Deadline is confirming that 1883 actress Isabel May is definitely playing the daughter of Neve Campbell’s Sidney Prescott in Spyglass Media Group’s upcoming Scream 7. The deal is reportedly locked. May has made a big splash for herself as Elsa Dutton in the Yellowstone prequel Paramount+ series, 1883. She also went on to play the character in its continuation series, 1923.
The latest Scream continues on with original OG castmember Campbell, but also Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers. Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera, who both made waves in the last two movies, 2022’s Scream and Scream VI, aren’t starring in the latest iteration as previously reported. Ortega exited due to her busy schedule on Wednesday among other projects. Barrera was fired last year after her social media posts centering around the Israel-Hamas war.
Paramount is releasing this seventhquel, just like it did the last two movies. This one comes out on February 27, 2026.
