Other returning cast members include Neve Campbell, Mason Gooding and Jasmin Savoy Brown and all are joined by newcomers to the franchise like Isabel May, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, Mckenna Grace, Sam Rechner, Anna Camp, Joel McHale, Mark Consuelos and Ethan Embry.

Kevin Williamson directs the new outing which has been filming for the past two months in Atlanta and is reportedly set to wrap production in about a week or so. the movie is already slated for a February 2026 release.
