Scream creator Kevin Williamson has addressed Neve Campbell’s decision to sit out of the franchise’s latest instalment due to a salary dispute, urging film studio Paramount Pictures to “pay her the money”.
Campbell, 49, has been the horror-slasher franchise’s recurring lead since its debut film in 1996. However, last year, she announced she would not be returning for 2023’s Scream 6, claiming the studio’s offer “did not equate to the value I have brought to the franchise”.
