Neve Campbell has confirmed she will appear in Scream 8, saying she will reprise her role as Sidney Prescott. Campbell declined to give further details about the film, according to joblo.com.
Scream 8 is being written by Lilla Zuckerman and Nora Zuckerman. No director is attached to the project yet.
Campbell returned to the franchise for Scream 7 after sitting out Scream VI in a pay dispute. Scream 7 introduced Sidney's husband Mark, played by Joel McHale, and her daughter Tatum, played by Isobel May.
The seventh film grossed over $213 million worldwide, a series record, but drew the franchise's worst reviews. Melissa Barrera was fired by Spyglass Media over pro-Palestinian social media posts the company deemed anti-Semitic and did not appear in the film, and Jenna Ortega also did not return.
