Scream (Franchise)
Scream is a slasher franchise that includes seven films, along with TV, games, and merchandise. It was created by Kevin Williamson and launched in 1996, with Wes Craven directing the first four movies. The series follows recurring characters like Ghostface and has featured a large rotating cast, including Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox.
The franchise has earned over $1.1 billion worldwide, making it a major box office success, although individual films have received mixed critical responses. The latest entry, Scream 7 (2026), was poorly reviewed but became the highest-grossing film in the series. An eighth film is already in early development.
