Melissa Barrera feels like her 'Scream' character arc gave her "closure". The 33-year-old actress played Sam Carpenter - the daughter of 1996 'Scream' movie killer Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) - in 2022's 'Scream' and its sequel 'Scream VI, but she was fired from upcoming flick 'Scream 7' due to her publicly pro-Palestinian stance. Her character's story dealt with the idea of whether the connection to her father meant Sam was always meant to be a murderer, but she was seen throwing her father's mask onto the concrete below. Speaking to Collider's Perri Nemiroff for 'Ladies Night', she said: "I ...

Melissa Barrera has no ill feelings after being axed from the 'Scream' franchise over her pro-Palestinian social media posts. The 33-year-old Mexican actress played Sam Carpenter - the illegitimate daughter of original Ghostface killer Billy Loomis and survivor of the Woodsboro murders - in the fifth and sixth instalments in the slasher franchise, but she was dropped from 'Scream VII' by production company Spyglass who deemed her posts on Instagram calling for an end to Israel's bombing of Gaza and reference to Israel as a "colonised country" to be antisemitic. Melissa insists she will forever...

Neve Campbell isn't ruling out a return to the 'Scream' franchise - if she's paid fairly. The 50-year-old actress, who portrayed Sidney Prescott for more than two decades, starting with the 1996 original slasher flick, quit over a dispute over pay in June 2022 and did not appear in 2023's 'Scream VI'. The next movie is in doubt after Melissa Barrera, 33, who played Tara Carpenter’s (Jenna Ortega) half-sister Sam Carpenter, was fired from the film over comments she made regarding the Israel-Hamas conflict. Jenna, 21, later exited the film due to a scheduling conflict with the second season of t...

Jasmin Savoy Brown says horror movies tend to be too “straight and white”. The ‘Scream VI’ star says the genre “never interested” her before she got cast in the Wes Craven-created franchise - which made a star out of Neve Campbell and still features some of the original cast like Courteney Cox and David Arquette. The 29-year-old actress told Elle magazine: “I was never interested in horror because it was just so straight and white. That’s just not interesting to me, aside from my one white woman show a year, which was ‘Big Little Lies’ and then ‘The White Lotus’.” Jasmin admitted that her char...

The duo, who are part of production company Radio Silence, told Collider: “We found out early on in pre-production that Neve wasn't gonna do this one...
