 Keeping
Secrets February 03, 2000
"I
think it's only fair to keep the secret."
We chatted with 'Scream' queen Courteney
COX Arquette about life on the set -- and we even got
her to tell us the art of doing a really great scream!
Entertainment Tonight: Are you going to miss Gale?
Courteney COX Arquette: Yeah, I think I will. I'm going
to miss everyone. I'm going to miss working with Wes
(Craven) in that capacity. I'll miss the whole group
-- even David (Arquette) as Dewey. It's just
a fun thing to do. I'm glad I was able to do all three of
them and didn't get killed off in '1' or '2.'
I'm glad we finished off the trilogy as a team. It was such
a great experience for me.
ET: What was the mood like on the set because you knew
this was the last one?
Courteney: At the beginning it was just excitement
from being back together again, and at the end it got a little
strange. It was bittersweet. The weird thing is, when you
finish a movie, you know you're going to see everybody again
-- whether it's the wrap party or the press junket. You don't
really get sad. You get sad when you know it's completely
over and that's after it premieres.
ET: Is it hard to keep the secret of the killer?
Courteney: I'm kind of good at it now. I'm very used
to being really blunt and saying, "I can't talk about it."
It's very important to the people who make this movie because
you don't want to give it away. It's all about who or whoever
did it. If you give that away, it takes away a lot of the
fun. I think it's only fair to keep the secret.
ET: Are people constantly asking about it?
Courteney: Yeah, but they ask me still if ("Friends
"
characters) Ross and Rachel are ever going to get back together,
so I'm used to those kinds of questions.
ET: This is really special because this trilogy is
where you met your wonderful husband. He's adorable!
Courteney:
He's a doll, isn't he? The most original character there
is.
ET: There's no filter. I love to talk to him because
he's so unique.
Courteney: He's so special. He really is. And he's
so not private. I'm sure he told you just about everything!
ET: As I said, there's no filter.
Courteney: I'm a really open person, too, but together....
ET: Did you guys have two separate trailers or did
you share one?
Courteney: We had one -- it was a special trailer.
We were going to spend time with each other anyway, so we
got one large one. We felt very privileged.
ET: He said you were always cold in the trailer,
though.
Courteney: I don't know if I'd recommend it all of
the time -- he always wanted the air conditioning on and
he was always watching wrestling. One time I wanted to watch
one little video of something and it was a big fight. No,
it wasn't. We do have to negotiate.
ET: Some people don't enjoy working with each other,
but you guys obviously really like working with each other.
Courteney: I love it! I just think he's an amazing
actor and we have such a good time together. It's just so
easy to act with him.
ET: There were some intense scenes in this movie.
Does that come easy?
Courteney: Yeah, especially with these characters.
That's easy.
ET: PARKER (POSEY) said you were writing
your wedding thank-you notes on the set this year.
Courteney: I'm still writing those. I haven't finished.
If any of my family from Alabama is watching this, I'm sorry.
It's just so hard to do. I for some reason can't say, "Thank
you for the beautiful knife. I really loved it. Love, Courteney."
I have to get too personal. I have to make it special.
ET: Jenny (McCarthy) was saying that
you gave her a lot of advice and were so sweet because she
was getting married when she was filming this.
Courteney: She's so happy. It's so great to see.
She's such a fun, sweet girl. I recommend marriage so highly.
ET: I love the inscription on your band: "A deal
is a deal."
Courteney: My best friend came up from New York to
be the maid of honor. Her dad said, "You just tell David
and Courteney that a deal is a deal." We heard that and
just got chills.
ET: Do you ever see yourself ever doing a 'Scream'
reunion?
Courteney: No. I can't predict the future, but I
can't imagine it happening.
ET: Do you have any feelings about the future of
"Friends"? Do you think you'll continue?
Courteney: I don't have any real answers, but we
love doing the show. We have such a good time doing it.
ET: If one person does decide to leave the show,
do you think that would make a decision for everyone?
Courteney: Yeah. We're a team, and that's the way
it should be. When one person is not there, it's just not
the same.
ET: Tell me about working with Wes as a director.
Courteney: Wes is such an amazing director. I have
so much faith in him. It's so nice to be able to trust someone.
When you don't understand something, he just has a way to
explain it to me. You can just trust that it's going to
work out and be scary and real.
ET: You had to get some bruises and bumps and cuts.
Courteney: Yeah, I took some falls.
ET: Do you do all of that yourself? Do you have a
stuntwoman?
Courteney: Oh, absolutely. When I go down the hill,
that's not me.
ET: You must have some battle scars from 'Scream.'
Courteney: I think I have a worse one from 'Scream
2.' LIEV SCHREIBER kneed me in the thigh. Man, it
hurt so bad.
ET: Do you guys have to scream a lot in the movie?
Courteney: Yeah.
ET: Are you good at screaming?
Courteney: Yes, I am. I'm pretty good at it. I mean,
this is 'Scream 3.' I better be good at it by now. You just
have to be uninhibited and let it go.
ET: Do you and David want to have kids?
Courteney: Definitely.
ET: Do you think he'll be a good dad?
Courteney: Oh, yeah. He's so great with his niece
and nephew. He's amazing with kids. He really just has fun.
