SYNOPSIS:A group of young adults is hunted by a hook-wielding killer out for revenge a year after they covered up an accidental murder.
The iconic late-’90s slasher series I Know What You Did Last Summer is making a comeback with a legacy sequel, bringing exciting news and updates for fans. While critics weren’t kind to the original film, it was a box office hit, earning profits that far exceeded its budget (via Box Office Mojo). This success led to several sequels throughout the 2000s, though their quality generally declined. A short-lived TV series attempted to revive the ’90s classic, but it seemed I Know What You Did Last Summer had lost its appeal. However, the film has since become a cult favorite, and a fourth movie aims to capitalize on the legacy sequel trend of the 2020s.
Although many details about the new sequel remain unknown, the latest news confirms the release date for the new I Know What You Did Last Summer movie. Major announcements are expected soon, generating anticipation for this potential summer blockbuster.
Perhaps the most thrilling news is that original stars Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. are in talks to reprise their roles as Julie and Ray. However, there’s still uncertainty surrounding the cast. Hewitt has expressed her eagerness to return, indicating she hasn’t been officially approached yet. Similarly, Freddie Prinze Jr. mentioned he hadn’t been asked to return, casting doubt on his involvement.
