Freeform is revving up its content with a brand new series that features a contemporary take on a familiar narrative. Party Of Five will chronicle the five Acosta children — Emilio, Lucia, Beto, Valentina and baby Rafael — as they navigate daily life struggles to survive as a family unit after their parents are suddenly deported to Mexico, per the series’ logline on IMDb. The show, however, has roots that goes back over 20 years! The original show, which the new take is structurally based on, ran on Fox from 1994-2000 with a slew of familiar faces that new and returning fans will recognize including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Lacey Chabert, and more!
One such star from the original cast has gone on to become one of the horror genre’s most underrated scream queens and a consistently reliable guest actor. Neve Campbell, 46, really became a household name once she joined the cast of the series as Julia Salinger in 1994. Just two years after booking the role, however, Neve went on to star in the classic Wes Craven vehicle Scream. At the age of 27, Neve had completed six season of the series and starred in the Scream trilogy. Although the late ’90s and early 2000s offered Neve a slew of success, her career took a turn to guest work and various appearances.
By the 2010s, however, Neve returned to the role that cemented her place in the horror and slasher genre with Scream 4 in 2011. From there, she had a successful stint on the Netflix flagship series House Of Cards from 2016-2017, and appeared in the Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson film Skyscraper in 2018. On Nov. 7, 2019 our sister site Deadline reported that Scream 5 was in the works and eyeing a 2021 release date, with fans hoping Neve would be attached to the project!
