Sidney Prescott Is Much Fiercer In New Scream Movie, Says Neve Campell

Neve Campbell says that the Sidney Prescott in Scream 2022 is fiercer than ever. Coming to theaters on January 14, Scream is the fifth entry in the long-running horror franchise that began with Wes Craven's 1996 meta slasher classic. Although the master of horror passed away in 2015, making 2011's Scream 4 his final film, his shoes are being filled by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, the directing duo behind the 2019 horror-comedy Ready or Not.

Throughout all four movies, Neve Campbell's character Sidney Prescott has been the center of a long series of serial slayings by different characters donning the signature Ghostface mask and robes. She begins the series as a tortured teenager grieving the murder of her mother and by 2000's Scream 3 blossoms into a hardened fighter who is well-versed in taking down psycho killers.

I can’t tell you a whole lot, but I can tell you that she’s in a good place in her life and she’s a mother now. Which I think gives her a whole other level of fierceness. And she’s… yeah, she’s content. And then of course chaos ensues. Because it’s a Scream movie, you know, Scream 2022 will see Sidney Prescott reunited with her frequent companions, ex-Sheriff Dewey Riley and his ex-wife, hard-nosed journalist Gale Weathers when Dewey is approached by potential new Final Girl Sam Carpenter . She is being threatened by a new iteration of Ghostface who seems to be tracking down people who were related to the original killers from the first four movies.

While details of the plot of Scream are still fully under wraps, it will be intriguing to see how Sidney's new character dynamic allows her to progress through the newfound threat in the film. It's not clear that the killer is even specifically targeting her, but even if she's not the main focus, she still puts herself directly in the path of danger by returning to Woodsboro.
