In the Scream universe, it is mentioned he portrayed Dewey Riley in at least the first two Stab films, but chose not to return for the later-cancelled Stab 3: Return to Woodsboro (2000). An actual Stab 3: Hollywood Horror was eventually made, but it is unknown if Schwimmer returned or not.
Scream universe[]
According to the fictional Scream universe, he portrayed Woodsboro Massacre survivor Dewey Riley in the movie-within-a-movie Stab (1998) and its sequel, Stab 2 (1999), the first two slasher films in the Stab film franchise.
He decided not to return for the later-cancelled third film which caused the death of his Stab and Stab 2 co-star, Jennifer Jolie. He was replaced by Tom Prinze (who was later murdered) for the cancelled Stab 3: Return to Woodsboro.
It is unknown if he returned for Stab 3: Hollywood Horror or further sequels.
Trivia[]
- He is the second co-star of Courteney Cox from the sitcom F.R.I.E.N.D.S to be mentioned, the other being Jennifer Aniston. This is possibly a homage to her performance in the sitcom as she was starring in F.R.I.E.N.D.S when filming the first three Scream films.
- He does not actually appear in any of the Scream films, not even through archive footage from the Stab films.
