The cast for Scream 7 continues to grow with the addition of Sam Rechner (The Fabelmans) who will join Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, Celeste O’Connor, McKenna Grace, and Isabel May.
Deadline notes, “No word on the character he’s playing.”
Sam Rechner played Logan Hall in Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans, a high school bully who targets the main character. He also starred in the TV series Heartbreak High.
This next chapter of Scream will involve a “big time jump” following the events of the last movie. This is so that Sidney’s children have grown to an appropriate slasher movie age.
It was also previously reported that Scream 7 “will have two main storylines, one about Sid and her friends from the neighborhood, and the second one about Sid’s teen daughter Taylor (could be a codename) and her friends. Each of them will have to deal with Ghostface.”
Sid and Gale will reportedly find themselves facing off with some kind of Ghostface cult. Courteney Cox will return as Gale Weathers, and Patrick Dempsey as Detective Mark Kincaid.
Scream creator and writer Kevin Williamson is set to direct Scream VII and Guy Busick, writer of 2022’s Scream and Scream VI, is penning the screenplay.
The seventh installment of the franchise will slash into theaters on February 27, 2026.
