Netflix is returning to the aptly-named Shadyside for a new Fear Street movie based on R.L. Stine's The Prom Queen.
2021's Fear Street trilogy proved to be a major success, and amid persistent rumors that the streamer might be planning to develop more adaptations of Stine's work, we got confirmation that a new Fear Street feature was in the works last November.
Now, Netflix has announced the full cast and a synopsis for Fear Street: Prom Queen, which will be directed by Matt Palmer (Calibre).
The ensemble cast includes India Fowler (The Nevers, Insomnia), Suzanna Son (Red Rocket, The Idol), Fina Strazza (Paper Girls, Above the Shadows), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty, Cinnamon), Ella Rubin (The Idea of You), Chris Klein (Sweet Magnolias, American Pie), with Lili Taylor (Outer Range, Manhunt) and Katherine Waterston (The End We Start From, Perry Mason).
“Welcome back to Shadyside. In this next installment of the blood-soaked Fear Street franchise, prom season at Shadyside High is underway and the school’s wolfpack of It Girls is busy with its usual sweet and vicious campaigns for the crown. But when a gutsy outsider is unexpectedly nominated to the court, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.”
