LONG THAI
With Halloween nearly slipping into the rearview of 2025, Paramount Pictures has paused just long enough to make the run‑up to spooky season all about Scream. The studio has everyone buzzing again thanks to the announcement that Neve Campbell will return as Sidney Prescott in Scream 7 next year.
The trailer wastes no time getting to the horror/comedy slasher delight that Scream is known for, showing Blue Mountain State actor and comedian YouTuber Jimmy Tatro and his girlfriend entering 261 Turner Lane, which has been remodeled into an Airbnb despite the gruesome murders that happened there in the first Scream. But alas, they get bamboozled by an actual new Ghostface hacking them up to bits moments after getting distracted by an anamorphic Ghostface on display in the house. Classic Ghostface!
We then see the return of legacy character Sidney, who has built a new life for herself and her daughter, played by Isabel May. However, Sidney is abruptly pulled back into the chaos of Ghostface as the new killer taunts her by threatening to upend their quiet lives by using the above murder to challenge and torment them as his next victims.
Apparently, this new Ghostface, despite the franchise sequels practically wringing the rag dry with how many people she knew from her childhood turning out to be the maniacal slasher, is also someone who claims to have known her and wishes to torment her with a cold call behind a voice changer. While Sidney is on her Sarah Connor vibe, calling Ghostface everything outside of a coward for his whole hide-and-seek rigmarole, Ghostface says he’s not hiding this time. And sure enough, dude wasn’t kidding, he’s popping out like Batman from the attic and sitting up like Michael Myers hunting Sidney and her daughter down, promising not to hurt her daughter unless Sydney can get a front-row seat to witness it. Enter Mama Bear Sidney.
Whether you’re morbidly curious or genuinely excited to see how these narrative and metanarrative mysteries unfurl, all will be answered when Scream 7 hits theaters on February 27, 2026.
