The departure from the film franchise has “nothing to do with the fallout from Melissa Barrera‘s firing yesterday,” the report also clarifies. “Nor does it have to do with the actress asking for an end to her Scream contract.”

Her exit from the franchise was discussed “before the actors strike,” according to the report.

Jenna will head to Ireland in April to shoot the second season of Netflix’s Wednesday which will go into the summer. Beetlejuice also had a few extra days of shooting in order to meet its Labor Day 2024 theatrical release.

A script for Scream VII is not ready yet.
