As a gamer who grew up in the ’90s and was captivated by the thrilling horror films of that era, I can hardly contain my excitement for Sony’s upcoming sequel to “I Know What You Did Last Summer.” The return of Freddie Prinze Jr., who played the lovable Ray Bronson, is music to my nostalgic ears. If Jennifer Love Hewitt signs on as well, it would truly be a reunion to remember.
The actor Freddie Prinze Jr., renowned for his role in “I Know What You Did Last Summer”, has officially been confirmed to reprise his character in Sony’s forthcoming sequel movie. In the 1997 original film, based on Lois Duncan’s popular YA horror novel, Prinze Jr. portrayed Ray Bronson, the working-class boyfriend of Julie James (the franchise’s main actress Jennifer Love Hewitt). Initially, Ray served as a potential suspect, but later proved to be an honest character after providing misleading clues about the events of the previous summer.
Initially, there were discussions about Freddie Prinze Jr. and Jennifer Love Hewitt potentially returning for the continuation of the I Know What You Did Last Summer series. Now, Freddie Prinze Jr. has confirmed his involvement, leaving fans eagerly anticipating if Jennifer Love Hewitt will join as well. The return of both actors would lend an air of authenticity to the film and help reignite the fanbase’s enthusiasm.
The movie titled “I Know What You Did Last Summer” revolves around four characters: timid Julie James (Hewitt), dockworker Ray Bronson (Prinze Jr.), Barry Cox (Ryan Phillippe), and beauty queen Helen Shivers (Sarah Michelle Gellar). They had a fateful night while driving, where they accidentally hit a man and made the grave decision to dispose of the body and hide their crime. A year later, each of them is struggling psychologically, but their torment deepens when an unknown stalker starts hunting them down, claiming to be aware of their hidden secret from the past.
For this upcoming release, we’ve assembled a fresh ensemble of actors, such as Madelyn Cline from “Outer Banks”, Tyriq Withers hailing from “Atlanta”, Jonah Hauer-King known for “The Little Mermaid”, and Tony Award-nominated Sarah Pidgeon. Initially, Riverdale’s Camila Mendes was set to play a significant part, but scheduling issues forced her to step down. Rumors suggest that Chase Sui Wonders, who starred in “Bodies Bodies Bodies”, may take over Mendes’ role.
Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (of “Do Revenge”) is at the helm of the upcoming “I Know What You Did Last Summer” film and has hinted to fans that this new installment will acknowledge its predecessors. However, it remains undecided whether this new film will follow a traditional third installment format or adopt a more innovative “requel” style. This would involve utilizing original characters and maintaining the same narrative continuity, while passing the torch of the franchise to a fresh set of characters, all while slightly modernizing the franchise’s structure. The “Scream” series, another successful ’90s horror franchise, has employed a similar approach.
The new I Know What You Did Last Summer has a release date of July 18, 2025.
