What We Know About Scream 7
As forScream 7, much of the film is being kept under wraps, which fully tracks.
The production team has always kept things rather tight-lipped, a practice that has gotten all the more serious over the nearly three decades since the first title slashed its way into cinemas.
Theres a decent chance thatCourteney Cox will reprise her role as Gale Weathersandeven more likely that Patrick Dempsey will return to the foldfor the first time since 2000sScream 3as Detective Mark Kincaid, who we know to be married to Campbells Sidney Prescott.
With the overhauling following the firing ofMelissa BarreraandJenna Ortegas decision to step back, its unclear how theyll handle the younger cast, but the addition of OConnor and May shows that a plan is taking shape.
