comedy Kennedy brought to his portrayal.

Cox, who was starring in the hit NBC sitcom Friends at the time, was not considered due to her history of playing softer, kinder characters. ba] As of 2021, Lillard's improvized dialogue, "My mom and dad are gonna be so mad at me", was still quoted to him by fans.

The following morning, Williamson was woken by a nightmare and used the experience as inspiration for the opening home invasion of Scream. Campbell's stuntwoman accidentally stabbed Ulrich with an umbrella tip, missing the protective vest he was wearing and hitting the site of an open heart surgery Ulrich had as a child.

Casey attempts to escape the house, but is killed by someone wearing a " Ghostface" costume and her disemboweled corpse is hanged from a tree.
