Watch Paris Jackson in New Clip from Scream: Resurrection

It's only been about a week since we received word that the third season of the Scream television series was finally happening, but we already have a sneak peek preview clip to share with you today. As we previously reported, Scream: Resurrection will stand on its own as a six-episode limited event series that serves as a reboot of the show, leaving behind the stories and characters from the first two seasons.

The new preview clip introduces guest star Paris Jackson as she comes face to face with Ghostface... or does she? Give it a watch above and read on for more details on the upcoming revival.

Scream: Resurrection will consist of six hour-long episodes, with two airing per night over the course of three nights. It’s a limited event featuring an all-new cast, but it does come with a few exciting caveats. For starters, the mask used on screen will be the original one from the first film, which is being used on television for the very first time. In addition, original Ghostface voice actor Roger Jackson is returning to reprise his role in this rebooted series.

The new story will follow Deion Elliot, a local star football running back, whose tragic past comes back to haunt him and threaten his hard-earned plans for the future – and the lives of his unlikely group of friends. Starring is RJ Cyler, Mary J. Blige, Keke Palmer, Tyler Posey, Tyga, Giorgia Whigham, Jessica Sula, C.J. Wallace, and Giullian Yao Gioiello, with Paris Jackson guest starring.

Wes Craven, Tony DiSanto, Liz Gateley, Marianne Maddalena, and Cathy Konrad are on board as executive producers, with Matthew Signer and Keith Levine producing and VH1's Maggie Malina and Dana Gotlieb-Carter overseeing.

Scream: Resurrection will begin its three-night event on Wednesday, July 8th with its first two episodes, followed by the next four split between the 9th and 10th. Each night’s airings will begin at 9:00 PM.
