Neve Campbell is back as Sidney Prescott in Spyglass Media Group’s upcoming Scream VII, and she’s bringing her daughter along for the terror. Deadline reports that 1883 actress Isabel May is confirmed to play Sidney’s daughter in the sequel.
The seventh installment will hit theaters on February 27, 2026.
Original Scream scribe Kevin Williamson will direct Scream 7. The film, which is currently untitled, was written by Guy Busick from a story by James Vanderbilt & Guy Busick.
According to Neve Campbell, the upcoming seventh installment will be a return to the franchise’s roots in the sense that Sidney Prescott will be the central character of the movie. Isabel May’s casting certainly supports that and also indicates a huge time jump since the last entry. At least, considering that Sidney sat out Scream VI to take care of her small children. Either way, Scream VII seems to make Ghostface slaying a family affair.
Courteney Cox is expected to return as Gale Weathers but hasn’t officially signed on yet.
Sidney was featured as a supporting character in 2022’s Scream, while Campbell infamously did not return for the following year’s Scream VI due to a pay dispute. Those two movies, both directed by the filmmakers Radio Silence (Abigail), mixed a new generation of characters with the legacy characters, but much has happened since Scream VI was released last year.
The franchise has been mired in controversy in the past several months, with new series leadsMelissa Barrera and Jenna Ortegaboth exiting the project.Barrera was fired, whileit was subsequently announced that Ortega wouldn’t be returning.At this time, we still don’t know if Jasmin Savoy Brown or Mason Gooding will be returning for Scream 7.
Producers are Project X Entertainment’s James Vanderbilt, William Sherak, and Paul Neinstein.
