 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here So we're gonna talk about scream 7 in this video here today. I want to basically address something regarding a Big star that we all well not all of us that a lot of us are hoping to see back in Scream 7 and if she is brought back we want to see her used in the best way possible and not just thrown into the mix Because she wasn't able to make it for the last outing So scream 7 we know is a work in progress as we all know a few weeks ago after I saw my favorite horror Movie of the year talked to me I did a video to discuss what I've heard about scream 7 so far at the time What I disclosed was that Christopher Landon was asked to direct radio silence would be producing and the reason they weren't directing is because of their Interest in doing other projects before doing screaming and I also mentioned that everyone is expected back cast wise and then reputable Outlets bigger than myself later that week started confirming those at the time rumors that same week Landon signed prior to the strike the core for our expected back Melissa and Mason being the two that I recall being mentioned in those reputable outlets I think Hollywood reporter was one who mentioned them with mentions of keeping an eye on Jenna since her availability could shift Tara plans if Jenna isn't able to completely commit to the project the way they might intend her to although again I've heard some some rumors about how Tara could be incorporated into the story Which I won't be sharing in this video what I'm just saying I didn't share everything I heard because the list is too long not all of this is worth discussing right now But Sydney Prescott of course is worth discussing a few weeks ago Fandom Empire shout out to you if you know who Fandom Empire is from the Halloween in stuff and from their content They have over on their channel You know who I'm talking about Fandom Empire and I'll even link to their channel in the description They had echoed some stuff I was brushing off initially because I think Sam Carpenter should be our main focus of Scream 7 Fandom Empire though left a comment to me on Twitter stating that they had also heard a new director would do 7 and that radio silence Was stick around to produce which ended up being true now a third part of what they had heard is That Scream 7 wouldn't be a direct follow-up to 6 but rather a Sydney story So two-thirds of the rumor they heard came true So now we just have to wait for that last bit regarding a Sydney-centric film to come to fruition to see if that part is true I Have heard rumblings about that Fandom Empire being one of the content creators. I've heard it from I Do want to shout out beyond the mask who made a video about this Topic I'm about to discuss in July as well as you Nick from the Lost River Driving I'll leave a link to both channels in the description I know these two have heard this same thing I'm about to discuss with Nev and just for the sake of being bold I know that certain more reputable horror outlets have heard this too and Viewer non has actually commented on this not too long ago. So here's what's known about miss Campbell Nav Campbell was 100% negotiating her future in the screen franchise Prior to the SAG and WGA strikes now a lot of you might be going well, duh I mean, that's not necessarily a duh thing To everybody but she a hundred percent was negotiating prior to the strikes similar to how Christopher Landon was Negotiating prior to the strikes and signed as we learned not too long ago. Just like with Landon I do have to say this about Neve. I don't know if I believe she did not sign But I will say I was told that she had not signed on yet. Although her alleged actions At the fan Expo event lead me to believe she either did sign or she's open to negotiating after the strike settle Remember a fan over on beyond the mass channel left a comment saying that Neve said she didn't know if she could talk about screen seven So to me that means she is at least interested like she admitted to being after skipping six again I know for certain people with a better tracker than me have heard this same thing and viewer non again made a public comment About this recently she quite literally cannot be negotiating right now. So it happened prior to the strikes And I will also add this I've been told seven was indeed ready to go with filming in the fall But the strike supports altered everything The script is ready. It would seem auditions I would have to assume have taken place and the cast that they have must be locked in every way But on paper due to the strikes now the Sydney centric story is the bit that again is the rumor that not coming from me But again came from fandom Empire and I've heard it from a few other people But fandom Empire was echoing stuff. I was initially brushing off So the Sydney centric story does kind of have me Concerned if it ends up being true if seven shifts focused to Sydney I can praise it on its own merits if it's again executed well But it just might come off weird if we never get another film like you know what I mean like I'm thinking What if scream seven is not capable of finding that balance between the Carpenter's and Sydney So then you would have something that doesn't feel complete Unless you give us a scream eight But if they're intending seven to be the final chapter as we know it because of course if it's a success this IP will return for the indefinite future But if you can't find that balance it's just gonna feel a little hollow I think there is a lot more of an importance to finish the Carpenter stories Than Sydney Prescott story. I say that as someone who has arguably As much as a lot of you have we've seen her story finished and a lot of Satisfying ways to us now. They might not be satisfying to people who are newly discovering these movies because of the Because of the controversy of why she didn't do six, but there are several entries now Where she has what you can consider a decent exit if not a worthy exit from the series, so I Think Sam Carpenter deserves the same the same treatment Sam is the character you guys created So I think Sam is the character you should be propelling and trying to create a narrative around to mostly carry scream seven If it happens to be Sydney, then that's fine if Campbell I'm sure is gonna bring her a game like she always does I just would hope you're able to still find that balance of keeping it about Sam while also Simultaneously propelling Sydney up to the focus as well keeping it balanced allowing both final girls to culminate Coming up with something related to Ghostface that ties in both of their plot threads one last final time to end the IP As we know it before it is inevitably either remade down the road or rebooted with Sydney's kids If you want to go that route or rebooted in some other capacity That has nothing to do with anything. We have not come to know and love about the status of scream as it is now So you guys can let me know what you think about this down the conversation below again The biggest thing to take away from this video is that Neve Campbell was a hundred percent Negotiating to return or at least negotiating her future of the screen franchise In the screen franchise prior to the SAG and WGA strikes and again, you can say oh well That's a duh thing again. Not a lot of people are gonna be oh well Yeah, of course she was Given the fallout of six a lot of people are gonna be happy to hear this But I do know that of course people more reputable than me have heard this too. Why is no one talking about it the strikes There's certain things going on with a certain horror actress who has made a certain comment on Twitter I'm not gonna say who she was but I did I did make a comment to it There's certain things going on with that actress that are not being announced because of the strikes So it's not out of the realm of possibility that the same thing is happening with miss Campbell She could indeed have signed on and Neve Campbell will be back at Sydney Prescott in screen seven But nothing's come out due to the strikes now if more reputable outlets want to start talking about the fact that she was Indeed negotiating that's fine But but hopefully those negotiation reports can also then lead to hey We discover that she did ink a deal and then you'll have your official announcement that Neve Campbell won't be back at Sydney Prescott in screen seven But let me know what you guys think about this down in the comment section below if you haven't already course make sure you subscribe turn on post Notification numbers video in the description.
