Are you a fan of Pitch Perfect? How about the Peacock series Hysteria!? Well you’re in luck because the star of both of those projects, Anna Camp, is joining the cast of Scream 7. Deadline is reporting that the actress has signed on for the seventh installment of the long-running horror slasher franchise.
What about her character? Well, like the rest of the plot for the seventh movie, it’s a mystery. What we do know is that Camp is joining other actors like Neve Campbell, Mason Gooding, Isabel May, McKenna Grace, and Celeste O’Connor. Isabel May will play Sidney Prescott’s daughter in the film. Gooding will reprise his role as Chad Meeks-Martin from Scream 5/6.
Scream 7 is set to hit theaters on February 27th, 2026. It’s directed by franchise steward Kevin Williamson with a script from Guy Busick. James Vanderbilt, William Sherak, and Paul Neinstein will produce for Project X Entertainment.
Who Is Anna Camp? And What Happened Behind The Scenes With Scream 7?
Anna Camp is best known for starring in Pitch Perfect but she’s also been in projects like Jerry and Marge Go Large, The Help, True Blood, Good Girls Revolt, Creepshow’s Holiday Special, and The Mindy Project. She also has the movie Bride Hard coming up with Rebel Wilson, she’ll also be in the final season of You on Netflix.
Scream 7 has seen some major turmoil behind the scenes even before it went into production. It was originally set to be directed by Christopher Landon with Radio Silence dropping out to direct Abigail and Ready Or Not 2. Scream 5 and VI star Melissa Barerra was fired by Spyglass Media for her comments on the Israel-Palestine conflict. Jenna Ortega also had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts with Wednesday and other projects. The two leading ladies signaled the end of that era of the franchise. Landon dropped out as director soon after. Kevin Williamson was brought on in his stead to direct the film with a script from Guy Busick and James Vanderbilt.
