As a die-hard fan who grew up watching slasher films, the news about the new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel has me more excited than a cat on a hot tin roof! The franchise holds a special place in my heart, and the fact that it’s not ignoring its past (unlike some other franchises *cough* Star Wars *cough*) is a breath of fresh air.
The horror genre has a way of making tons of money at the box office, and it continues to be a powerful force in the entertainment industry. And some of the best horror movies have returned with new sequels as the horror renaissance continues. Case in point: the developing I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel. After chatter online, the upcoming horror movie’s director has clarified a big deal about the project.
Enthusiasts are excitedly waiting for news regarding the upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer film, especially whether or not Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. will formally join the project. A buzz online suggested that the forthcoming slasher would disregard the movie’s sequel, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. The noise on social media grew so much that director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson debunked it on Twitter, stating in a post:
it is definitely not? ISKWYDLS is cannon 🫶🏻 hope this helps https://t.co/paS4GQVN4zJuly 31, 2024
Is it that sound you’re hearing? That seems to be long-time fans of the series expressing relief. Since the movie I Still Know won’t undergo a retcon in the next film, it will maintain the impact of the chaotic massacre on its plot. This also suggests a possibility for Brandy to reprise her role as Julie’s college roommate Karla in future installments. Let’s keep our fingers (and knives) crossed!
In the 1998 follow-up movie, Brandy took on the beloved role of Karla. Despite some close calls and injuries, she successfully withstood The Fisherman’s assault. It would be thrilling to have the actress from Cinderella reprise this role as another iconic character in the upcoming sequel of I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, who openly admires the slasher series, is steering the new version with confidence. Moreover, her quick debunking of rumors online will undoubtedly excite die-hard fans. Additionally, having writer Jeff Howard on board for the script is a significant plus, given his exceptional work in projects like “Midnight Mass,” “The Haunting of Hill House,” and “Gerald’s Game” by Mike Flanagan.
Although it’s widely speculated that Hewitt and Prinze will reprise their roles in the upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer, they haven’t yet officially committed to the project at the time of this writing. However, these ’90s icons have shown enthusiasm for the possibility, frequently expressing their excitement on social media.
Given that “I Still Know” stays canonical, it seems reasonable to expect the clamor for Brandy’s inclusion will grow even louder among fans. Recently, the legendary pop artist and actress has made several appearances on screen, such as her roles in “Descendants: The Rise of Red,” which is available for streaming with a Disney+ subscription, the holiday movie “Best. Christmas. Ever!”, and a cameo in Ariana Grande’s latest music video (alongside an electrifying remix with Monica).
The sequel to “I Know What You Did Last Summer” is projected to hit cinemas on July 18th, 2025, which means production work needs to accelerate in the near future. For now, here are some upcoming movie releases slated for 2025 that you might want to keep an eye on.
