R.L. Stine Confirms New ‘Fear Street’ Film Is On The Way From Netflix

deadline.com:

Netflix is set to go into production on a new R.L. Stine film based on his Fear Street series. The next movie will be based on The Prom Queen. “Movie News: I can finally announce that a new Fear Street movie is about to go into production for Netflix.

It’s based on my Fear Street book, The Prom Queen. Good news!” Stine wrote in a social media post (see below). Netflix released one Fear Street movie a week for three weeks in 2021.

The trilogy was inspired by R. L. Stine’s Fear Street: 1994, Fear Street: 1978, and Fear Street: 1666, but were not based on any specific books written by Stine.

Netflix confirmed back in November that a standalone Fear Street film was in the works, and that this time, the film will be based on a specific book. “Obviously, there’s a lot of books,” Netflix’s Head of Film Scott Stuber previously said in a Collider interview. “There’s one standalone that we’re working on right now that we’re once again trying to get the script right, but I like it very much, and so does the team.
