Scott Foley, who had a job in Scream 3 (and was killed off), has signed on to hitch Neve Campbell within the forged of Scream 7
Are we in for extra visitations from the ghosts of Ghostfaces previous? Regardless of being killed off within the first Scream again in 1996, Ghostface killer Skeet Ulrich lingered within the thoughts of one of many lead characters in Scream (2022) and its follow-up Scream VI… and now Scott Foley, who performed the Ghostface killer in Scream 3 again in 2000, has signed on to hitch the forged of the currently-in-production Scream 7. As Deadline notes, Foley performed “antagonist Roman Bridger, the film director and half-brother of Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell)” in Scream 3. Ulrich’s character was seen in hallucinations had by his daughter in the latest Scream sequels, so possibly Sidney can be having hallucinations of her useless half-brother within the new movie. Or possibly they’ll work Foley into this one another way…
Deadline wrote, “Roman has faked his own death before so it’s plausible that he could reprise the role in the present or perhaps in flashback form in the past if he is deceased. Could Roman have a long-lost twin? This is Scream after all, so if he returns as a ghost (face killer?) or a zombie, it would not shock most. There are so many possibilities here that I defer to franchise superfans to figure out.”
Spyglass Media and Paramount Footage as soon as supposed to make a Scream 7 that may have starred Scream (2022) and Scream VI leads Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, with Freaky and Comfortable Dying Day director Christopher Landon on the helm. However then Ortega allegedly requested for a substantial pay elevate – and as we noticed when Neve Campbell dropped out of Scream VI as a result of a pay dispute, these pay points don’t are likely to work out. Then Barrera was fired from the venture after feedback she made in regards to the Israel-Hamas conflict didn’t go over properly with executives at Spyglass. Landon dropped out the of the venture quickly after. So Scream 7 has been re-developed, Campbell has signed on to return as franchise heroine Sidney Prescott, again within the lead position, whereas Kevin Williamson, who wrote the screenplay for the unique Scream, directs the movie from a screenplay by 2022’s Scream and Scream VI author Man Busick, who crafted the story along with his co-writer on the fifth and sixth movies, James Vanderbilt. (Vanderbilt can be a producer on the latest sequels.)
