'SCREAM VI' Star Teases Possible Return For 'SCREAM 7'

Even though SCREAM VI has been massively successful, there has been no official word on when we will see a SCREAM 7 anytime soon. We do have some news on if a seventh feature is on the horizon, newcomer Josh Segarra feels pretty confident that he'll be making a comeback.

Segarra played Melissa Barrera (Sam Carpenter) boyfriend in Scream VI and this immediately had fans fingering him as the new killer (did that come out wrong or was it just us?) With the film revealing that the crimes were commited by someone else though, will we see Segarra’s character return?

"If there's a Scream 7, your boy will be back a hundred percent ... That relationship between Sam and Danny, I love that," Segarra shared with Entertainment Tonight.

Even though Segarra’s character turned out to be genuine, he says fans are still on the fence about his true motives.

“No matter what Danny did, he was still a suspect. Even now, I've seen all those chatters where people are being like, 'Nah, he's definitely the killer still,'" Segarra joked. "I'm like, 'Can you just let my man live?' He just loves Sam. He wants to be part of the Core Four. He just wants to be nice and protect her."

As of this writing, we have no confirmation on a SCREAM 7 and that sort of worries us as SCREAM 6 was almost immediately announced after SCREAM 5 hit theaters. We do know that the directors for both Scream 5 and 6 are a bit busy with other films. Directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin helmed both projects, but with a new film on their horizon, it's unclear what their future will be with the franchise.

"I think that it's hard to not fall in love with the thing that you're making. In fact, I would say that, at its most basic level, the job, right? Is to really love the process," Gillett admitted to ComicBook.com about the duo's future. "You have to love that thing in order to see it across the finish line. Making a movie is too hard to not love it. I would also say, though, that we never expect to have another one, you know what I mean? And I think that that's just an important way of creating. You leave it all on the field. We try to make 5 and then 6, we tried to make those, tried to cram as many of the good ideas that we had into those as possible, not ever knowing if there's gonna be another one. I think that what you end up with is a story that feels like it's a full thought. It's not teasing, it's not a trailer for what's next, it's its own thing and it's got a close-ended character resolution at the end. I think that's just, also, the job. I think it's, for us, our taste and the thing that we love is to arc out a character over the course of one story."

He noted, "We love Scream. We want it to continue forever, regardless of whether we're involved or not, it's a franchise that is very, very dear to us and we love the people that have brought it back to life. It's been a dream to get to make two of them."

We’ll see if a SCREAM 7 even happens but all signs are pointing to a big YES. We’ll keep you posted as usual.
