The first look photo forI Know What You Did Last Summershows the killer’s infamous hookand the X post also shared that the movie will be in theaters in the summer of 2025. The film has been shooting in Australia this past fall, which Gabbriette also mentioned in an interview withElle Magazinein November 2024.

The photo shows the killer’s infamous hook, which is what sets him apart from other slasher villains. While Ghostface uses a knife and, in Scream6,becomes even more violent and uses a shotgun,Ben Willis (Muse Watson), or The Fisherman, uses a hook. It’s possible to assume that this weapon was inspired by the urban legend of a villain with a hook for a hand attacking a couple in their car. But there is another reason for the hook. According toSyFy, Kevin Williamson, who wroteI Know What You Did Last Summer, decided on this weapon because his family are fishermen. He explained, “I utilized that little old hook that I’d seen hanging on the back of the fish house all my life.”

Thesequel has cast several other actorsincludingGabbriette, Jonah Haur-King, Austin Nichols, Sarah Pidgeon Madelyn Cline, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, Tyriq Winters, Bily Campbell, and Lola Tung.It’s possible to guess that The Fisherman is back terrorizing a new group of teenagers and Ray and Julie are there to help since they have the wisdom of their fear-inducing experience. Chances are the movie will appeal to fans thanks to the nostalgic factor and also pick up some new ones.
