Director christopher Landon already has a third film planned to complete the "Groundhog Day"-style horror trilogy, the "Boy Kills World" star told ScreenGeek. In the 2017 original movie, Rothe plays Tree Gelbman, a sorority sister who relives her own murder. Despite having a $4.8 million budget, the film made $125 million at the box office worldwide. In a similar vein, a 2019 sequel made $64 million on a $9 million budget.

Well, I can say chris Landon has the whole thing figured out. We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row,” Rothe said of a third installment. “But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”

The now-revised "Scream 7" was supposed to be directed by Landon.  After casting reorganizations, he left the project.  First, Melissa Barrera's remarks regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict led to her termination. "Everything sucks," posted christopher Landon at the time in a since-deleted post. Quit shouting. I didn't make this decision.  Later on, Jenna Ortega also left.

“I have a whole movie! It’s not even an idea. I pitched the entire movie to [Universal] and they loved it,” Landon said. “That was the funny part. They were like, oh my god, that’s so unexpected and so cool. It’s not dependent, it’s not set in the same day as the previous films, so it could be made now, or in two years or three years. It would still work. But the trickier thing too, and in fairness to them, it’s a bigger idea than the previous two films, so it would be a more expensive movie.”
