Is Riverdale’s Mark Consuelos the Shocking New Ghostface in Scream 7?

by

Mark Consuelos, known for his role as Hiram Lodge on The CW show Riverdale, has recently joined the cast of Scream 7. This movie is being helmed by Kevin Williamson, who has been involved with all previous Scream films as a writer or producer. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who directed the latest two Scream movies, were initially planned to direct Scream 7, but had to withdraw due to scheduling issues. Since Consuelos is the newest cast member, there’s speculation that he might be taking on the role of the latest Ghostface killer, but the details about the film’s plot and characters remain a mystery for now.

Among the notable actors who’ve signed up for the movie, Consuelos is one of the most prominent. This adds an extra layer of intrigue to his casting. Could Scream 7 follow the pattern of multiple Ghostface killers as seen in previous films? If so, will Consuelos portray one of these killers? Will there be a link between his character and an already established character within the franchise? Speculation about how Consuelos’ role will contribute to the franchise’s lore is growing. We’ll find out more when Scream 7 hits theaters next year.

Enthusiasts are excited to learn that Neve Campbell is reprising her role as Sidney Prescott in the series, following her withdrawal from Scream VI due to a salary disagreement. Although recent editions have mainly centered around fresh characters, Campbell informed Entertainment Tonight that the upcoming movie will delve back into the foundation of the franchise. “We’re going to focus on Sidney,” Campbell explained, drawing a parallel with Jamie Lee Curtis rejoining the Halloween series after a long hiatus. “They presented the idea to me, and that’s why I joined the project.

In the upcoming franchise installment, we’ve got some familiar faces returning: Courteney Cox portrays Gale Weathers, Mason Gooding plays Chad Meeks-Martin, Jasmin Savoy Brown takes on Mindy Meeks-Martin, and Roger L. Jackson continues to lend his voice to Ghostface. This seasoned cast will be joined by a few fresh faces, including Isabel May, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, Mckenna Grace, Sam Rechner, Anna Camp, and Joel McHale. At this point, only May’s character and McHale’s role have been disclosed as Prescott’s daughter and husband respectively.
