Washington [US], December 6 (ANI): Actor Asa Germann, who is known for his roles in ‘Gen V’ and ‘The Boys’ has joined the cast of ‘Scream 7’, reported Deadline.

May is playing Prescott’s daughter, however, no details are there on O’Connor’s character.

Pic comes on the heels of Scream VI, which brought in a franchise-high domestic gross exceeding 108 million dollars in March 2023. Collectively, films in the meta-horror franchise have earned more than 900 million dollars in worldwide box office receipts.
‘Scream 7’ will be directed by ‘Scream’ creator and writer Kevin Williamson.
Scream launched in 1996 with the late Wes Craven going on to direct three sequels known for skewering horror genre tropes. In 2022, the fifth film re-invented the franchise under the direction of directing team Radio Silence, with Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette returning alongside a crew of new actors.
