Anna Camp has boarded 'Scream 7'.

Plot details for the new instalment of the iconic horror franchise remain unknown, but Deadline reports that the 42-year-old actress - who is known for her roles in 'True Blood' and 'Pitch Perfect' - is the latest star attached to the flick.

She will join fellow newcomers Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, Mckenna Grace, Sam Rechner, and Isabel May, who is playing Sydney Prescott’s (Neve Campbell) daughter

Anna's casting news comes hot off the heels of it being reported that Mason Gooding is returning for 'Scream 7'.

The 28-year-old actor first appeared in the revival in 2022, before reprising his role as Chad Meeks-Martin in last year's 'Scream VI'.

However, it's believed Jasmin Savoy Brown - who played his sister Mindy - is yet to officially sign up for the sequel.

Although the movie has faced a number of setbacks - including cast members and the director leaving - Gooding previously backed the film to get over the line.

He told the outlet in March: "If it could make money, I guarantee you, they’ll make it.

"It’s all about keeping up with what feels like is the best movie for the fans.

"‘Scream’ doesn’t exist without the people who enjoy is as much as they do… If people want it, they will certainly try their best to see it happen.”

Melissa Barrera had been on board to lead the film, but she was fired in November 2023 over social media posts seen as antisemitic, and shortly afterwards, her co-star Jenna Ortega dropped out due to scheduling conflicts.

In September, Courteney Cox insisted she was yet to sign up to return as Gale Weathers in the movie.

She told Variety: "I'm not officially signed on. I'm not, but there will be a 'Scream 7.'"

Filming is set to get underway this month in Atlanta, but Cox didn't have a specific timeframe for making a decision about whether or not she'll be involved.

She added: "They’re rewriting all the time. It’s not like I don’t know what’s going on.”

Whatever happens, Cox is hoping to see her ex-husband David Arquette return as Dewey Riley, despite his character being killed off in the 2022 'Scream' revival.

She said: "I understand the reasons they did it, but whoa! Talk about a missed character. Dewey is so loved by ‘Scream’ fans. They have to figure it out.”

Neve previously admitted she is delighted to be reuniting with filmmaker creator Kevin Williamson.

The 'Party of Five' actress previously admitted she found it "so satisfying" to be heard on her pay issue.

She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "I'm super grateful that they came around on it. ['Scream VI'] just didn't feel right. I couldn't after this many decades of carrying a franchise, to feel undervalued and underpaid and to know that it wouldn't have happened to a man in that way.

"It just wouldn't make sense for me to walk on that set. So, I'm glad I stood up for myself."

She noted she is "excited" for the "nuts" fandom to see what director Williamson has in store for them, while she played coy on the prospect of other returning cast members.
