Star of the original 1996 Scream movie Ma𓆏tthew Lillard has revealed that he thinks his character Stu is still alive and teases his potential return to the franchise. 

"Listen, Stu is definitely alive," said Lillard on The Drew Barrymore Show, which has since been shared on . When asked if🧜 he would ever return to the franchise, the star said he would "love" to. "Look, if it made sense for the franchise... then sure, I would," said the star, ad🍸ding, "I’m very slutty." See the full post below.

Lillard played teen Stuart Macher, otherwise known as Stu, who was one of ♏the peo𒁏ple behind the Ghostface responsible for the Woodsboro Murders, alongside final girl Sidney Prescott’s boyfriend Billy Loomis. But the antagonist was stabbed by Loomis and then electrocuted seemingly to death by Prescott. However, according to Lillard, Stu may have not really died that day.

Lillard’s return to the franchise wouldn't be too shocking, as original stars Neve Campbell (Prescott), Courteney Cox (Gale Weathers), and David Arquette (Dewey Riley) have already rejoined the franchise at certain points. Furthermore, Macher’s accomplice Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) appeared in a flashback in Scream 5.

Barrymore herself also starred in the 1996 movie as Casey Becker who gets murdered in the movie's tense opening scene. Earlier in the interview, Barrymore asked Lillard if while filming the first movie, did he think it would turn into a franchise. "I mean I don't think anyone would have expected back then this kind of resurgence," replied Lillard. "I feel that the franchise now is bigger than it has ever been." Since the first movie, the franchise has expanded over seven movies, with Scream 7 on the way.

But before Lillard can return to the Stu, the star is heading back to another horror franchise, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Five Nights at Freddy’s. In the first movie, Lillard plays career counselor turned child killer🍸 William Afton who is set to return in Five Night🌸s at Freddy’s 2. The sequel hits theaters on December 5, 2025.
