“Pretty Little Liar” Lucy Hale is the latest addition to Wes Craven’s sexy Scream 4 cast that includes Emma Roberts, Hayden Panettiere ,”Mad Men’s” Alison Brie, Shenae Grimes, Marielle Jaffe, Grindhouse’s Marley Shelton, and cameos by Anna Paquin and Kristen Bell.

No word yet on Hale’s character, but my sharp movie savant senses tell me she’ll most likely play a cute schoolgirl, a role she’s perfected on ABC Family’s “Pretty Little Liars” and the CW’s “Privileged.” The 21-year-old stunner other creds include a NBC’s short-lived “Bionic Woman” reboot as Jaime Summer’s young sister, and had a part in the horror film Fear Island.

Written by franchise creator Kevin Williamson, Scream 4 is the start of a new trilogy that aims to frighten audiences while poking fun at modern day horror cliches. Old-schoolers Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Araquette return to the mix to reprise their respective roles as Sidney Prescott, Gale Weathers-Riley, and Sheriff Dewey Riley.

Scream 4 is currently shooting in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The film is slated for release on April 15, 2011.
