Jenna Ortega is an extraordinary force of mayhem and murder. The young actress proved in 2022 that she has both the capability and appetite to play an iconic character. Stepping into the role of Wednesday, she brought the most incredible version of the Addams Family’s daughter that fans ever saw. From her killer dance moves to her deadly stare, she sent chills down the spines of viewers becoming an internet sensation. Now almost nine months after the show’s release, her fans have made a prediction about her bright future.
A user named MyTimeToShineHello on X recently rolled out an opinion tweet for Ortega’s budding career. In this post, the fan wrote the Netflix star might not return to Scream 7. Since the franchise is ready to kick-start production when the double strike ends, but the actress is occupied with other projects. So movies like these do not come on her priority list and have far better things to work on.
It's unlikely that Jenna Ortega will return for Scream 7. They want to start filming as soon as possible after the strikes are over but Ortega is a star now thanks to Wednesday and is super busy. Scream is just not a priority for her.

Well, this user might just be assuming because of his love for the 21-year-old, but she is actually busy these days. At the beginning of July, she was captured on the sets of Beetlejuice 2 wearing a wedding gown. In the sequel, she is playing the daughter of Winona Ryder who has attained mastery in playing the deadpan roles previously.
As for her role in Scream 7, many consider that the return of Tara Carpenter is important for the story. Several fans have put in their suggestions on how the American actor can make a comeback without ruining her busy schedule.
Fans weigh in on the casting of Jenna Ortega in Scream 7
Seeing this, tweet fans took to the comment section to express their views about whether the Scream Queen will return to the franchise or not. Some are saying the California native can star in the seventh installment and get killed in the beginning. This way, her role will end forever from the franchise, giving her time to focus on other things.
She can easily be killed in the opening and that will trigger her older sister give in to her dad's side of killer genes!

I doubt she won't be in the movie at all, either they adjust the filming schedule for her or she just gets killed off early in the film

Risky for the studio. But they can come up with an excuse for her to not be around.

If true, makes me even more bummed about the lack of cohesion/priority in this new series. They could’ve done some new things with the series, that fans have wanted. Hoped for a cliffhanger @ the end of 6. A hyper serialized/continuous story, not the same killer of the week vibe.

On the other hand, some fans are saying she has always been passionate about this project and will make time for it. Not to mention, she is now an important asset to them. Nonetheless, curious fans are still dubious about the same.
Jenna loves the franchise she’s gonna make sure she’s in it

i’d be surprised if they don’t make HER a priority.

Highly doubt, she’s very passionate about both the franchise, her character and where they could go from here, and would want to be back no matter what.
Not to mention she probably has scream to thank for boosting her to be in things like Wednesday as that seemed to boost her.

I don’t think Jenna would just return to be killed off in the opening just to be in the movie. I mean by her bangs in the 6th you can feel what they filmed early and last.
