The Cast Of Scary Movie What They Look Like From The Movie And Now

The early 2000's were rampant with spoof teen movies. But none did better than Scary Movie. It was promoted as a horror, slasher parody of the hit movies, Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, but with an additional mix of The Sixth Sense, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, The Usual Suspects, The Matrix, The Blair Witch Project and more. With it's over the top humor and exaggerated situations, no one expected Scary Movie to do as well as it did including some of its stars. But the movie which was filmed on a $19 million dollar budget went on to make $278 million worldwide and four sequels. The entire five-movie franchise made almost $900 million between 2000 and 2003.

Scary Movie might have had mixed reviews with critics when it made its debut on July 7, 2000, but it made stars out of Anna Faris and Regina Hall, whose star power grew exponentially after the release of the film. And other movies like 2001's Not Another Teen Movie tried to follow Scary Movie parody formula, but it couldn't conjure up quite the same numbers at the box office, although they did ok.

Check out what your favorite Scary Movie stars look like now!

15 Anna Faris As Cindy Campbell

Anna Faris landed her big break when she got the role of Cindy Campbell in Scary Movie. Cindy was a mix of sweet, naive and kind of fearless, which Anna played hilariously well.

She also has roles in Lost in Translation, The House Bunny, and Brokeback Mountain.

She now hosts the podcast, Unqualified, where she interviews celebs and they give advice to listeners.

Regina says she loved playing Brenda. “I always loved playing Brenda the most, in Scary Movie, because I love Anna Faris so much. I just love Cindy and Brenda. I think they're the worst friends ever. We never pick them to be friends, but they're friends, but you actually believe that they're friends, but you don't know why.”

Regina's had a lot of success since her Scary Movie days like on appearing on the TV shows, Ally McBeal, Law & Order, Black-ish and Insecure And in movies like, Think Like A Man and Barbershop and but she could most recently be seen on Girls Trip.

We haven't seen a lot from Jon in recent years since his breakout role in Scary Movie.

But he's been making the rounds on TV with guest spots on tv shows like Hawaii Five-O, Criminal Minds, and The Mentalist. Some of Jon's other notable roles were Dalton Chapman in House of Wax and Denny Byrnes in the Ben Stiller comedy Meet the Parents.

Shawn, along with brother Marlon, actually co-wrote Scary Movie together with a few other writers from their show, The Wayans Brother as a parody of all those later 90's teen movies like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer.

Carmen was named Drew after Drew Barrymore, who of course who gets killed off at the beginning of Scream, but she's very provocative and over the top. Carmen had no idea the movie would do so well. “Honestly, I had no idea it was going to do so well.

I got tickets to go see the movie in the theater, and I sat in the back with a real audience, and I remember after my scene, everyone cheered! It was the coolest thing ever. To this day, I don't think I've ever been to a movie where that happened. Well, maybe Star Wars?” Scary Movie wasn't Carmen's only parody movie, she also starred in Date Movie, Epic Movie, Meet the Spartans, and Disaster Movie.

7 Keenen Ivory Wayans' Tiny Part

Even Keenen didn't know Scary MOvie would do as well as it did in theaters. “It was a really, really great feeling.

Dave surprised many with his twist at the end of the movie---he is not disabled and might be the real killer. And side note, he doesn't even look like his character Dewey at the end of the movie. Arquette has commented on the spoof saying he is often mistaken for his parody counterpart, adding “I don't make love to vacuum cleaners.” Dave started his career interning at Saturday Night Live before he headed into acting.

She is best known for her quirky, high strung characters like Arianna, a member of The Spartan Cheerleaders with Will Ferrell.
