Williamon believes Campbell deserves to be paid more in order for her to return to the slasher franchise.
The Big Picture Scream creator and executive producer Kevin Williamson is advocating for former star Neve Campbell to return to the horror franchise with a higher pay package. Speaking on the Happy Horror Time podcast this week, Williamson spoke about his admiration for the actress, believing she should be paid more for her role as Sidney Prescott and hinting there will be plenty of opportunities for her to make a comeback.
In the interview with podcast hosts Tim Murdock and Matt Emert, Williamson spoke highly of Campbell and what she brought to the franchise. “I know her well. I love and adore her, and that’s what she did and it’s great for her,” he said, revealing his admiration for Campbell’s portrayal of Prescott for the first five films. He understands why the actress did not reprise her role for the sixth installment, which premiered in March this year and grossed $168 million at the global box office .
Why Did Campbell Leave the Franchise? In June 2022, Campbell publicly revealed why she would not appear in Scream VI. “As a woman, I have had to work extremely hard in my career to establish my value, especially when it comes to Scream,” the actress, who has most recently appeared in television series The Lincoln Lawyer and Twisted Metal, said in a statement last year.
The Scream franchise first hit cinemas in December 1996, with the first four films focusing on Sidney Prescott as she tries to avoid murderers known as ‘Ghostface.’ Twenty-five years after the fourth film, Ghostface made a return in the fifth installment released last year , with the latest film in the series focusing on sisters Sam and Tara Carpenter as they try to prove their innocence and reveal the identity of the newest Ghostface.
All Scream films are currently streaming on Paramount + or are available to purchase on Apple TV and Amazon Prime. In the meantime, check out the official trailer for the sixth installment below:
