Scary Movie 6: New Trailer, Massive Cast and Controversial Spoofs Revealed
Exclusive details about scary movie 6 land this week as the studio prepares to share the first trailer ahead of a major competing horror release. The update cements a bold spoof strategy, a stacked returning cast, and at least one potentially controversial parody sequence — all reasons the franchise’s next chapter is already drawing attention.
Scary Movie 6’s target list: Sinners, Weapons, A Quiet Place and Terrifier 3
Sources close to the production say the new film lampoons a handful of recent and notable horror and drama titles. The parody lineup includes Terrifier 3, with a direct nod to the mall Santa moment in which Art the Clown blows up a group of children; Ryan Coogler’s Sinners; Zach Cregger’s Weapons; and A Quiet Place. Expect set pieces that riff on key moments from each property rather than just passing jokes.
How the spoofs reportedly play out
Creative descriptions circulating about the Weapons parody highlight a sequence in which the Wayans harpoon the character Aunt Gladys, with a bell gag teased as part of the bit. The A Quiet Place send-up reportedly leans into broad physical comedy — one source says there’s a planned fart joke tied to that spoof. For Terrifier 3, a sequence skewers the mall scene featuring Art the Clown and was described as especially gory in execution.
Cast, cameos and a trimmed-restored sequence
The film’s ensemble mixes franchise regulars with newly added performers. Returning players include Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Regina Hall, Anna Faris, Lochlyn Monroe, Dave Sheridan, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott and Jon Abrahams. New roles reportedly go to Damon Wayans Jr., Kim Wayans, Heidi Gardner and additional talent yet to be disclosed.
- Felissa Rose appears in a sequence parodying Terrifier 3 that specifically targets the mall Santa explosion moment.
- That Terrifier-related sequence was initially cut during editing but has since been reinstated in a trimmed-down edit.
- In the scene, Rose is described as drenched in blood and the sequence includes an appearance by Terrifier producer Michael Leavy.
- For context among fans: Felissa Rose previously appeared in Terrifier 2, and Michael Leavy played Will the exterminator in the first film.
Writers, producers and creative intent
The franchise architects — Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans and Keenen Ivory Wayans — returned to write the script alongside longtime collaborator Rick Alvarez, who is producing. Last year Marlon Wayans promised the project would be "no holds barred and equal opportunity offenders. " He added that the Wayans approach has always been to make everybody laugh and to push boundaries so that even sensitive people "need to laugh at themselves. "
Controversial material flagged in Sinners parody — developing
An exclusive update indicates the production may have shot a particularly controversial element for the Sinners parody. It is unclear whether this footage appears in the final cut, but one account describes a Ghostface-inspired killer mask that may depict blackface imagery. This detail remains uncertain and may evolve as the trailer and final edit are released.
Release timing and the trailer push
The studio will release Scary Movie 6 in theaters on June 12, 2026. The trailer is scheduled to arrive this Friday, kicking off promotional momentum ahead of a competing slasher sequel. Early promotion is framed as deliberately provocative and comedic, with the creative team leaning into broad satire and callbacks to franchise history.
Carmen Electra and the film’s defensive posture
Another headline aligned with the project highlights that Carmen Electra trusts the Wayans to write what was described as an "un-cancelable" Scary Movie — a claim that underscores the production’s stated intent to push comedic limits. That framing helps explain the mix of reunion casting, edgy parody targets, and restored sequences that aim for shock value and comedic payoff.
Trailer release this Friday should clarify tone, cut, and whether the flagged Sinners imagery remains. Until then, details about specific edits and the presence of controversial footage are developing and may change before the theatrical release on June 12, 2026.
