Scream 7, the seventh installment in the long-running Scream franchise, has been in theaters for nearly two months and is now set to conclude its ongoing run. After delivering an impressive $63.6 million opening across 3,540 North American locations, the Neve Campbell starrer has grossed $121.9 million domestically. Over the April 24-26 weekend, the film added another $67k to its domestic total from the remaining 149 theaters where it was playing.

Combined with its $91.9 million international haul, the film’s worldwide total has now reached $213.8 million. Despite a modest 30% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, it currently ranks as the highest-grossing horror film of 2026 and this year’s seventh-highest-grossing title overall, according to Box Office Mojo.

Aims For $215 Million Worldwide Gross

As Scream 7 inches toward the end of its run, it will aim to add another $1.2 million globally to reach a $215 million worldwide total. This means it is comfortably ahead of the franchise’s previous top-grossing entry – the 1996 original Scream, which earned $173 million globally.

North America: $121.9 million
International: $91.9 million
Worldwide: $213.8 million

Budget, Box Office Break-Even & Theatrical Profit (Estimated)

Made on a reported $45 million production budget, Scream 7 needed to earn around $112.5 million to break even at the box office, according to the commonly cited 2.5x multiplier rule. With a current global haul of $213.8 million, the film has already generated an estimated theatrical surplus of $101.3 million, thereby surpassing the $100 million mark. As the film is still playing in some theaters, it could potentially add another $1-2 million to its current estimated theatrical profit.

Despite a solid $101.3 million theatrical surplus, Scream 7 is still behind two films in the slasher franchise. The original Scream (1996) generated $138 million, and its sequel, Scream 2 (1997), earned roughly $112.4 million in box office profit. This makes the seventh film the third-highest in terms of theatrical profit.

Moreover, Scream 7 has currently generated the highest profit among 2026 horror releases. It has beaten several of this year’s horror films, including Send Help, Iron Lung, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, and Ready or Not 2: Here I Come.

What Is The Plot of Scream 7?

Directed by Kevin Williamson, the seventh installment in the Scream film series is about a new Ghostface killer who shatters the quiet life Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has built in a small town. When her daughter (Isabel May) is targeted, Sidney is forced to face her past again to protect her family and stop the killings before more lives are lost.
