Ashley Greene, actress of the Twilight series, after years as a supporting actress is finally ready to break out of her shell. Her new role? Ashley is set to play the lead in Scream 4 - we know, it's not the dream role of a lifetime, but that much face time with the camera may get Hollywood critics and execs alike to get acclimated with her talent. Who knows Ashley Greene may even end up taking Megan Fox's place in Transformers 3.
With "Scream 4" coming more than a decade after its predecessor, Campbell originally bowed out of the production, declining to repriseher role as Sid, the unfortunate girl who's always on the run from the Ghostface Killer. Campbell's decision forced franchise creator Kevin Williamson to go back to the drawing board. But the actress eventually reconsidered, Wes Craven signed on to direct and the film will hit theaters in April 2011.
Craven said recently of the upcoming movie. "Sid goes through these three horrendous things, and "Stab" was based on those horrible things. And then they've been taken by a studio and run into the ground in a series of sequels. She has been off by herself and living her own life, and she's even written a book that has gotten a lot of critical acclaim. She's kind of put her life back together in the course of these 10 years. But, certainly, there would be no 'Scream' without Ghostface, so she has to confront him again, but now as a woman who has really come out the darkness of her past.
