In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly magazine, commenting on the news that actor David Arquette checked himself into rehab, Wes Craven may have inadvertently provided a bit of spoileryish information about the upcoming Scream sequel film. His comments, which at first read innocently, may be more telling than he might like. Is it possible that the director actually let slip some very important information about a major death in Scream 4?

Director Wes Craven publicly shared his support for actor David Arquette, who recently entered rehab, with EW.com yesterday: “I’m glad to hear that David is going into rehab. I saw him a little bit more because he was present during more of the shoot than Courteney. He was in a lot of pain, so it’s good that he’s getting some help.” He referred to the two as “very professional people” when addressing the concern that Cox and Arquette might not wish to promote the film together, and added, “Frankly, none of us knew anything was going on [during filming]…I don’t know what their problems are, but it’s not that they hate each other that’s for sure. It’s something else.” So what exactly is the spoiler here? Well, there really isn’t one—except that numerous people have taken Craven’s comment about Arquette being on-set for a greater period of time than Cox as an indication of her character’s fate.

HMMMM … I mean, as I said, Craven’s comments could be totally innocent. Mebbe Courteney was not on set very much because she had to fly back to LA to film scenes for Cougar Town? Maybe her role in the film isn’t as big as previous films and she still ends up escaping death? But, I suppose it’s also very feasible that Courteney’s character, Gale Weathers, will be killed off at some point in the film. After all, as the already released promo photo above clearly shows, she does have a run-in with the Ghostface killer and we do see her battling him (or her) in the already released movie trailer. Even if Craven did accidentally spoil a bit, we won’t know for sure until the movie comes out in May. If I were a betting man, I’d say that Craven didn’t spoil … but that Courteney’s character prolly won’t live to for the coming Scream 5 and 6 films.

So … what do y’all think?
