Neve Campbell on her departure from ‘Scream 6’: “I haven’t felt valued”

Sidney Prescott will not take any more stabs. The actress who gave him life over the last 25 years, Neve Campbell has made new statements about his departure from the horror movie saga ‘Scream’. Despite having played his character in the previous five films, Neve Campbell will not be in ‘Scream 6’: “The offer was not up to my value” he assured last June about the dispute over his salary.

“As a woman, I have to work extremely hard in my career to establish my worth, especially when it comes to ‘Scream.’ I believe that the offer that was made to me was not equivalent to the value that I have contributed to the franchise.” The actress mentioned after hearing the news of her absence.

Now, the iconic survivor Sidney Prescott, (well known by fans of the saga), has given more explanations about the reasons that led him to cut ties with the production. “I don’t think the offer that was made to me equates to the value that I give, and have given for 25 years, to this franchise. As a woman in this industry, I think it’s very important to be valued and fight for that value. Honestly, I don’t think if I were a man and had made 5 deliveries of a B.lockbusterover 25 years, I would have been offered the amount that has been offered to me.”

For this reason, he argued, he cannot return to a sixth installment of the saga.

“Inside, I couldn’t do that. I couldn’t walk into a set feeling unappreciated, feeling the injustice around me..” Added the actress, who is currently starring in the Netflix series ‘The Lincoln Lawyer’ and who is preparing the adaptation of the video game ‘Twisted Metal’, produced by Peacock.

However, not all hope is lost, and Prescott fans can keep crossing their fingers, since in other interviews the actress seemed to open the door to negotiations:

“I care about these movies. If they would come to me and offer me an amount that would allow me to continue… the value that I bring to them. I would definitely consider it. I care about these new directors. They did a great job on the last movie, and I wish them good luck.”

Since 1996, Campbell has made a long journey within the film saga, accompanied by other familiar faces such as Courtney Cox either David Arquettetogether with those who fought against the mysterious murderer ‘ghost face‘.

After the success of the last film this year, paramount Y spyglass decided to bet on this sixth installment written by James Vanderbilt Y Guy Busick. They will redirect the project Matt Bettinelli-Olpin Y Tyler Gillett and the premiere is scheduled for March 31, 2023.
