Fear Hits Home in New ‘Scream 7’ Big Game Trailer

Scream 7 is coming to theaters this month, and Ghostface is slicing into a new TV spot set to air during the NFL’s “Big Game”, but it has already been released online today, featuring some new footage, along with a new poster that recalls the original.

The new poster features Neve Campbell’s Sidney in a black and white closeup that pays homage to the original poster for the 1996 first Scream movie, which featured Drew Barrymore’s face in a similar way.

The official synopsis for Scream 7: When a new Ghostface killer emerges in the quiet town where Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has built a new life, her darkest fears are realized as her daughter (Isabel May) becomes the next target. Determined to protect her family, Sidney must face the horrors of her past to put an end to the bloodshed once and for all.

The new Ghostface sequel brings back Neve Campbell reprising her role as Sidney Prescott (now Sidney Evans), as well as Courteney Cox as Gail Weathers, Jasmin Savoy Brown as Mindy Meeks-Martin, and Mason Gooding as Chad Meeks-Martin, along with new blood Isobel May as Sydney’s daughter, Celeste O’Connor (Ghostbusters: Afterlife), Mckenna Grace (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire), Sam Rechner (The Fabelmans), Asa Germann (The Boys), Mark Consuelos, and Anna Camp (Hysteria, True Blood).

Two former Ghostface killers, Matthew Lillard from the original Scream and Scott Foley from Scream 3 are also in the film, though in exactly what capacity or to what extent we still don’t know. Lillard of course played Stu Macher in the first Scream, revealed to be one of the two original Ghostface killers before he was seemingly killed, and the actor has made no secret in recent years of his desire to return to the role and his belief that Stu somehow survived. Foley played Sydney’s half-brother Roman in Scream 3.

Roger L. Jackson once again is the voice of Ghostface.

Franchise creator Kevin Williamson (writer of Scream, Scream 2, and Scream 4) returns to direct the new movie, from a script by Guy Busick, who also co-wrote 2022’s Scream and 2023’s Scream VI.

Scream 7 will be officially released in theaters on February 27, 2026, with special fan event early screenings happening on February 26.
