According to National Today, Scream 7 is officially on its way, with a fresh look at the franchise's legacy setting the stage for what could be the most hotly debated installment yet.
Why Scream 7 Has the Fancasting World Buzzing
The Scream franchise has always been a fancasting playground. Its formula — a mix of legacy characters, fresh blood, and a masked killer whose identity stays secret until the final act — means every new entry comes loaded with casting questions. Who's coming back? Who's the new Ghostface? Which up-and-coming star gets the iconic phone call this time?
Scream 7 raises the stakes even higher. After the franchise-reshuffling events of the last two films, the door is wide open for new characters, returning favorites, and some genuinely surprising choices. Whether you want to see the original survivors make one last stand or a full generational handoff to a new ensemble, there's a casting argument to be made — and fans on myCast are already making it.
What myCast Fans Are Saying Right Now
The myCast community has been all over this franchise, and the data tells a fascinating story. The most-voted Scream fan cast on the platform is the Scream story, which has racked up 115 total votes across 15 roles — and the picks are bold. Dacre Montgomery dominates the Billy Loomis slot with a massive 41 votes, more than any other single pick across all Scream stories on the platform. That's a serious mandate from fans who clearly want the Stranger Things breakout to channel some original Ghostface energy.
Beyond Montgomery, fans in that same story have rallied behind Dylan O'Brien for Dewey Riley with 18 votes, Hailee Steinfeld for Sidney Prescott with 16 votes, and Alexandra Daddario for Gale Weathers with 10 votes. Rounding out the ensemble, Kathryn Newton has 8 votes for Casey Becker and Gianni DeCenzo picks up 8 votes for Randy Meeks — a fun nod to his Stranger Things connection to O'Brien, intentional or not.
