Roman Bridger (Scott Foley) in Scream 3 Not only was Roman revealed to be the Scream 3 killer, but he was also the mastermind behind the previous two movies. Roman was the son of Maureen Prescott, but she wanted nothing to do with him.
Ghostface is revealed as Sidney's half-brother, film director Roman Bridger (Scott Foley), born to their mother Maureen during a two-year period when she moved to Hollywood to become an actress under the name Rina Reynolds.
Scream 3 is the only film in the franchise where only one identity is revealed as Ghostface: Roman Bridger played by Scott Foley. Roman is the main antagonist of the third installment and the fifth Ghostface murderer unmasked overall.
In Season 3, the new killers are revealed to be Beth and Jamal Elliot. In-costume scenes for The Lakewood Slasher were portrayed by Stanton Barrett in Season 1, and Alec Rayme in Season 2. In-costume scenes for Ghostface were portrayed by William Scharpf in Season 3.
The shocking reveal at the end of Scream shows that the killers are Tara's best friend Amber and Sam's boyfriend, Richie. They were both motivated to kill to continue the Stab franchise (the horror franchise within Scream replicating the film).
As she confesses during a therapy session, Sam felt it was right to stab her ex-boyfriend, Richie Kirsch (Jack Quaid), the last man to don the Ghostface mask. Sam had to kill Richie to protect her sister and friends, but she's still shocked by how easy it was to take another person's life.
He was able to gain her trust while hiding his true identity and motives. Dates Sam for a ultimate purpose to kill her. Like Billy with Sidney, Richie is being unfaithful to her with Amber.
Luckily for fans, many of those ideas would later end up in Scream 4 and possibly Scream VI. Scream 3 is the only film in the franchise to have one killer, with it being Sidney's half-brother Roman Bridger (Scott Foley).
The main killer links back to Sidney again. The two killers are Jill Roberts (Emma Roberts), who is Sidney's cousin on her mother's side, and Charlie Walker (Rory Culkin).
In Scream 4, on the anniversary of Billy and Stu's murder spree, a new Ghostface emerges, revealed to be Sidney's cousin Jill Roberts and her friend Charlie Walker.
Scream 7 is officially happening, but fans have been stunned by two unexpected exits from the new movie. Both Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, who played sisters Sam and Tara Carpenter in Scream (2022) and Scream VI, won't be returning for the new movie.
As for why Angelina being the second killer in Scream 3 was scrapped, that's not entirely clear. All those involved have said is that producers - one assumes meaning Dimension Films bosses Harvey and Bob Weinstein - didn't like the idea, and demanded it be changed.
Ghostface kills Stab 3 actress Sarah Darling, causing production of the film to be halted. The remaining cast, along with Dewey and Gale, gather at the home of Jennifer Jolie, the actress playing Gale in Stab 3. Ghostface murders her bodyguard and uses a gas leak to cause an explosion, which kills actor Tom Prinze.
Billy Loomis - Billy single-handedly killed 2 people, and with Stu's help, he killed two more for a total of 4 kills. Along with Stu, he killed Maureen Prescott (Sidney's mother) and also Casey Becker (Stu's ex-boyfriend).
In the third act of Scream, when Billy Loomis and Stu Macher revealed themselves as the Ghostface killers, Billy told Sidney he killed Maureen as she was having an affair with his dad, which led to his mother abandoning him.
The twist of having three Scream 6 killers, five including Jason and Greg, was a Scream franchise game changer, as it made it even easier for them to kill with so many Ghostfaces to carry out the murders.
Scream 6 introduced five killers, the most in any Scream film, who were not working together. Their identities were revealed early on, breaking convention. Detective Bailey, Quinn Bailey, and Ethan Landry were revealed as the killers at the end of Scream 6. Their motive was revenge for Detective Bailey's son's death.
While critic and audience score data does support that Scream 3 is technically the worst, it's also possible to think that there aren't truly any bad movies in the Scream franchise.
Scream 3 also took inspiration from real-world events and people, but it pulled it off in a bolder way compared to the 2022 requel. The Ghostface motivation in Scream 3 differed from Scream (2022) as it turned to Sidney's lineage and retconned the events of the original Scream.
Unfortunately for Scream franchise fans that may want to see Stu Macher make a comeback, Scream 6 has fairly definitively laid the theories to rest by confirming his death. There is a lingering shot in the film that shows Stu Macher's photo and confirms that he died in 1996.
Because of her mother's tendency to get drunk, she discovered that Tara's sister, Samantha was the illegitimate daughter of Billy Loomis, the original Woodsboro killer and mastermind.
After being disgusted with Stab 8, simply known as Stab, she met Richie on a Stab subreddit where they devised a plan to create a "requel" to the original Stab, using The Carpenter Sisters as the basis for the movie (Tara as the victim, and Sam as the villain).
Tara Carpenter is a fictional character in the Scream film series, played by Jenna Ortega in Scream and Scream VI. Tara is the half-sister of Sam Carpenter and one of the main protagonists who gets targeted by Ghostface in the two movies.
