Jamie Kennedy (known for Scream , Malibu’s Most Wanted ) was cast as the polar opposite of Burt: young, irreverent, and reliant on social media for validation. Kennedy’s character serves as a narrative device (the “fish out of water” whose video diary explains monster biology) and a comedic foil. Critical reception to Kennedy’s performance was mixed; some appreciated the modern update, while long-time fans found his constant banter and cowardice jarring compared to previous sidekicks (e.g., Earl Bassett or Grady Hoover). 3. Supporting Cast The South African setting necessitated a predominantly local supporting cast, adding authenticity to the backdrop. tremors 5 movie cast
