"His name is Skeet Ulrich, and he's in the next movie, so welcome him to the stage," Lillard said on Thursday afternoon. "Scream loud! Scream louder! Scream! Thank you, everyone, much love. Enjoy San Diego, have a blast."

Ulrich then joined the film's cast on the stage in Hall H. "Thank you for being here," he told the roaring crowd. "I can't tell you how honored I am to be a part of this family and to be a part of the fandom now that is really voracious, so thank you."

Ulrich also declined to confirm which character he'll be playing in the horror sequel. "I wish I could, but I was told I cannot," he explained. "I will say I play somebody with a very particular and specific past, and somebody who has a deep emotional tie to what's going on. Other than that, I'm not really allowed to say. "

Lillard and Ulrich memorably played the original two Ghostface killers, Stu Macher and Billy Loomis, in the original 1996 *Scream*. Ulrich reprised his role (in imaginary ghost form) in 2022's *Scream* and 2023's *Scream VI*, and Lillard is set to return to the franchise for the first time in the upcoming *Scream VII*.
