'Scream 7' in Limbo as Cast and Director Exit Amid Controversy

Neve Campbell expresses willingness to return to franchise, while Melissa Barrera reflects positively on her time despite controversial exit.

Neve Campbell, who played Sidney Prescott in the original 'Scream' series, has expressed willingness to return to the franchise for 'Scream 7', provided she is offered fair compensation.
Melissa Barrera, who starred in the latest 'Scream' movies, was fired from the franchise in November 2023 due to social media posts about the Israel-Hamas conflict that were deemed antisemitic by the production company, Spyglass Media Group.
Following Barrera's exit, her co-star Jenna Ortega and director Christopher Landon also left the project, leaving 'Scream 7' without any major stars, a director, or a writer.
Barrera has expressed gratitude for her time in the franchise and maintains a good relationship with her cast members.
The future of the 'Scream' franchise remains uncertain, with no clear plans for 'Scream 7' announced yet.
