McKenna Grace Rumored to Join ‘Scream 7’ as Sidney’s Eldest Daughter

As a die-hard ‘Scream’ fan who’s been through the rollercoaster ride of sequels since the original hit theaters back in 1996, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and nostalgia as the rumors swirl around ‘Scream 7’. The return of Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott and Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers is like a warm hug from old friends, while the potential addition of McKenna Grace to the cast feels like a fresh breath of air.


Fans of the ‘Scream’ franchise are eagerly anticipating, as it appears the next movie, tentatively titled ‘Scream 7,’ is set to begin filming by the end of this year. The chatter surrounding this upcoming horror flick has been growing, particularly with speculation that McKenna Grace, recognized for her role in ‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife,’ could join the cast as Sidney Prescott’s grown-up daughter named Tatum.

As a dedicated fan of the franchise, I’ve been buzzing with excitement ever since Daniel Richtman hinted at Grace possibly joining the cast. And guess what? Neve Campbell is coming back as Sidney Prescott, and that’s not all! Courteney Cox herself has confirmed to US Magazine that she’ll be stepping back into her beloved role as Gale Weathers. After narrowly cheating death in the last movie, I can hardly wait to see what’s in store for these iconic characters!

As your freshly appointed director Kevin Williamson, partnering with Campbell, I’m thrilled to share that our upcoming horror masterpiece, tentatively titled ‘Scream 7,’ is scheduled for a chilling premiere on February 27, 2026! Brace yourself for a spine-tingling tale with not one but two interwoven storylines. One thread will delve into the lives of Sidney and her beloved town friends, while the other will shine a spotlight on her daughter, ‘Taylor’—a working title—and her circle, as they each grapple with the relentless Ghostface terror.

As a dedicated fan, I’ve picked up an intriguing whisper that the upcoming storyline could introduce a chilling Ghostface cult, presenting a fresh danger to Sidney, Gale, and a new group of characters who are determined to safeguard Sidney’s family. There’s buzz about a substantial leap forward in time to mature Sidney’s children for this slasher tale, and potentially scenes unfolding beyond the ominous boundaries of Woodsboro.

Beyond Cox’s potential reappearance, there are whispers that Patrick Dempsey might be in talks for a second stint as Sidney’s spouse, Detective Mark Kincaid. Yet, following the exits of Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, it remains unclear if Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding will reprise their characters.

The announcement that Neve Campbell will be returning has sparked some debate, following the dismissal of Barrera over posts deemed ‘anti-Semitic’ by Spyglass. However, in a recent interview, Barrera showed a willingness to revisit her role as Sam Carpenter in potential future projects.

She shared that she’s realized it’s best not to make absolute statements like ‘never’, considering her difficult goodbye and the assistance she encountered. As for Sam returning, many circumstances might need to shift, but who can predict what lies ahead in the future?

With each passing day, our eagerness for ‘Scream 7’ intensifies as we eagerly await further information. Will this upcoming installment live up to the franchise’s reputation for delivering heart-pounding scares? Time alone can answer that question, but one thing is certain—we’re on tenterhooks to discover Ghostface’s next terrifying plan.
