Coming off from starring in the recent, Mckenna Grace has officially found her next horror project. The rising scream queen has been tapped to join the Scream 7 cast for the newest installment of Paramount Pictures‘ long-running horror slasher franchise.
Grace is no stranger to the horror genre. Aside from her portrayal of Phoebe Spengler in the Ghostbusters franchise, she also starred in 2019’s Annabelle Comes Home, and in 2021’s Malignant. She also had key roles in Netflix shows like The Haunting of Hill House and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Grace will next in the several other upcoming projects such as the Kerri Strug biopic Perfect, the thriller drama Anniversary, and the family drama Regretting You.
Scream 7 will feature the return of franchise vets Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox as they reprise their respective fan-favorite roles as Sidney Prescott and Gale Weathers. In a previous interview, Grey’s Anatomy alum Patrick Dempsey had confirmed that he already had conversations about potentially reprising his role as Sidney’s love interest Mark Kincaid from 2000’s Scream 3. In addition, one of the original Ghostface actors, Matthew Lillard, has also expressed his interest in returning as Stu, despite the villain’s apparent death in the original movie.
Besides Grace, Isabel May, Celeste O’Connor and Asa Germann have also joined the project. At the moment, it’s still unclear if surviving characters from the last two sequels, including Jasmin Savoy Brown’s Mindy Meeks-Martin and Mason Gooding’s Chad Meeks-Martin, will also be returning after Melissa Barrera’s controversial dismissal from the project. The seventh installment will be directed by franchise creator Kevin Williamson from a screenplay written by Guy Busick. It is produced by Paul Neinstein, William Sherak, and James Vanderbilt.
