Neve Campbell announced back in June 2022 she was leaving the “Scream” franchise because she didn’t feel she was being properly compensated to reprise her role of Sidney Prescott in the sixth installment.

Campbell, however, shared that she can see herself coming back some day “under the right circumstances,”.

"I honestly don’t have no idea what their plans are,” she said. “I know a lot has gone on around it and I’m sure they’re spinning a little bit at the moment.”

She continued, “These movies mean a lot to us and they mean a lot to the fans. I go to these conventions sometimes and I meet the fans and they’re frantic about these films. They love them. These films mean a lot to them and these characters mean a lot to them. So even for their sake, I would love to see it continue.”

That said, it’s unclear what is happening with the franchise at the moment after director Christopher Landon dropped out of the seventh movie. 

Landon’s exit came shortly after star Jenna Ortega announced she was not return due to scheduling conflicts with her “Wednesday” production calendar after her co-star Melissa Barrera was fired over social media posts about the Israel-Palestine conflict. 

Both actors starred in the fifth and sixth “Scream” movies.
