Neve Campbell is back as Sidney Prescott in 'Scream 7' official trailer
Neve Campbell is back in the "Scream 7" official trailer.
Paramount Pictures and Spyglass released the trailer for the upcoming horror film on Thursday.
The new film follows what happens "when a new Ghostface killer emerges in the quiet town where Sidney Prescott (Campbell) has built a new life," according to its official synopsis. "Her darkest fears are realized as her daughter (Isabel 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."
The trailer starts with a couple checking in to stay at the original "Scream" house, which is now an Airbnb. After we see the pair get attacked by a Ghostface killer, the trailer cuts to Sidney Prescott receiving a sinister phone call.
"Hello, Sidney. Did you miss me?" The mysterious caller says. "Nice little town you've found. You and your pretty daughter. Reminds me of where we grew up."
The trailer ends with a line of dialogue that fans believe sounds like franchise veteran Matthew Lillard's voice.
"This is gonna be fun," the voice says.
"Scream 7" comes three years after Campbell announced that she wouldn't return to the franchise due to a salary dispute.
It was announced in March 2024 that the actress would be joining the franchise again as Sidney Prescott for the seventh film in the series.
"I'm really excited about it," Campbell told "Good Morning America" in July 2024. "You Never expect a movie to be as successful as that and you never expect a movie to turn into a franchise. For a film like that, with a horror movie, you would hope that perhaps that can happen, but for it to become such a part of pop culture is beyond."
Along with Campbell making her "Scream" return, this seventh film in the franchise finds Courteney Cox returning as Gale Weathers. The cast also includes Jasmin Savoy Brown, Mason Gooding, Anna Camp, Joel McHale, Mckenna Grace, Michelle Randolph, Jimmy Tatro, Asa Germann, Celeste O’Connor, Ethan Embry, Timothy Simons and Mark Consuelos.
Kevin Williamson directs the film from a script he co-wrote with Guy Busick. Williamson also wrote the original 1996 "Scream" film.
"Scream 7" comes to theaters on Feb. 27, 2026.
