Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. are back in the new film, which follows a similar premise to the 1997 original.
On Thursday, Sony Pictures released the first teaser poster for its I Know What You Did Last Summer legacy sequel — also titled I Know What You Did Last Summer.
The poster once again focuses on the disguised killer’s infamous hook, seen dripping with blood on the image. Alongside the title treatment — which is exactly same as the original film’s — is the movie’s July 18 release date.

In addition to the new poster, Sony dropped the official synopsis for the horror flick.
“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,” it reads. “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.”
While that is basically the premise of the first film, the rest of the synopsis brings it full circle — adding, “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.”
