 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overload here So this will be my last video for scream 7 today and tomorrow because I won't have any type of access to my equipment all day Mostly since it's Thanksgiving. Hope all of you enjoy your day tomorrow with your family friends However, you spend it but from variety today tonight Scream 7 faces full creative reboot after losing Jen or take up Neve Campbell and Patrick Dempsey on the wish list an exclusive report that just broke now keep in mind What did I just say about the alleged plot details you would have and I was hyping it up a little bit in some other prior videos Sydney and Kincaid were already a part of the story that was in place that would have been split with their story And then you would have had the core for story You're not gonna get that anymore I would assume but that makes sense why they would be part of the wish list anyway because they were already a part of The story to begin with I'm also gonna touch on the Stars who who apparently have it deals in place according to another reputable person who has their own Their own commitments to these reputable outlets But variety going over this article starts off saying not even ghostface could see this twist coming the scream franchise Lost two stars this week putting the seven film in the series in creative conundrum According to sources familiar with the project variety broke broke the news that Melissa Barrera was fired by spyglass the film's Producers in recent days over social media messages that deemed it to be anti-semitic The decision was made after the company was notified that Jen Ortega Whose star has risen considerably since she joined the beloved words Craven Horse series would not return due to a scheduling conflict With the second season of her smash Netflix hit show Wednesday Barrera and Ortega played sisters in the films now What's interesting there is they're citing the fact that this decision to let go of Barrera ultimately came after word got to them that Jeno would not be back because of her scheduling conflicts, but then it goes on to say backlash to Barrera's Ouster has been intense with the film's director Christopher Landon reacting to the event surrounding her exit He posted and deleted a statement on X on Tuesday that read everything sucks. Stop yelling. This is not my decision to make It seems some fans like the plans sequel was collapsing in real time However, even before Barrera was fired plans for the next screen were being retooled Ortega's exit had required the creative team to make some alterations according to individuals with knowledge But there were still hopes that the actors might be convinced to come back for some sort of Cameo that no longer seems to be in the cards another source familiar with the franchise disputed is saying Ortega was never in the mix for the new film now Here's the part where it gets interesting because I was telling people this everybody now not everybody was doing this But there are some people who are like, oh, well, we don't know who's writing scream 7 it says here James Vanderbilt and Guy Busek the writers of the previous two screen installments will now work on a fresh draft to present to filmmakers So who do you think wrote the other draft? It was them Now it goes on to also say some set pieces and twists may be preserved But the movie will need to find new protagonists Ortega and Barrera Signed off for two screen movies and fulfilled those obligations with installments 5 and 6 another source noted They would have needed to sign new deals for the seventh chapter So who will have to do battle with the mass killer or so who will have to do battle with a mass killer? The screen movies have a bench of characters who were still alive or it could be reanimated These include Neve Campbell and Courtney Cox the original stars of the series Producers are keen to see Neve Campbell Reclaim her iconic hit or reclaim her role as the iconic character Sidney Prescott Another possibility could be Patrick Dempsey who had a scene ceiling scene stealing turn in 2000 scream 3 none of these actors have been in active negotiations Thus far the hope had been for scream 7 hit theaters in 2025 Although the producers are essentially starting from scratch that release date will still seems feasible if landed in the writers Can find another scary story to tell now These are the stars that apparently have deals in place Eric Goldman Who is associated or managing editor for fandom? Put out this tweet over like a quote tweet in response to variety Saying basically everything you'd expect in terms of we got to figure shit out because of studio fuck-ups No one has a deal for the movie currently except Jasmine Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding So here's my response to that like I said before People are still gonna do this movie. You know why because again to a lot of people at the end of the day This is a profession. Some people are gonna harass them They already know that but the thing about it is they should not be concerned about those people that are harassing them I wish them the best of luck. You should be concerned about are you and are you being supported? By Melissa and Jenna to keep things going if they have given you The go-ahead and you feel content with that. That's all that matters The stuff online from fans and people who don't know you guys personally that stuff doesn't matter if Melissa and Jenna Want Mason and Jasmine to hold the line and represent the core for and we get a story centered around Sydney Prescott her family and her husband and Gail Weathers Kirby Reed and all of them can come back and Mason and Jasmine hold it down Representing the core for story that was established in five and six and Melissa and Jenna are supporting them in doing that That's all the confidence. I hope they can they can stomach that would convince them to do the project if Melissa and Jenna are in support of everyone still doing the project. Let's get them all together All of this other grandstanding and stuff. That's not that's not gonna be relevant It has nothing to do with the filmmaking process and I wouldn't be shocked if Reasonable people like Melissa and Jenna because both of them seem to be very reasonable I wouldn't be shocked if they are in full support of their co-stars Coming together and doing the movie and not looking at them some type of way And even if they do not make making some big fuss about it online The way I know that people are gonna start heckling people who sign on to this project The grandstanding like I've stated it has to stop it has to stop this has nothing to do with making a movie The movie is not going to resolve anything and if Melissa and Jenna are again in support of their co-stars Let's get them on let's do a story if you can come up with something And if you're able to successfully convince Nev to come on a lot of people are gonna celebrate it anyway But at the end of the day, you know, if you're very upset about what has happened and what has transpired You have to speak about it not with outrage like this But by simply just not showing up to the box office. That is what speaks to these people. They understand dollars You don't show up. They see that. Okay. They don't like our shit. You're done The screen franchise will be done and look at it this way if screen 7 is the final name the coffin because people Collectively decide. Hey, we don't want to turn out for this because we're against what happened with Melissa We don't want to see it without Melissa and we don't like how you handle Melissa If that's what happens and it flops if scream 7 is still something that is Creatively successful and a solid cap off to the franchise. I would be fine I think that the franchise should stop after 7 anyway So we'll just have to see how all of this plays out But yeah, they basically confirmed what viewer and on was stating earlier Yesterday even what I was stating I had heard because I had actually heard this earlier today And then the news report came out today from Variety backing up the fact that yes We are in a full rehaul state and I don't think you're gonna get a full reboot You should just be getting something that is obviously continuing the story But shifting focus back to Sydney Prescott Hopefully if Ned is convinced to return but let me know what you guys think about this down the comment section below If you have a record, make sure you subscribe turn on post notification in this video in the description I will have links on my social media accounts.
