"Scream VII: Jenna Ortega's Departure and Melissa Barrera's Firing Shake Up Horror Sequel"
TL;DR Summary
Following the firing of Melissa Barrera from Scream VII, it has been revealed that Jenna Ortega will also not be returning to the horror movie series. Losing the two main leads puts the future of the franchise in question, with director Christopher Landon's involvement uncertain. Ortega's departure is unrelated to Barrera's firing and was reportedly due to either a lack of a deal or a disagreement over her renegotiated option. The previous installment, 2022's Scream, revitalized the series with younger stars and grossed over $137 million globally.
