Three years after the horrors of Scream 2, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has retreated into isolation, seeking safety and anonymity after surviving two brutal encounters with Ghostface. Living off the grid, Sidney believes she’s left her nightmare behind—but a new chapter of terror is about to unfold.

In Hollywood, the cast of Stab 3: Return to Woodsboro—the latest installment in the meta-horror franchise inspired by Sidney’s life—is being targeted by a killer donning the infamous Ghostface mask. As the murders escalate, Sidney is forced out of hiding and drawn to the chaotic heart of the film industry to confront the darkness that refuses to let her go.

Joining her are familiar faces, including Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) and Dewey Riley (David Arquette), who find themselves navigating a deadly web of secrets and lies. On the set of Stab 3, where fiction and reality blur, everyone is a potential victim—or a suspect.

In Hollywood, everyone is acting. But Ghostface is dead serious.
