The protagonists of the original 1997 installment and the 1998 sequel, Jennifer Love Hewitt y Freddie Prinze Jr.are back reprising their roles as Julie James and Ray, respectively
The feature film has been conceived as “a legacy sequel” trilogy style Halloween from Blumhouse, and the relaunch of the franchise Screamand like those mentioned, brings back the original stars.

The original film directed by Jim Gillespie, is loosely inspired by the suspense novel of the same name by Lois Duncan. The film written by Kevin Williamson It arrived in theaters shortly after the hit Scream (1996). After the box office success of the latter, Sony's Columbia Pictures bought the rights to the screenplay by Williamson (screenwriter of Scream and its sequels), taking advantage of the huge resurgence of the slasher genre in the mid-90s.
And this time the strategy is repeated, since Robinson and McKendrick are said to have been inspired by the saga's revival Screamwhich released the fifth installment in 2022, was released the following year Scream VIand currently have in development Scream 7.
The plot of IKWYDLS focuses on a group of four friends, Julie (Hewitt), Ray (Prinze Jr.), Barry (Ryan Phillippe) and Helen (Sarah Michelle Gellar), who, on American Independence Day and after celebrating their high school graduation, accidentally run over and kill a man fleeing the crime scene, after throwing the body to a lake. Nothing happens until a year later, when one of the group members, Julie, receives an anonymous message: “I know what they did last summer.” After the mysterious letter, a man dressed as a fisherman, with a dark raincoat and a hook instead of a hand, begins to attack them one by one, threatening to discover their secret. It had a global box office of $125.5 million with a budget of $17 million.
The studio later released the sequels I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998) with the return of Hewitt and Prinze, and I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006), with new cast. More recently, Prime Video made a series based on the original film, which was canceled after one season aired.
