A sexy high gloss sizzle reel for the new I Know What You Did Last Summer movie turned up the heat during Sony’s CinemaCon show in Vegas this evening. The follow-up to the 1997 hit features returning cast members as well as new players. Jennifer Love Hewitt is back alongside former co-star Freddie Prinze Jr while Chase Sui Wonders, Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers and Jonah Haur-King have joined the franchise.
Reel opens with Cline and her hot brunette hunk in a posh home. She goes to take a bath, but is that rose tint in the water? No! It’s blood! She puts on her headphones listening to a peaceful meditation. Meantime, the hunk gets stabbed with a metal arrow that pulls him. It’s the original hook killer before the Scream guy. Amid hooking and blood, and the realization that it’s not the first time that there’s been violence in Southport and Chase Sui Wonders exclaiming “something is coming after us,” there’s a shot of Love Hewitt who exclaims, “I have one question for you: Do you know what you did last summer?” Mic drop.
The logline: When five friends inadvertently cause a deadly car accident, they cover up their involvement and make 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.
IKWYDLS also stars Billy Campbell, Gabbriette Bechtel, Austin Nichols, Lola Tung and Nicholas Alexander Chavez.
The horror pic is directed by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson from a story by Leah McKendrick & Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, a screenplay by Leah McKendrick and Sam Lansky & Jennifer Kaytin Robinson. It’s produced by Neal H. Moritz.
Sony releases domestically on July 18.
