Anna Faris has a few conditions if she’s to reprise her Scary Movie role .

A Scary Movie reboot was announced in April, and Faris, who last appeared in 2006's Scary Movie 4, may reprise her role as Cindy Campbell.

Asked what would make her take the role, she exclaimed with a laugh, "Well, money!"

The My Spy The Eternal City went on to add that she “love to” take on the role if her costar Regina Hall, who played her character's best friend Brenda, also returns.

"I would love to work with Regina again. I just love her so much," she told People. "We would make each other giggle all day long. Regina Hall would be my answer. And money. But mostly all Regina!"

The actress, 47, went on to credit the Scary Movie films for her comedic talents.

"I love that franchise. It was like my bootcamp, my beginnings," she noted.

She added: "If there is a high school comparison for my growth experience, those four movies played an important role in my life in terms of teaching me how to use props, teaching me how to fall, how to get hit in the head — how to hold Chiclets in my mouth and then spit them out with blood at a convenient time for the camera."

Anna and Regina opted out of reprising their roles for 2013’s Scary Movie 5. In 2019, she hinted at the reason, saying, "Truthfully, here's what I think: I don't know, I always joke that I was too old. ... They wanted to, like, revamp the brand, or whatever."
