Neve Campbell Announces SCREAM 7 Return!

Neve Campbell is returning to 'Scream!' The actress announced Tuesday on Instagram that she will be reprising her role as Sidney Prescott in the upcoming seventh installment, with Kevin Williamson set to direct.

OK now i can get on board. Sidney is back AND kevin is back? I cant wait

[@BRANDON_MALVEAUX_]

Yes but aren't you nervous that we would get a set back

I’m on board for anything Scream. Keep making WC proud 😱

[@kaosaelee3322]

I'm so happy.. welcome back Final girl " Sidney Prescott.. your presence was missing like Jamie Lee Curtis without her in Halloween franchise.. great News ❤

[@traydaniel0403]

I hope Neve Campbell is an executive producers like Courteney Cox

[@ryanjones6827]

It’s amazing how people never quit their characters in films

[@tammylee1970]

Im so excited to see her return , I was a bit irritated that they didn’t pay her what she deserved in the last film so she declined the offer. It makes sense as she and others like Courtney cox helped make the films what they are today. She deserves to be paid just as much money as some of the men.

[@professorstewart6379]

I'm glad to hear Campbell is finally being paid what she's obviously worth. Good for her for holding out for fair pay. I'm glad she got what she asked for and I'm looking forward to the film.

Nev Campbell is back as Sydney in Scream 7, and it's like the spirit of the original is returning too! Can't wait to see how this one unfolds. 🎭🔪 #Scream7

Awesome. I’m so happy. The Carpenter sisters were great. And they held their own with the reboot. But the franchise started with Sidney. It’s just not Scream without her.

[@dailyamine]

I'm excited to see Neve Campbell back, even though I wasn't a big fan of the last 2 Scream episodes - gotta love that late '90s, early 2000s nostalgia, though! It's awesome that she's in the film, getting the recognition she deserves and certainly the money she asked for. However, it's disappointing that Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera, who truly shine, aren't part of it. Trying to paint their absence as related to baseless accusations is unfair: these ladies are NOT ANTIS3MIT3S !!! They just courageously spoke out against a genocide in Palestine!!!! Anyway, I've decided to boycott this film, as I do with any that support Israel or contribute to the ongoing Palestinian crisis or to conflate any criticism of Israel with antis3mitism.

[@natex4398]

Lol she was in scream 5, and it was a flop. Scream 6 only did numbers cause of Jenna Ortega and Mellisa. But they can afford to pay her only for scream 7 to be flopped on again.

[@user-ub5go8gt4u]

Why Kevin Williamson not writing the movie as well?

[@bobcobb3654]

Who says he isn’t? Directors, especially ones with writing backgrounds, rewrite scripts all the time, even if they don’t get a credit. Now that they’ve had a casting change, at least one rewrite is inevitable.

[@joann3190]

Glad she is back! I hated the last scream movie, it sucked without the original main character.

[@matthewchurchyard8552]

Really shows how many people are willing to flush their principle down the toilet the minute Neve Comes back to the franchise - as a life long scream fan I thought we were better than that

[@kayprivate2720]

You do understand this woman loves this franchise. She refused to come back cause of a pay dispute. No one left or quit on her behalf. Skeet, Coutney, David, all of them came back. None of the cast did anything. Melissa being fired has zero to do with neve. Its a mess. This company is a mess. Which is why I'm sure Kevin and Neve came back together to at least try to save this franchise Wes built. She could have just turned it down again and let the franchise get run into the ground, but she clearly didn't want that to happen and the company was probably desperate and paid her what she was due. I'm sure Kevin back on board probably helped too. thinking Spyglass is gonna sell the rights, so Melissa and Neve and everyone can come all back together, is insane and not gonna happen. SO i understand.

[@EvaDuran-ut1ge]

About Stu

[@ridhaakenny]

What she should have done to be able to return is for asking to have Melissa Barrera back for scream 7. Humanity over everything!!!!

[@lollipoplola8350]

I get that Melissa was fired for the wrong reasons but if we’re being honest neve doesn’t owe Melissa anything, neve is the backbone of this franchise and Melissa only came on board in 5

[@KIKROX86]

She had to come back it will fail without her since the other two actresses are gone

[@paulinegallagher7821]

Why cant Kevin write it instead of direct it? the biggest problem with the last five movies is that they were badly written, relying too much on the tropes and dialogue from the previous movies. That made them extremely dated. If Kevin was astute enough to capture the teen speak form the 1990s, he could try and come up with a more accurate depiction of what kids today are like (or a more tolerable version of it anyway)

[@traydaniel0403]

As much as I’m glad that Neve is coming back as Sidney, then rehire Melissa Barrera. I still hate Spyglass for what they did to her, and for killing off Dewey like that. He, Sidney, and Gale deserved happy ending. Hope Hayden Panettiere comes back as Kirby, Courteney Cox as Gale Weather, Matthew Lizard as Stu, David Arquette as Dewey Riley (similar like they did to Billy Loomis when he appears in Sidney and Gale’s visions), and Patrick Dempsey as Mark Kincaid (Sidney’s husband). I also hope they all survived

[@onlinecitizen3266]

I still hate what Spyglass did to Melissa Barrera. But I'm pretty happy to hear Neve Campbell is back with her flagship franchise. My bitterness with Spyglass' overblown BS firing of an actress who dared to callout atrocities (it shouldn't matter who is committing them!) means I'll definitely wait to see if reviews are glowing for Scream 7. No opening night for me; maybe no theater watch at all depending...

[@paulinegallagher7821]

They were right to fire her. Hollywood was built by, and continues to be run by staunch supporters of Israel. Dont like it, dont work there.

[@havealot2say]

So, fire the Latina actress, refuse to pay the other Latina more money, and then pay the white actress more money? Spyglass should just show their colors and have Ghostface don a Klans costume.

There are new films coming out constantly. Why keep making these sequels. 1 Fans love them, 2 the last two scored high with critics & audiences on rotten tomatoes, 3 the last 2 were a box office success. No one's forcing you to watch it, if anything is pathetic, IT'S YOU. Now crawl back under your bridge and the rest of us SCREAM fans will continue to enjoy this beloved franchise, as you can see from all all the positive comments above. If you have nothing intelligent or valid to say, SHUT IT.

[@roguemystique7]

They DO make new stuff. Whether you like it or not is your own prerogative. Coming onto Scream news just to shit on it is so bizarre! Especially after mentioning your dislike for multiple sequels, then why do you even comment? Why not move on to a movie or show you do like and comment something positive. Honestly, people are just weird, lol. Cool, you don't like it, but there's thousands of Scream fans who do love Ghostface and Scream. Just how there's people who love jigsaw, Michael, Freddy, Jason, and so on.
