The official trailer for the upcoming sequel to “I Know What You Did Last Summer” was released just a few days ago, and now the director is teasing some juicy tea about the film.

Since the announcement of the reboot/sequel plans last year, dedicated fans of the franchise have been eager to learn if original cast members Freddie Prinze Jr. and Jennifer Love Hewitt would return in any capacity.

As expected, fans have also petitioned for the return of Brandy, who joined the franchise in the 1998 sequel, ‘I Still Know What You Did Last Summer,’ alongside Prinze and Hewitt.

Brandy initially expressed her interest in participating in the new film and later confirmed that she had been in contact with the team behind the project.

Director and co-writer Jennifer Kaytin Robinson dropped clues during an interview with Entertainment Weekly while speaking about the return of legacy characters and the possibility of Brandy reprising her role.

On Brandy’s possible return:

“Here’s what I feel like I can say without spoiling anything,” Robinson says. “We do find out what happened to her. I’m a huge fan of this franchise, and I came at this as a huge fan of this franchise. So that’s all I’ll say.”

On the return of Jennifer and Freddie:

“Catching up with Ray, you see how that has shaped him into the position he’s in now. He loves his town and not everyone else does, in his view, and he’s a little grumpier with the way the world has treated him since [the 1997 Southport Massacre]. So he has gone through a lot, and I don’t know if he’s dealt with it the way the modern man deals with stuff, you know what I mean? He’s a guy from the ’90s like myself, so I think he’s probably bottled up a lot more of those feelings we’ve talked about.”

In the final scene of 1998’s I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, we see Julie getting pulled under the bed by a serial killer while Ray is in the bathroom brushing his teeth, seemingly next to be attacked.

Robinson is ready to explain. “So the way that I’ve approached the franchise is that I feel like those final scenes in the first two movies live outside the cannon,” she tells EW, “because in the first movie she gets attacked through the shower, through the glass door, and in the second movie, she gets pulled under the bed. So they’re both alive and well, and what I will say is that we have continued the tradition in our film.”
