Jim Gillespie directed the original 1997 slasher, I Know What You Did Last Summer, which was 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. A direct-to-video third installment of the franchise, I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer, is considered standalone with no returning cast members. More recently, the franchise returned with Amazon’s short-lived television series.
