Scream 2022 Posters Show Sidney Dewey & Gale Holding Ghostface Masks

Sidney, Dewey and Gale hold Ghostface masks in new character posters for Scream 2022. Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson first made audiences scream with their 1996 meta-horror blockbuster starring Drew Barrymore, Neve Campbell, David Arquette and Courteney Cox.

That first Scream movie famously revived the long-dormant slasher form by humorously deconstructing the genre, having the characters openly discuss the well-established rules of how slasher movies work even as they themselves were being stalked by a knife-wielding masked murderer. Of course one rule of slasher movies is that there’s always a sequel where the killer returns, and so it was for Scream which ultimately spawned three follow-ups ending with 2011’s Scream 4. Now the Scream franchise is being revived – since it’s also a rule that all franchises must eventually be brought back from the dead – for a legacy sequel starring original series actors Campbell, Arquette and Cox alongside a new generation of Scream characters.

Some of that new generation of Scream characters may in fact survive the events of Scream 2022 and carry on the tradition into the future, as director Tyler Gillett recently teased. But for now the focus is still on OG Scream characters Sidney, Dewey and Gale as the three are showcased in new posters also featuring the iconic Ghostface mask.

The implication of these new posters is not just that these characters can’t seem to escape the legacy of Ghostface, but that any of them could in fact be the killer in the new movie. Of course it would be quite a twist if Sidney, Dewey or Gale – or all three of them – ended up becoming the murderer as Scream returns to the screens for the first time in a decade. Naturally the identity of the new Ghostface is being kept under wraps as Scream 2022 prepares for release, so the field is wide open to speculate on who could be responsible for all the murder and mayhem this time around.

It remains to be seen whether the Scream franchise still carries any weight with audiences twenty-five years after the first movie breathed new life into the slasher genre by totally taking it apart. Certainly horror is as big as ever, but slasher movies themselves seem to have fallen out of favor in recent years as supernatural horror has ascended. Scream 2022 could ultimately represent one last time around the track for the Scream franchise before it fades away altogether. Or unlikely as it seems, it could actually succeed in spawning a new series of movies that carries on deconstructing horror while delivering more thrills and chills into the foreseeable future.
