I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER Sequel In the Works; Jennifer Love Hewitt & Freddie Prinze Jr. in Talks to Return

Jennifer Love Hewitt Freddie Prinze Jr I Know What You Did Last Summer Sequel

Sony Pictures is working on a sequel to the 1990s slasher horror franchise "I Know What You Did Last Summer". The film will be directed by "Thor: Love and Thunder" co-writer Jennifer Kaytin Robinson ("Do Revenge") in her directorial debut from a script by actress Leah McKendrick. The stars of the original film Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr are in talks to reprise their roles. Neal H. Moritz is also in talks to return as producer.

The 1997 film was written by "Scream" scribe Kevin Williamson based on the 1973 novel by Lois Duncan and followed four young friends bound by a tragic accident who are reunited when they find themselves being stalked by a hook-wielding maniac in their small seaside town. It ended up grossing a total of $125.5 million worldwide and was followed by two sequels, "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" and "I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer", as well as a streaming series on Amazon.

Plot details for the new sequel are unknown at this point. The idea for the new film came from Robinson and McKendrick, who reportedly blew away studio executives when they pitched their idea for a sequel last fall. The recent success of the "Scream" reboot/sequel was an important element in Sony's decision.
