It looks like the hit 90’s franchise ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ is getting a reboot courtesy of Sony Pictures. The original which starred Jennifer Love Hewitt was released in 1997 brought in over $125 million worldwide, and spawned the sequel the following year which added superstar Brandy to the mix and brought in a whopping 84 million worldwide.
This one is being written by writer/director Mike Flanagan and partner Jeff Howard who are adapting the 1973 Lois Duncan book again. Producing is Neal Moritz (Fast and Furious franchise) who also produced the original 17 years ago according to Deadline.com
In 2006, the straight to DVD closer in the trilogy ‘I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer’ was added to the franchise.
No word on casting for the new film, or when production will begin. Wonder if some of the original cast will make cameos?
