The February 27, 2026 theatrical release of the slasher sequel Scream 7 is swiftly approaching, and today a featurette has been unveiled to give us a behind-the-scenes look at the film with director Kevin Williamson! Troubled HistorySpyglass Media and Paramount once intended to make a Scream 7 that would have starred Scream (2022) and Scream VI leads Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, with Freaky and Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon at the helm. But then Ortega allegedly asked for a substantial pay raise – and as we saw when Neve Campbell dropped out of Scream VI due to a pay dispute, these pay issues don’t tend to work out. Also in the cast are Matthew Lillard and Scott Foley, who played Ghostface killers in the original Scream and Scream 3, respectively, and did not appear to make it out of those movies alive. Take a look at the Kevin Williamson featurette, then let us know if you’re looking forward to Scream 7 by leaving a comment below.
