Big news for Scream VII as star of the last two movies, Mason Gooding, has signed on to reprise his role in the new movie.
Goodling previously played Chad Meeks-Martin along with Jasmin Savoy Brown as his twin sister, Mindy.
Both stars left along with Jenna Ortega when lead actress Melissa Barrera was fired from the franchise after the unforgivable sin of writing things someone didn’t agree with on social media but now Gooding is returning and I’m fully expecting Brown will too.
As for Ortega and Barrera as Tara and Sam Carpenter, it’s unlikely but it would be great to have the ‘core four’ from the last two movies returning.
Barrera has certainly made it clear in the past that she would still be up for coming back, saying: “I’ve learned to never say never, but also a lot of things would have to happen for Sam to come back.”
Gooding joins Neve Campbell, Courtenay Cox, Isabel May, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, Mckenna Grace and Sam Rechner with franchise creator Kevin Williamson on directing duties.
On top of this, we have also learned that Pitch Perfect and Hysteria star Anna Camp has signed on to appear too.
Honestly, this cast is really, really great. I cannot wait for this movie!
Also, we’re still hearing that Patrick Dempsey’s Mark Kincaid is signed on to the new movie as Sidney Prescott’s husband and likely dad to McKenna Grace and Isabel May’s characters. Expect an announcement soon? I sure hope so…
Patrick Dempsey has signed on for #Scream7 . I was able to confirm it from 2 people. His announcement could come this week but Im not sure about it.
Also @CriticalOverlo3 never said that he is not coming back. He just discussed the Rumor that he wants more money.#Scream… pic.twitter.com/T8OGnqy6vy

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
