And as you may or may not already know, she declined to return for Scream 6 due to contractual/financial disagreements. In short, she felt like she was being shafted and not being paid enough to reprise her role despite being the original heroine from all the earlier Scream movies so she refused.
After appearing as Sidney in Scream 5, Neve Campbell announced in June 2022 that she turned down an offer to return for Scream 6. According to Campbell, the offer made to her was far too low, saying, "As a woman, I have had to work extremely hard in my career to establish my value, especially when it comes to Scream.
Scream 7 is reportedly heading back to the drawing board and may include Neve Campbell. According to Variety, the filmmakers are weighing up options following the high-profile exit of Scream 6 leads Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera.
With Scream 6 confirming that Stu is dead, it obviously means that he's not one of the killers in the latest movie in the series. The answer as to who the Scream 6 killers are is somewhat complicated, as the movie starts with two potential Ghostface killers only to kill them off and go with a new trio of killers.

Is Scream 7 confirmed?
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.
The film has now, without a shadow of a doubt, confirmed that Stu is believed to be dead in-universe. That means the only way he could be alive is to have faked his death and be hidden away. Now, Scream certainly has soap opera sensibilities, but come on.
Stu was killed when Sidney dropped a TV on his head in Scream's ending, though there are theories that he secretly survived. Scream (2022) expands Stu Macher's family tree by revealing he had a sister named Leslie Macher and a nephew named Vince Schneider.
After calling them “pretty confused guys,” she said, “Maybe some of their anger comes from not being allowed to be who they want to be, if you wanna go there.” Was Stu more in love with Billy than the other way around? “Yeah, yeah. Yes,” Campbell answered definitively.
M.O. Ghostface first appeared in Scream (1996) as a disguise used by teenagers Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) and Stu Macher (Matthew Lillard), during their killing spree in the fictional town of Woodsboro.
Sam and Tara are scared, horrified, and worried that Gale is gone. Thankfully, Gale survives, although of course now she has even more trauma to work through after dealing with Ghostface yet another time. Horror fans expect a few things from every Scream movie.
Scream VI has been released – but, sadly for fans, it's the first one without Neve Campbell. Campbell, who had played Sidney Prescott in every Scream film to date, announced in June 2021 she had quit the sixth instalment as she wasn't getting paid what she thought she deserved.
Sidney isn't killed off, as she is still married with three children following her move from Woodsboro at the end of Scream 4. Although the events of 2022's Scream allowed Sidney to reunite with both Gale and Dewey, she doesn't stay in Woodsboro for much longer.
Sidney finds out about his child much later on and figures he wasn't "patient" with her after all and being unfaithful to her. It is revealed that Billy held hatred inside for Sidney, but stayed in the relationship to stay close to her to execute his plan of revenge for his mother abandoning him.
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.
Why did Billy stab Stu? Billy and Stu begin to stab each other to make themselves look like the victims of their scapegoat. Stu claims that after watching several horror films, they know how to frame and get away with murder.
Despite some close calls, the Core Four, Kirby, and Gale all survived Scream VI, meaning they could all potentially return for another movie. There's also the matter of Sam's ongoing connection to her murderous father.
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).
When Casey answers incorrectly, Steve is disemboweled on her porch and she is asked another question to save her own life. When she refuses to answer, Ghostface chases her down and kills her, leaving her disemboweled and hanged from a tree, where she is discovered by her mother Mrs. Becker.
In the scene where Billy throws the phone at Stu and Stu cries out was actually a mistake. Skeet's hands were so slippy from the fake blood, the phone slipped out of his hands and accidentally hit Matthew in the head. His now infamous line was actually improvised, not scripted.
