Scream 7 is heading into production in September 2024, and fans are eager to know if Courteney Cox will be reprising the role of Gale Weathers, alongside Neve Campbell, who is confirmed to be returning as Sidney Prescott. Cox has been in every Scream movie and is heavily rumored to be coming back for the sixth sequel, but nothing has been confirmed. If the character of Gale Weathers does return, there is an opportunity to expand a plot point from Scream 4, which saw Gale struggling with writer's block.
