Exclusive: Shawnee Smith on 'Slaughter' and 'Scream Queens Season 2' - Will It Happen?
We caught up with the ever-lovely Miss Shawnee Smith at this weekend’s Sawmania convention in New York, where she talked about the fate of her three latest horror projects – Slaughter, The Grudge 3 and Scream Queens. Read on to learn their different fates!
Can you talk about Slaughter? Where is the project at this point?
Slaughter thus far has been an absolute disaster – of proportions I’ve never witnessed in my three decades of acting. Maybe one day they will redeem themselves, but right now… it’s not good.
How about The Grudge 3?
Grudge 3 is coming to DVD soon! Woo! I haven’t seen it yet but I know I was very frightened while I was filming it. Hopefully it’ll be good. It was a good group of people to work with.
What else can people plan on seeing you in next?
Well, right now I’m doing Scream Queens, which is on VH1 on Monday nights at 10 o’clock. It’s a great show. All my friends love it, even my artsy-fartsy ones. It’s gotten great reviews.
Any word on whether or not we’ll see a second season?
I don’t know. We need to get the word out a little bit more. Everyone loves the show, from the network to the people who made it, but we need to get the word out a little bit more. I’m sure everyone would love to do another season. And of course there’s also Smith and Pyle. Missi Pyle and I made a record. It’s been out digitally and we just got the first hard copies out. And we’re working on a Smith and Pyle show.
So you’ll be touring?
We’re working on it more as a TV show.
Is that something we could see on VH1?
Possibly. There are a few places it could go.
So is this a variety-hour type thing?
Yeah, it’s like loose sketch comedy.
In real life what’s your greatest fear?
Anything related to my children. My greatest fear right now would be my children somehow accidentally walking into a High School Musical – y’know, in the movie theater.
