Neve Campbell, the original Scream star and ultimate last girl, said in June that she had made the “extremely tough decision” not to return for Scream VI after appearing in the previous five Scream movies.

She last appeared in Craven’s fifth film, which debuted in January 2022, after giving her breakthrough performance in the first movie.
