Scream 6 Directors Say Leaving Franchise Wasn’t Their Choice
It’s been a season of turmoil for the Scream franchise. Earlier this month, Neve Campbell confirmed that she will star in Scream 7, which will be directed by Kevin Williamson, the screenwriter who created the franchise and produced the six previous films. That followed the news that director Christopher Landon left Scream 7 in December after his star, Melissa Barrera, was fired from the franchise in November. And it turns out that Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett--who collectively go by Radio Silence--were also forced to step down as directors of the franchise’s next chapter.
While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Radio Silence said that their intention was to finish a trilogy of Scream movies featuring Barrera and Jenna Ortega’s Sam and Tara Carpenter. However, Spyglass’ demanding schedule for Scream 7 ultimately meant that they couldn’t helm their new horror movie, Abigail, and close out their third film in the franchise.
“We got exited,” noted Gillett. “We’ll be sad that there’s not going to be an end to the Sam Carpenter story, but in our minds, we designed Scream VI so that the story feels complete,” added Bettinelli-Olpin.
