Neve Campbell’s Sidney Prescott might just be the most iconic Final Girl. The actor’s return to the franchise for Scream 7 marks her sixth time in the role. Outside of fighting off Ghostface numerous times, Campbell has had a diverse acting career — both before and after she first declared her classmates had “seen one too many movies.”
The actor started her film career with the 1993 horror flick Dark, followed by the cult favorite The Craft, in which she plays an aspiring witch. The ’90s also saw her working opposite Patrick Stewart in The Canterville Ghost; voicing Simba’s daughter, Kiara, in The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride; and playing a starring role in the Golden Globe–winning family drama Party of Five. Since then, she’s honed in on television, taking on guest roles in series like Medium, Grey’s Anatomy, and Mad Men. Keep reading to learn about Campbell’s series and movies streaming on Netflix.
