The first photos are out of Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. in the upcoming “I Know What You Did Last Summer” revival, the pair now in their late 40s reprising roles they played at 18 and 21 respectively.
The film will see a new group of five friends inadvertently causing a deadly car accident, covering it up with a pact only for someone the following year to seek revenge. So they consult the two survivors of the Southport Massacre of 1997 for help. The film opens this Summer.
