“I can say that Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. are back in action, and they are still so hot,” Wonders, 28, told The View hosts. “So good-looking. My God!”

Wonders also reacted to seeing the franchise’s famed bloody hook, used by the villainous fisherman, on a movie’s poster shown on a screen behind her. “The hook! The hook is back!” she said.

Hewitt, 46, and Prinze, 49, will reunite in their respective roles as Julie James and Ray Bronson for the first time since starring in 1998’s I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. The series centers on four friends who are stalked by a hook-wielding killer after trying to cover up a car accident in which they think they killed a man.

There was also a third film in 2006 with a new cast, I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer, plus a reimagined Prime Video series that debuted in 2021, all inspired by a 1973 novel by Lois Duncan.

While the series itself gets pretty gory, Prinze ended up meeting wife Sarah Michelle Gellar during filming. The pair wed in 2002 and share two children, Charlotte and Rocky.

Wonders recently spoke with PEOPLE about the upcoming slasher reboot at the premiere of her new Apple TV+ series, The Studio, which was held during the 2025 SXSW Film & TV Festival at the Paramount Theatre in Austin, Texas, on Friday, March 7.

“It’s really fun, and the cast is incredible. We filmed partially in Australia and now we’re finishing up in L.A.,” Wonders said.

After calling director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Do Revenge) “a genius,” the actress went on to say that Hewitt, Prinze, and Gellar are “icons, and we’ve gotten to meet all of them.”

In March 2025, a poster and a synopsis for the film was revealed. “When five friends inadvertently cause a deadly car accident, they cover up their involvement and make a pact to keep it a secret,” the synopsis read. “A year later … as one by one the friends are stalked by a killer … they turn to two survivors of the legendary Southport Massacre of 1997 for help.”

I Know What You Did Last Summer is in theaters July 18, 2025.
