Jamie Lee Curtis and Emma Roberts join cast of Fox's Scream Queens

Emma Roberts is set to topline Ryan Murphy‘s upcoming comedy-horror pilot for Fox titled Scream Queens! The 23-year-old actress will co-star with horror legend Jamie Lee Curtis in the 15-episode hour long comedy series, which will debut in the Fall of 2015. Not much is known about the plot of the series, which is an anthology, but we do know the first season revolves around a college campus that’s rocked by a series of murders.

Both actresses have a slew of legitimate horror credits. Curtis, one of film's original scream queens, was stalked famously by Michael Myers in John Carpenter‘s 1978 horror classic “Halloween.” The actress would reprise the role four more times throughout the popular franchise. More recently, the Emmy-nominated actress starred in the “Veronica Mars” movie and on a handful of episodes of Fox's “New Girl.” Roberts has starred “Scream 4” in addition to co-starring on Murphy and Falchuk's other horror anthology series, FX's “American Horror Story.” The actress had major roles in both the “Coven” and “Freak Show” instalments. “Scream Queens” is produced by 20th Century Fox Television in association Ryan Murphy Television.
