The reboot of the Scream franchise by Radio Silence for Spyglass and Paramount has gained its biggest name from the original to date with Neve Campbell signing up to reprise the role of Sidney Prescott.

David Arquette and Courteney Cox had already signed up to appear alongside Jack Quaid, Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega.

Radio Silence said, “We’re pinching ourselves! It’s hard to express how much the character Sidney Prescott shaped our love of movies and to have the chance to work with Neve is truly a dream come true. It just wouldn’t be a ‘Scream’ movie without Neve and we’re so excited and honored to join her in Woodsboro.”

Campbell said, “After spending time speaking with Radio Silence, they have shown such love, respect and admiration for Wes Craven and all that he’s created in the ‘Scream’ franchise. I am beyond excited to step back into the role of Sidney Prescott and return to Woodsboro.”

The movie will shoot in North Carolina for a January 14, 2022 worldwide premiere.
