Vince Vaughn nearly stars in iconic horror film Scream

Vince Vaughn was almost cast in the iconic horror film "Scream," which debuted in 1996. Initially, he was considered for the lead role of Sidney Prescott but ultimately took a smaller part. This change allowed Neve Campbell to become the film's star. The film's production faced challenges, including a last-minute location change from a high school in Santa Rosa to the Sonoma Community Center. This switch added significant costs and required script adjustments, highlighting the difficulties the crew encountered during filming. "Scream" became a cultural phenomenon, influencing horror films and popularizing the Ghostface mask, which was based on a standard Halloween design. The film's success also led to increased use of caller ID, as seen in the character's tragic fate.
