The slasher movie “Scream” just won’t go away, as it released the fifth installment earlier this year- but that’s okay, because people love it. As it turns out, three of the main characters from the original movie will be at Motor City Comic Con for a reunion.

Skreet Ulrich, Jamie Kennedy and Matthew Lillard will be at all three days at Motor City Comic Con, according to event organizers. Ulrich played Billy Loomis in the movie, Kennedy played Randy Meeks and Lillard played Stu Macher.

Other big names lined up for the 2022 Motor City Comic Con include Alan Ritchson, Danny Trejo, Freddie Prinze Jr. and William Shatner.
