Anna Faris is revealing the pointed joke directed at Melania Trump that was cut from the newly released sixth installment of the Scary Movie franchise.
The actress recently told Dexerto that she was always pushing for her character Cindy “to be a classic MAGA rabbit hole” in the horror-comedy spoof film. “The kind of person that you saw outside of the Walmart during quarantine that was raising some kind of crazy-ass fuss,” she explained.
Faris then detailed the scene where she shaded the “Be Best” campaign, which the first lady launched during Donald Trump’s first term with a mission to address issues affecting children and young adults.
“There was a moment where I am getting wasted, like so drunk. I am in my truck and I look into the rearview mirror and I say, ‘Be best, Cindy Campbell. Be best,’” The House Bunny actress said. “That didn’t make it, but I liked my little winking there.”
She continued, “You know, what are you gonna do? You gonna be mad at Cindy? I’m in a movie that is truly the most offensive movie ever made, and I’m the lead of it. And I participate in offensive ideas. I think I can kind of do anything. It liberated me.”
Faris has reprised her role as Cindy in five of the Scary Movie installments, only sitting out of 2013’s Scary Movie 5. She then returned for the 2026 reboot, directed by Michael Tiddes, alongside original stars Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans and Regina Hall.
The film released on June 5 and went on to top the box office with an estimated $55 million in domestic ticket sales during its debut weekend.
