To celebrate the release of the trailer for Scream 5, Drew posted the old video, joking that this was a "look back".

Drew's appearance in the 1996 film came at a time when big name stars did not appear in horror films, and it helped to cement the film as a box office smash.
Scream follows the character of Sidney Prescott (played by Neve Campbell), a high school student in the fictional town of Woodsboro who becomes the target of a mysterious killer in a Halloween costume known as Ghostface.
Drew shared the video on her Instagram
Courteney Cox, David Arquette and Neve are the only stars to appear in all four films, and they will also appear in the upcoming fifth film, a direct sequel to number four.
"Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past," reads the synopsis.
Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega and Dylan Minnette will all star as newcomers to the franchise.
Neve and Courteney both return
Courteney shared the new trailer on Tuesday and fans were quick to share their excitement - and terror.
"This is terrifying even on my phone in broad daylight," shared friend Matthew Cooke as Poppy Delevingne added: "FULL GOOSEBUMPS!!!"
Scream is released on 14 January 2022.
