Just in time for Halloween, Paramount Pictures has unleashed the first trailer for Scream 7, the latest in the iconic slasher franchise set to hit theaters on February 27, 2026.
Starring an absolute murderer's row of Scream alumni in the cast, including, of course, Neve Campbell as final girl Sidney Prescott (marking her return to the series after she was missing from Radio Silence's Scream 6), Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers, Mason Gooding and Jasmin Savoy-Brown as Chad and Mindy Meeks-Martin respectively, and David Arquette, Scott Foley and Matthew Lillard as Dewey, Roman and Stu returning respectively (somehow, despite having met their own grisly fates in Scream films past!)
New additions to the cast include Isabel May as Sidney's daughter, McKenna Grace, Sam Rechner, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, Anna Camp ,Mark Consuelos , Joel McHale as Sidney's husband, and Ethan Embry. Phew!
An official synopsis for Scream 7, described very much as a Sidney-focussed story, reads:
When a new Ghostface killer emerges in the quiet town where Sidney Prescott (Campbell) has built a new life, her darkest fears are realized as her daughter (May) becomes the next target. Determined to protect her family, Sidney must face the horrors of her past to put an end to the bloodshed once and for all.
Kevin Williamson, who wrote the original Scream, is stepping into the director’s chair for Ghostface's seventh slashfest, with Guy Busick, who was involved in the previous two installments, penning the screenplay.
