According to Deadline, Jay Beattie and Dan Dworkin (“Criminal Minds”) have been tapped to write the horror drama pilot, which is based on the successful film franchise with Dimension Films.

Produced with Dimension Films, MTV is currently in talks with director Wes Craven to direct the pilot. Should “Scream” receive a series order, it would be slated for a summer 2014 launch and would join current scripted offerings “Teen Wolf” (also adapted from a film franchise) and “Awkward.”
