If you’re still recovering from last week’s streaming debut of the body-horror comedy Slanted, grab your popcorn and lock your doors. Paramount+ is keeping the adrenaline spiked. Scream 7, the latest meta-slasher extravaganza in the iconic franchise, is now streaming in the US and Canada.
The film is directed by Kevin Williamson, the mastermind who wrote the original 1996 masterpiece. The screenplay is by Williamson and Guy Busick (story by James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick).
New Town, Same Bloody Problems
Just when Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) thought it was safe to enjoy a quiet, trauma-free existence, a new Ghostface emerges to ruin the vibe. This time, the stakes are painfully personal: Sidney’s daughter (Isabel May) is the prime target. To save her family, the ultimate Final Girl has to confront her past and show this copycat killer how the pros handle business.
A Cast to Die For
The ensemble features a wildly stacked lineup of returning favorites, franchise legends, and fresh meat: franchise icons Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox are back. They are joined by Ghostface survivors Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding. The sequel features new wild cards Isabel May, Anna Camp, David Arquette, Roger L. Jackson, Michelle Randolph, Jimmy Tatro, McKenna Grace, Asa Germann, Celeste O’Connor, Sam Rechner, Ethan Embry, Mark Consuelos, Tim Simons, Joel McHale, and… Matthew Lillard? (We’ll let you watch to see how that math works out).
Box Office Carnage
After slashing through theaters worldwide this past February via Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Media Group, Scream 7 didn’t just beat the competition—it completely butchered it. The film carved out over $214 million worldwide, officially making it the highest-grossing installment in the franchise’s 30-year history. Clearly, audiences still love a good jump scare.
