Billy Campbell Joins ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Reboot Movie

The cast for Sony’s I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel continues to grow, with Deadline reporting that Billy Campbell (“Mr. and Mrs. Smith”) is the latest to sign on.

Freddie Prinze Jr. is confirmed to reprise his role from the original movies and Jennifer Love Hewitt is in talks to return as well. Stay tuned for more casting news as we learn it.

The slasher franchise will return to theaters on July 18, 2025.

Madelyn Cline (“Outer Banks”) will star in Sony’s reboot alongside Sarah Pidgeon (“Gotham”), Tyriq Withers (“Atlanta”) and Jonah Hauer-King (The Little Mermaid).

Chase Sui Wonders has also joined the slasher movie’s cast.

Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Do Revenge) is on board to direct the new installment in the franchise for Sony, with Leah McKendrick (M.F.A.) writing the original draft of the screenplay. The latest draft, however, was written by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson & Sam Lansky.

Jim Gillespie directed the original I Know What You Did Last Summer back in 1997, written by Kevin Williamson (Scream) and based on Lois Duncan’s novel. The film spawned sequels in 1998 and 2006. Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. only came back for that first sequel.

More recently, the franchise returned with Amazon’s short-lived television series.
