Scream 7 chaos: Christopher Landon quits dream turned nightmare
Dec 23, 2023 10:23 PMChristopher Landon has stepped down as the director of "Scream 7", stating that what was once a dream job became a nightmare. This announcement comes after the contentious firing of actress Melissa Barrera and the departure of Jenna Ortega from the project. Landon expressed his sadness regarding the whole situation and mentioned how honored he felt to be part of such an iconic series, even if briefly. These recent developments add to the turmoil surrounding the "Scream" franchise, which saw a directorial change from Radio Silence (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett) to Christopher Landon earlier this year. The controversy further intensified as over 1,300 actors and artists signed a letter opposing what they view as censorship related to the Israel-Palestine conflict following Barrera's firing.
