A new generation learn the truth doesn’t stay buried in first I Know What You Did Last Summer trailer

With legacy sequels working in the favour of classic horror titles like Halloween and Scream, it only makes sense that another staple of the slasher genre gets its due, with the 1997 teen chiller I Know What You Did Last Summer getting a 2025 revisit; and if Jamie Lee Curtis and Neve Campbell can face off against their boogeymen, why not let Jennifer Love Hewitt in on the fatal fray.

Hewitt and her original Summer co-star Freddie Prinze Jr. are back in Jennifer Kaitlyn Robinson‘s slasher sequel, which focuses on five friends (Madelyn Cline, Chase Sui Wonders, Jonah Hauer-King, Tyriq Withers and Sarah Pidgeon) who inadvertently cause a deadly car accident and form a pact to keep it a secret rather than face the consequences. A year later, their past comes back to haunt them and they’re forced to confront a horrifying truth: someone knows what they did last summer…and is hell-bent on revenge. As one by one the friends are stalked by a killer, they discover this has happened before, and they turn to two survivors of the legendary Southport Massacre of 1997 for help.

A direct sequel to 1998’s I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, this year’s hook-wielding Fisherman will be stalking Australian cinemas exclusively from July 17th, 2025.
