Scream 7 Is Bringing Again One other Deceased Ghostface

Something can occur in the unpredictable Scream franchise (each in entrance of and behind the camera) and the upcoming seventh installment isn’t any exception. The forged of the sequel, out in February 2026, has been filling out in current weeks and now it has its most curious addition but. Scott Foley, who performed Roman Bridger, aka the Ghostface killer in Scream 3, is returning to the franchise.

Deadline broke the information of Foley’s casting however didn’t affirm whether or not or not he’s taking part in Bridger once more. Which is smart for a couple of causes. The primary one is Bridger was killed in Scream 3 after revealing he was Sidney’s (Neve Campbell) half-brother and the mastermind behind the killings within the authentic film. The opposite is, if Foley is Bridger, it’s in all probability an enormous spoiler. That is Scream although, and so far, nothing supernatural has occurred within the franchise. So whereas we don’t know if he’s taking part in Roman Bridger once more, we’ve to think about he’s. Plus, don’t overlook, Skeet Ulrich returned for each the fifth and sixth installments regardless of having been killed within the first movie. He was seen within the thoughts of his daughter, Sam (Melissa Barrera, who was fired from Scream 7 after she posted concerning the Israel-Hamas warfare on her social media).

So, let’s speculate a bit. The obvious choices listed below are that Roman returns in a flashback, maybe to unravel additional layers to his grasp plan, or that he’s received an equivalent twin. Both would work simply advantageous within the always-wild world of Scream. Particularly since Roman  was a filmmaker and will have very simply filmed some movies that Sidney and her household unearth in a roundabout way.

However what if it’s one thing else? May there simply randomly be a doppelganger strolling round? May Scream be making the soar into the supernatural and we see Roman as some kind of spirit? Neither sounds as satisfying when it comes to narrative, however that is the seventh installment and it is perhaps time to shake issues up a bit, particularly because the storyline of the earlier two movies is basically going away.

We don’t understand how Foley can be a part of the story, however we’ve to say it’s by far essentially the most thrilling piece of reports surrounding the sequel so far. Written and directed by franchise creator Kevin Williamson, the seventh Scream brings again authentic franchise mainstays Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox, new regulars Mason Gooding and Jasmin Savoy Brown, and loads of newcomers similar to Mckenna Grace, Anna Camp, Joel McHale, and Mark Consuelos. It’s out on February 27, 2026.
