Both Lillard and Foley's characters seemed to die in 'Scream' and 'Scream 3' — so how are they back for 'Scream 7'?

Is Scott Foley ghosting us? More than two decades after playing the role of Roman Bridger in 2000's Scream 3, Foley now returns to the franchise for Scream 7, Entertainment Weekly has learned. Plot details are being kept strictly under wraps,

Scott Foley is returning to the 'Scream' universe but it is as yet unknown if he will reprise the role of Roman Bridger who died in 'Scream 3.'

As the cast of Scream 7 continues to grow, fans of the iconic horror franchise are presented with more and more head-scratching mysteries. We’re all still trying to figure out why Neve Campbell is married to some guy named Mark that isn’t the same as Patrick Dempsey’s Mark from Scream 3.

Lillard, who played Stu Macher in the first Scream movie, has been cast in Scream 7, as reported by Deadline. Stu was one-half of the Ghostface killer duo in the 1996 film alongside final girl Sidney Prescott’s boyfriend Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich).

Scott Foley , who appeared in Scream 3 , is returning to the franchise for director Kevin Williamson ’s Scream 7 . I assume he will reprise his role as Roman Bridger, who was the half-brother of Sidney Prescott and the Ghostface killer.

While Scream 7 may not be a part of the 2025 movie schedule, we’ve been getting plenty of new Ghostface updates. The newest bit of news includes a past killer behind the iconic mask joining production and returning for the seventh installment.
