Lauren Graham Cast In Scream 4?

I’m getting a very Jennifer Aniston feeling from this news, but I can’t let it go uncovered in the case it turns out to be true. According to Ghouls on Film, Lauren Graham is heading to Woodsboro for a role in Scream 4.

First reason to be suspicious? The source is someone “close to the production.” This might fly for better known publications with a track record in delivering factual scoops, but there’s no reason to be confident in the site’s claim. Second, the whole Jennifer Aniston thing turned out to be one stinking pile of BS. Unless the news comes from an official provider or straight from Wes Craven himself, I’m remaining doubtful.

Now on to the third reason and the one that might quash this rumor completely; based on that casting call we told you about, there’s no role for someone of Graham’s age and sex. The only remaining non-teen roles are Sidney’s 20-something personal assistant and two male detectives in their 40s. Of course changes could have been made or a mommy role added since the listing was first posted back in April, but the fact that this announcement is drowning in skepticism to begin with, makes that highly unlikely.
