The new installment of Scream is coming together. After a successful relaunch with the fifth installment starring Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera and a new milestone with the sixth installment, which resulted in the highest domestic box office gross with over $108 million and $169 million worldwide, a new cast and storyline is now in the works.
While details about the new storyline and its link to the 2022 movie, the cast for Scream 7 has already been revealed, with Mark Consuelos being the latest star to be involved in the project, produced by Spyglass and Paramount Pictures.
Mark joins some of the legacy cast members who are coming back to continue the franchise, including Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox. Mason Gooding and Jasmin Savoy Brown, who played siblings since the relaunch, are also back to play their roles.
Isabel May, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, Mckenna Grace, Sam Rechner, Anna Camp, and Joel McHale will be part of the new installment, with the franchise creator Kevin Williamson directing and Guy Busick (2022’s Scream and Scream VI) writing.
Mark continues his film career after his recurring role in HBO Max’s political drama series 'The Girls on the Bus.' The 'Live with Kelly & Mark' host recently appeared in 'Only Murders in the Building' playing the role of Mabel’s father.
The 'Riverdale' actor also has appeared on 'How I Met Your Father,' 'Broad City,' 'The Night Shift,' 'Queen of the South' and 'Ugly Betty' among other projects.
Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera will not be returning:
While the two lead stars will not be returning to play their fan-favorite roles, the pair are still booked and busy, with Melissa recently starring in the horror-comedy film 'Your Monster' and Jenna preparing for the release of the highly anticipated season of 'Wednesday.'
