Gale is just as worthy of being a lead as Sidney is. So is Hayden (Kirby) and Tara Carpenter

It's a business move they probably lowballed her on purpose so she could make the decision to not return to this one. They're gonna need some major hype for the final installment and that's when they're gonna throw the entire bank at her!

How long can they drag the franchise? or they'll get to the point where Ghostface is immortal like most of the slashers :toofunny3:

How so? Jamie has been playing the role since 1978, she has 20 years on Syd. 

 

Also, Neve has successful work now outside of Scream. Lincoln Lawyer is a smash.

I dont necessarily think of her when I think of Scream and I've seen all of them.

 

 

But this could be it:

Neve has more going for her than JLC does acting wise. JLC was doing Activia commercials before H18

Also honestly imo Neve is a much more talented and versatile actress than JLC.

Kirby is back and her fan base is just as big as the trio's

The killer in Scream can be anyone so it can go on forever in theory.

Creatively this could be a positive thing (or not have any impact considering it doesn't feel like she'd be playing a big role anyway...) as long as they leave Sidney alone and living her best life off screen. We'll see what they come up with.

But I just know the studio would never do this to a legacy male lead character of a similar franchise if they felt they deserved a bigger paycheck for a 5 min cameo. Typical Hollywood, I want the franchise to keep going but honestly I can't be too sad if it bites them in the ass.

This is a reach, she has a fanbase and I love Kirby and Hayden myself but there's plenty of people who don't care and others who straight up dislike/didn't want the returning character in comparison.

Sidney's character is washed up now I loved her too but her story has been done since 3. the last two films have been nostalgia and fan service.

And that’s why the movies should have ended on the third film leaving us with the iconic OG trilogy only. There is no story without THE scream queen herself and whenever the films aren’t focused on Sidney, the quality significantly declines. That’s why 4 and 5 are the worst films in the series! :gaycat4:

They better give Kirby a pretty juicy role after this. No 5 minute cameo where she gets killed in the end.

but do you honestly want this series to end up like Halloween where it's too afraid to move away from the lead like Halloween is too afraid to move on from Laurie and Jamie Lee Curtis?

Gale Weathers is just as worthy as taking over in fact she has more to tell in her story it'll be 5 films and no "Hello Gale" from Ghostface

No, it could be a good thing creatively for sure. I just don't think it was intentional if it truly came down to her paycheck (as it's unlikely she'd say that as a public excuse and unnecessarily throw the studio under the bus) so I guess we'll have to see where they go with the story

And there’s a reason for that sis, Gale has been irrelevant ever since Jennifer Jolie outsold her in Scream 3 :gaycat5:

You know how much material Ghostface will have the first time he'll call Gale? He can taunt her about being alone without Sid and Dewey.

I understand, Scream 5 just radiated Riverdale energy, acting and writing wise.

Good for her tbh. Her character deserves to live in peace and I fear they might do something stupid like kill her off :dancehall2:

Sure there can be some fun moments with Gale but you don't want them to ditch Sidney only to move the focus to Gale right? Because she won't work as an organic lead/ultimate final girl now (even if she technically has been one too) when she's from Sidney's OG series and assuming Sidney is still alive somewhere off screen (if they dare to kill her off screen then they might as well just kill the franchise too). If they really want to move on from the OG for the sake of the franchise's future then the focus has to be on new characters. If not, then not having Sidney as well is dumb and will be felt by the franchise's audience

Sidney has three daughters and a husband she deserves happiness. How many more people will want to kill Sidney it's been 25 years. Gale has made a lot of enemies to wanna kill her.

Scream 5 sweetie I'm so sorry. Riverdale is the epitome of bad acting.

Good for her. :clap3:

 

Scream 5 was so stale and predictable. The original characters were awkwardly shoehorned into the plot, and the new generation of Woodsboro characters lacked any of the empathetic and interesting qualities of the originals. They literally got so much of the iconic original cast back yet they pretty much demoted them all to filler/sub-plot characters.

Nobody wants that Kirby girl
