David Arquette & Courteney Cox Share a ‘Scream 4’ Laugh

Tuesday, Mar 22, 2011

In perhaps slightly happier times before their separation, David Arquette and Courteney Cox shared a laugh on the set of ‘Scream 4’ as fake blood-splattered Courteney wondered how best to react to a knife-wielding maniac’s attack.

“[Director Wes Craven has] done so many scary movies, and I’ll say, ‘Wes, now what do you think? How would I react if someone came up behind me with a knife, and they stabbed me?'” says Courteney. “And he’s like, ‘You know, Courteney, it’s never happened to me.'”

This comment cracks David up, and Courteney continues, “I’m just thinking, ‘Okay, well, what about the 80 movies that you’ve made? How did it go with those people?’ [Wes is] just funny, really funny.”

“It’s fun working with Courteney and David — I think they’re hilarious together,” says co-star Neve Campbell. “Their characters are sweet and wonderful and funny in a lot of ways.”

In theaters April 15, ‘Scream 4’ finds Sidney Prescott (Neve) haunted by the endless ‘Stab’ sequels being cranked out by Hollywood based on her horrendous past. Although it’s been 11 years since she was last attacked by the killer Ghostface, she’s trying to erase her reputation as a victim by becoming an acclaimed author. Of course, as soon as Sidney’s begun pulling her life back together, Ghostface has decided to make a return appearance, and it’s time for her to confront him again. Meanwhile, Gale Weathers (Courteney) has given up her job as a reporter to marry Deputy Dewey (played by David) and write a number of Stab books, but she’s got some serious writer’s block. Emma Roberts, Hayden Panettiere, Adam Brody and Anthony Anderson also star.

“Life’s dull, and then some murders happen and it just reignites everything about her, she’s excited,” says Courteney about her character. “We had such a great time making the first three [‘Scream’ movies], and I think it’s been long enough to where the people want to see what happened.”

“Coming back the first day, I was just very excited to see everyone; I was really psyched to see Courteney and David and Wes and the crew, and we’re very much like a family now,” says Neve. “Sidney, Gale, Dewey, I think they’re characters that audiences are fond of and we are fond of.”

“If you liked the other Screams, this is going to be a great one,” says David. “It’s like a return to the first.”

Access Spotlight: Courteney Cox’s Career Over The Years

Friday, Mar 18, 2011

From her role on the daytime soap, “As The World Turns,” to when she co-starred in “Scream” – Access’ Maria Menounos met up with Courteney Cox in Hawaii where she was filming the season finale of “Cougar Town” to chat about her amazing career over the years.

Courteney Cox: ‘Exiting social life, entering isolation’

Tuesday, Mar 15, 2011

Incompatibility was one problem with her marriage to David Arquette, Courteney Cox says in the April issue of Harper’s Bazaar, out March 29.

“The thing is, when you get older, it’s more about compatibility than it is about love,” she says. “I think it’s more about needing just a kind of peace and stillness. I’m kind of all over the place, and I need grounding. I want to be calm. I want to change a lot. I want to live not outside but inside. It’s nothing with David; it’s just what I’m searching for.”

Cox says she isn’t mad at Arquette for being so chatty about their breakup. “He was dealing with things the best way he could.” She pauses. “I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I don’t think he’ll be doing more Howard Stern any time soon. He’s not out to harm. But I’m his biggest protector. I can’t help it.”

Their seven-year age gap—Courteney is 46 to David’s 39—doesn’t register to her as the crux of their issues. “Most guys aren’t that mature, are they? They just don’t think the way we think.”

On rumors of an affair with her Cougar Town co-star Brian Van Holt?

She flatly denies: “He’s a really good friend of mine, so I don’t care,” says Cox. “It just doesn’t matter. He’s a great guy, and he’s definitely been a part of my support system.”

The former Friends star also says she can’t see herself diving into the dating pool any time soon.

“I have no desire right now,” she admits. “I’m not saying never. It just seems weird. I don’t even know how that would happen or how you meet people. I really don’t like to go out. I’m not great at small talk. I like to go to dinner with people. I don’t like to go to parties. There’s a sign on my forehead: EXITING SOCIAL LIFE, ENTERING INTO ISOLATION.”

‘Cougar Town’ acting its age

Wednesday, Feb 23, 2011

With Courteney Cox’s “Cougar Town” settling into its second season, the sitcom has gotten away from its attention-grabbing title — especially now that Cox’s character, Jules, is settling down with her neighbor and boyfriend, Grayson (Josh Hopkins). Cox spoke with Metro about the changes — and cases of wine — the show is going through.

What did you think of your character finding a long-term relationship so soon?

I think it’s just a new approach. It’s a functioning relationship, but with two kind of really non-functioning people in some ways. I mean, Grayson doesn’t really know how to have a relationship.

When did wine become such a central part of the show?

You know, I do like wine, there’s no question, and [creator] Bill [Lawrence] does like to take things from our personal lives and put them in the story, but he exaggerates. So yes, I like wine and yes, I might fill a glass more than other people. And it’s not that the wine is real — although sometimes it is. You know, late in the day sometimes.

Will we see any other “Friends” on the show?

I don’t know. I mean, Matthew’s got his own show. Matt LeBlanc has got his own show. Lisa and Jennifer have already done it. And Schwimmer is probably doing so many things — probably directing — and just got married. I don’t know. I don’t think so.
