Sidney Prescott

Sidney Prescott is the one of the two original protagonist of the Scream franchise. Throughout the series' single continuity, Sidney's survivability and strength are tested against a variety of Ghostface perpetrators and their accomplices. She evolves from victim to local celebrity survivor and matures from a teenage girl with unresolved trauma to a hardened adult woman and mother.
In the original four films directed by Wes Craven, she is one of Ghostface's primary target; in the fifth entry reboot by Radio Silence, she takes on a vengeance-seeking vigilante role against Ghostface. She is one of the daughters of the first pre-series Ghostface murder victim, Maureen Prescott and widower Neil, older twin sister to Lucy, niece to Maureen's younger sister Kate, wife to a homicide detective, Mark, mother to his children Sheila, Marie, and Malia Kincaid, and aunt to Maureen, Luna, Jordan, and Dylan, as well as maternal family member to Ghostface killers, Jill and Madison Roberts (her cousins) and Roman Bridger (half-brother).
She proves herself as a survivor when she defeated original Woodsboro killers, her mastermind boyfriend Billy Loomis and fellow high school friend, Stu Macher, his accomplice. At college, a horror movie has been made about her life, Stab, which develops into a franchise. Billy's mother (under an alias) seeks revenge for her son's death in a real-life sequel, hiring contract serial killers, Mickey and Raven Altieri to pose as Sidney's friends to help commit their copycat killing spree.
Sidney is later lured out of seclusion by her half-brother Roman starting a killing spree against the cast of a cancelled Stab film, revealing his responsibility for starting the series in the conclusion of a real-life horror trilogy. For her book tour a decade later, she returned to her hometown, hoping to empower readers to overcome their traumas. She is forced to stay as evidence is planted in her sisters car framing them for a new series of killings. The Remake Massacre was planned by her fame-seeking, jealous cousin, Jill, alongside secret boyfriend, Charlie. After stopping the remake, she reconnected with Mark and they had three children.
No longer the primary target this time, she returns to Woodsboro on the near-25th anniversary of the original massacre to avenge fellow franchise survivor Dewey Riley's murder against psychotic fanatics of the original Stab film desiring a real-life reboot.
She is portrayed by Neve Campbell.
