Sidney Prescott is back, and the news came from none other than Neve Campbell herself.
The actor shared a photo of her script for Scream 7 to Instagram, where she also confirmed that original Scream screenwriter Kevin Williamson will be directing.
Campbell, who just a couple of months ago shared she "would not be surprised to get a call" about her return to the franchise, bowed out of Scream VI over pay negotiations.
And though Scream VI stars Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega have exited the project, Campbell is "so excited" to be returning.
She began her post:
"Hi All. I’m so excited to announce this news!!! Sidney Prescott is coming back!!!!"
"It’s always been such a blast and an honor to get to play Sidney in the Scream movies. My appreciation for these films and for what they have meant to me, has never waned."
"I’m very happy and proud to say I’ve been asked, in the most respectful way, to bring Sidney back to the screen and I couldn’t be more thrilled!!!"
"Well actually I could."
She then shared that Kevin Williamson is set to direct the film.
"While I’ve been so incredibly lucky to make these films with both the master of horror Wes Craven and the wonderfully talented Matt and Tyler team, I’ve dreamt for many years of how amazing it would be to make one of these movies with Kevin Williamson at the helm."
"And now it’s happening, Kevin Williamson is going to direct Scream 7!"
"This was his baby and it’s his brilliant mind that dreamt up this world. Kevin is not just an inspiration as an artist but has been a dear friend for many years."
"To the amazing Scream fans, I hope you are as excited as I am. See you on set @kevwilliamson"
To say that fans are excited about Campbell's return to the franchise would be an understatement.
Welcome back, Sidney!
