The new teaser for Scream 6, featuring Jenna Ortega, Melissa Barrera is out. The film will release on March 10, 2023.
The teaser trailer for Scream 6 has arrived and promises all the chills for fans of the franchise. The teaser doesn’t show much, except for the return of the murderous masked killer in New York. In the video, Sam and Tara are with their friends on the subway filled with some people in Ghostface disguises. The light flickers off and on, and one of them becomes the next target.
Scream 6 features survivors Mindy and Chad Meeks-Martin, played by Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding. Courteney Cox reprises her role as Gale Weathers and, most excitingly for fans, Hayden Panettiere returns with her Scream 4 role of Kirby Reed after 2022’s Scream confirmed that she had survived.
However, Neve Campbell’s Sidney Prescott wouldn’t be present in the upcoming film. Jenna Ortega, who plays the role of Sam, had confirmed that there would be references to her in the film.
“You know, it’s nice because there’s still a protectiveness in the script and that’s something that the actors had naturally over her because obviously we respect her and we want the best for her. She’s missed and thought of,” Ortega had earlier told ET.
Meanwhile the cast also features Dermot Mulroney, Henry Czerny, Samara Weaving and Jack Champion.

To note, the latter first appeared in Scream 4 (2011) and was briefly shown in Scream (2022). Meanwhile, Gale has been among the main characters in the franchise. Their absence left fans confused, and many took to the social media space to express their concerns.
The newcomers joining the cast of the slasher film, which will hit theaters on March 10 next year, include Dermot Mulroney, Tony Revolori, Henry Czerny, and Samara Weaving.
Fans wonder if Kirby is the new Ghostface and about Gale’s absence in Scream 6 teaser
As soon as the teaser hit online spaces, it grabbed netizen’s attention. The clip featured the familiar faces of Sam (Barrera), Tara Carpenter (Ortega), and Mindy (Brown), but not of Gale (Cox) and Kirby (Panettiere).
This left fans speculating as to what may have happened to them, with some suggesting that they might have been killed off. Kirby being the new Ghostface was also circulating among the ideas.
Aside from her and Gale’s no-show topic, the trailer was appreciated, with fans expressing their excitement for the March premiere.
The survivors of the latest Ghostface killings, sisters Samantha and Tara Carpenter and twins Chad and Mindy Meeks, leave Woodsboro behind and start a new chapter of their lives in New York City only to again be plagued by a streak of murders by a new Ghostface killer.The teaser too indicated the New York City shift. Set against the background of Halloween, the clip started with a helicopter view of the Big Apple and proceeded to show a subway train leaving platform 3.
Inside the train are Sam, Tara, and a short-haired Mindy, along with several others dressed in Halloween costumes, including as Ghostface. But one such Ghostface is not an impersonator, which alarms Sam.
The clip ended with the train entering the subway and Mindy getting attacked by Ghostface. Since its release, Scream 6’s teaser has garnered 1 million views.
Who is not returning in Scream 6?
Notably, the upcoming film will miss the character of Sidney Prescott, portrayed by Neve Campbell, as she announced her exit over payment issues. This makes it the first film in the Scream franchise to not have the popular character or the actress.
