Nico is featured in the new “Abercrombie & Fitch” book/catalogue “A&F Quarterly”, released in selected stores yesterday. The photo was taken by Bruce Weber during Nico’s trip in Miami last February.

As I previously hinted on the site’s Twitter account, Nico graces the new Summer issue of “MF: Music + Fashion” magazine with a oustanding 8-page fashion editorial by Christian Rios. The issue hits newsstands next week, but in the meantime you can feast your eyes with the preview uploaded to their site. Ultra high quality digital scans of Nico’s spread have been added to the gallery:

A new amazing photoshoot of Nico has been added to the gallery. It’s a set of 26 high quality photos, and every single one of them is perfection. The lovely Mama is pictured with Nico in some of the shots and they look so cute together!

Please do not crop off our tag if you repost them, it’s tiny and you won’t even notice it.

Two smoking hot photoshoots have been added to the gallery. Unfortunately we only have one photo per set, but the quality is amazing and Nico looks perfect in both of them (especially in the latter one).

According to the same source, the movie hits theathers on August 6 (one week later than what was previously reported).

If you are following us on Twitter you probably already know about most of these things, but for those of you who don’t I’m writing a round-up post to fill you in on all the latest on Nico and “Scream 4″, including all the major events from this past weekend up until the first day of filming yesterday.

The weekend started off on a bad note when Lake Bell confirmed via her Twitter account that due to scheduling conflicts she has to back out and will no longer play Deputy Judy Hicks in the fourth “Scream” movie. No word yet on who will ultimately get the role.

In the evening of Friday (June 25) Nico and co-star Hayden Panettiere visited Salon Vox in Ann Arbor, most probably to get their hair cut for the movie. Nico worked with stylist Justin A. Nichols and “Scream 4″ hairstylist Joy Zapata.

On Saturday June 26, filming officially began for Neve Campbell and Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell (appearing as a host in a cameo role). Nancy posted some lovely photos from the set on her TwitPic account.

Over the weekend blogs went literally crazy reporting possible locations for the movie: On Location Vacation and  Before The Trailer reported that they are occupying several building in Varsity Drive in Ann Arbor (probably a base camp/studio – with a production office located on 4401 Varsity Road, Suite D). Trailers and crew signs were spotted yesterday at St. Francis Church/School on Stadium/St. Francis street. Filming will take place at the middle school in Dearborn (4951 Ternes Street) from June 29 through the 2nd, then again on the 6th and 9th from 5am til 10pm. For more information and last-minute heads up make sure you are following Before The Trailer and Scream-Trilogy.net on Twitter.

A couple of fan photos and videos from yesterday (Monday June 28) leaked online. You can see Hayden Panettiere and Emma Roberts filming a car scene, follow this link. If you live in Michigan and are interested in “visiting” the set, follow the “Z Project” signs, a codename for the movie.

Make sure you are following Nico-Tortorella.com on Twitter for all the latest. I don’t feel like posting too much on here when it’s not directly related to Nico, so I’ll just write a post like this from time to time to summarize what’s happening in Ann Arbor.

Some (amazing) audition videos of Nico just leaked online, and before you get your hopes up, they are not from Scream 4, but for projects Nico didn’t end up getting. The first is titled “The Goodbye People” (and judging by his hair, I’d say it was filmed near the end of 2009), the second (more recent) is for a project titled “The Locals” and Nico is apparently auditioning for the role of a (twisted) priest. Videos as well as screen captures (I went a little overboard with them, I just couldn’t resist) have been added:

Edit: Two scans of Nico from his modeling days were in one of the above auditions. Unfortunately I have no idea what magazine they are from or who’s the photographer, but I’ll keep searching. Screencaps of the photos have been added to the gallery for now:

Those of you following Nico-Tortorella.com on Twitter already know that Nico attended the Activision E3 2010 preview party last night (June 14, 2010). Unfortunately I couldn’t locate any red carpet photo, but two high quality candids of him and Sara leaving  the Staples Center in Los Angeles after said event have been added to the gallery:

Edit: A short video of them leaving the event has been added to YouTube. Unfortunately you can only see Nico’s arm and back as he drags Sara and they storm away.

Great news today, dear visitors! Nico just got cast, apparently as one of the leads, in the new “Scream 4″ movie currently in pre-production.

Unfortunately we don’t have an official confirmation on the character Nico will play (see below), but we have some information about the movie to keep us going until more details leak:

The “Scream 4″ script was written by Kevin Williamson (who also penned  the other 3 “Scream” movies and tv hit “The Vampire Diaries”), and will be directed by Wes Craven (the visionaire behind the “Scream” trilogy and another gazilion of horror movies), it will be produced by The Weinstein Company and distributed by Dimension Films.

Already confirmed among the cast are Courteney Cox, David Arquette and Neve Campbell (reprising their roles from the original “Scream” trilogy and serving as an integration to the new kids’ storyline), Emma Roberts and Rory Culkin (both already worked with Nico in the upcoming “Twelve”, playing  Jill Kesslar and Charlie Walker respectively); Hayden Panettiere (set to play Kirby Reed) and Lake Bell (as Deputy Judy Hicks) have also been confirmed.

My guess, based on the casting calls released, is that Nico will play a character named Trevor Sheldon, described as: “Handsome high school jock, but quiet and intense, as though a secret hangs over his head”. All the remaining uncasted characters are either females or men in their 30-40s, you do the math. This is just my guess, and it hasn’t been confirmed.

Principal photography is set to begin in and around Ann Arbor (Michigan) on June 28 and the movie is scheduled for an April 15, 2011 release.

The plot synopsis, according to IMDb:

Ten years have passed, and Sidney Prescott, who has put herself back together thanks in part to her writing, is visited by the Ghostface Killer

Not much, I know. Hopefully we will know more soon. In the meantime, make sure you subscribe to the newsletter on the movie’s official site, follow it on Twitter, and become a fan on Facebook.

And last, but definitely not least, Nico’s reaction to the casting news (follow him on Twitter: @Nico_Tortorella):

Huge news today!!!! Just officially got cast in scream 4!!!! Today is always the best day of my life
