GHOSTFACE IS BACK! SEE THE TRAILER AND POSTER ART FOR “SCREAM 7” NOW

Ghostface and his favorite final girl, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), return to theaters on February 27, 2026, with the release of SCREAM 7, directed by series creator/scribe Kevin Williamson. Along with Campbell’s much-anticipated reprise of the fan-favorite character she first played in Wes Craven‘s 1996 original (she famously took a pass on 2023’s Scream VI, the only entry to not feature Sid, due to contract and salary disputes with Paramount), the upcoming installment in the long-running horror franchise sees the return of Courtney Cox‘s Gale Weathers. Also confirmed are David Arquette‘s bumbling Dewey Riley and Matthew Lillard‘s murderous Stu Macher, despite their (apparent) demises. Isabel May, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Mason Gooding, Anna Camp, Joel McHale, Mckenna Grace, Michelle Randolph, Jimmy Tatro, Asa Germann, Celeste O’Connor, Sam Rechner, Ethan Embry, Tim Simons and Mark Consuelos round out the ensemble cast.

SCREAM 7 finds Sidney Prescott building a new life in a small town far from the relentless Woodsboro Slasher and her troubled past. However, her peace is shattered when a new Ghostface dons the mask and robes of Father Death and comes for her daughter, Tatum (Isabel May).

See the new trailer now! (And listen closely to the end!)
