Without making you wait any longer, let us get started with a brief run-on about the Slasher franchise, just in case you don’t know much about it.
The American Slasher franchise Scream which was created by Kevin Meade Williamson, consists of a television series, six films, games, and other merchandise. The budget for this film series was $175 million, but it has earned around $913 million across the world to date at the box office. Amidst the success of the series, it has also faced controversies that claim that Scream has copycat crime inspired by the real world and includes violence.
The character Sidney Prescott is the main protagonist of Scream. She has appeared in all four sequels of the show. She was born on Wednesday, 14th March 1979, to Maureen and Neil Prescott. Being a normal teenage girl, she had grown up in Woodsboro, California, a small upscale town, and she spent her whole life there. She is a writer at present and a former crisis counselor. Her major goal in Scream is to defeat Ghostface, deny victimhood and prove herself and her very own life as a survivor.

It is revealed in Scream 4 (2022) that Sidney Prescott ends up with Mark Kincaid. Wait What? Yes, the same homicide detective whom she met during Scream 3 (2000) for the first time. To be more precise, Sidney is married to Mark Kincaid, and he is the father of her children. After almost 22 years, their relationship has been re-addressed in the new Scream film as an easter egg for the fans who had grown with this series in a long shot.
It is exposed to the audience that the couple eventually ended up marrying and having around three kids amidst the events of the fourth and five Scream films, which would be sometime during the decades of 2010s. Previously she had been portrayed as single and may be going through a breakup with Mark or already broken up with him in the fourth entry of the franchise.
It is disappointing to know that the development of Mark and Sidney’s relationship has been completely off-screen and up to the audience’s imagination because of the release gaps (eleven years) between their first interaction film and their marriage announcement film from Scream 3 in 2000 to Scream 4 in 2022 and also Scream 4 to Scream 5 in 2022.
The two had created a bond beyond their haunted and dark lives in the third film, given that Sidney is a serial killing spree survivor and Mark is a Homicide detective. At the same time, Mark Kincaid flirts with his beloved Sidney, and Wallace, a detective, picks up on this. Mark and Sidney must have dated sometime in the long decade period between 2000-2011, but it is certain that they must have also had a break up according to the fourth Scream film, which mentioned that she was single.
