While horror fans assumed that Patrick Dempsey would reprise his role of Detective Mark Kincaid in Scream 7, that isn't going to happen. When Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) met Kincaid in Scream 3, sparks flew and fans wondered if they would start a relationship. Then, in Scream (2022), Dewey Riley (David Arquette) referenced Sidney's marriage to a man named Mark while they chatted about Ghostface's return. Audiences thought this meant that Sidney and Kincaid were married... but now, Deadline reported that Joel McHale is playing Sidney's husband Mark Evans in Scream 7.
