Scream 7’s opening kill scene could star a returning character like Neve Campbell’s final girl Sidney Prescott, which would be a unique choice.
There are many opinions about Scream 7 since horror fans have been waiting for the sequel since Scream 6 was in theaters in March 2023. While audiences like discussing who Ghostface could be and wondering if the rules of horror will be a focal point of Scream 7, there is another big topic on people’s minds: the opening kill scene. Although of course some are better and more unique than others, the general feeling is that every Scream opening sequence is engaging and fits the silly yet smart tone of the franchise.
With Neve Campbell playing Sidney Prescott, the final girl who is one of her most well-known roles, it’s interesting to think about whether a major character could battle Ghostface in the Scream 7 opening scene. There are definitely some pros and cons to this idea. Why A Legacy Character In The Scream 7 Opening Kill Scene Would And Wouldn’t Work
There are a few reasons why it would be compelling to have a legacy character in the Scream 7 opening sequence. As of now, Sidney Prescott is the only confirmed main character who is coming back, and it’s unknown if Courteney Cox will return and Gale Weathers will have a new storyline. If Sidney or Gale was in the opening scene, they would have to survive since fans would most likely be upset otherwise. It would also be a shame to bring these characters back only to have them die in the first ten minutes.
