KEY POINTS

Neve Campbell said she is "not done" with the movie franchise
Campbell would consider returning to "Scream" if the fee is commensurate to her work
"Had I been a man in this franchise -- 25 years, five movies, the offer would have been very different": Campbell

Original "Scream" star Neve Campbell gave fans a glimmer of hope regarding her return to the blockbuster '90s slasher film franchise.

The 48-year-old star recently revealed that she will not be returning to "Scream 6" after receiving an offer that "did not equate to the value" that she felt she brought to the franchise.

Campbell may return to the movie if the proposed talent fee is right, the actress said in an exclusive interview with ET.

"I'm not just done with the chapter," Campbell told ET while promoting a new public service announcement by the American Red Cross that aims to encourage blood donations. "I care about these movies. If they were to come to me with an amount that felt in keeping with... the value that I bring them, I would certainly consider it. I care about these new directors [Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett]. They did such a great job on the last one and I wish them luck."

The actress continued, "This young cast, it saddens me that my departure might have some effect. But at the same time, I needed to stand up for myself, so I hope that they still had a good time and good experience with the film. I wish them well. It was just unfortunate, it's not how it should have gone and my feeling truly is: had I been a man in this franchise -- 25 years, five movies, the offer would have been very different."

This year's "Scream" saw original stars Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette, reunite for another round of terror with ghostface. The movie, which was filmed with an estimated $24 million budget grossed $81 million in theaters in the U.S. and Canada, and $140 worldwide, according to IMDB.

Previously, Campbell said she would not be reprising her role of Sidney Prescott from the original "Scream" movies to the next "Scream" iteration owing to a pay dispute.

"Sadly, I won't be making the next 'Scream' film. As a woman, I have had to work extremely hard in my career to establish my value, especially when it comes to 'Scream.' I felt the offer that was presented to me did not equate to the value I have brought to the franchise. It's been a very difficult decision to move on," Campbell said in a statement at the time.
