(Warning: Spoilers for Scream VI follow.)
Scream VI answered the dreams of many of the franchise’s loyal fans, bringing back a legacy character many had once believed to be dead—but it wasn’t Stu Macher.
Kirby Reed (Hayden Panettiere), whose fate was left ambiguous in the post-Scream 4 purgatory and was confirmed alive in a Scream (2022) Easter egg, made her triumphant return in the slasher series’ latest sequel. And with her came official confirmation Stu is dead—at least, for now.
