Jenna Ortega & Mason Gooding on Tara & Chad’s Scream 6 Romance [HoC36AU96B8]
[Editor's note: The following contains spoilers for Scream VI.] I’d be shocked if anyone suspected there’d be romance on the horizon for Jenna Ortega’s Tara and Mason Gooding’s Chad after Scream 2022. Not only was Chad dating Liv (Sonia Ammar) in that movie, but he barely spends any time on screen with Tara at all. However, then the Scream VI marketing campaign started to pepper in teases that something might be brewing between the two. It seemed like a big leap for two characters who didn’t interact much at all in the previous film, but it winds up being one of the most charming elements of the new movie. While in New York City, Tara, Chad, Mindy (Jasmin Savoy), and Sam (Melissa Carpenter) encounter a new Ghostface killer. As the killer’s attacks intensify, the group grows closer in a number of respects. The bond between twins Chad and Mindy is stronger than ever, Tara and Sam make great strides in seeing eye to eye, all four embrace Chad’s cheesy but sweet group nickname, “The Core Four,” and, of course, Tara and Chad confirm that a romantic relationship is on the horizon. During the spoiler portion of my interviews with Ortega and Gooding, I asked both for their thoughts on that new element of the film, specifically how it strengthens their own individual arcs rather than just functioning as a big screen romance for the sake of having a big screen romance.
