While some netizens were more than happy to speculate about the two actresses‘supposed feud, others defended her attitude, instead critiquing theinterviewer’s question, as it had nothing to do withDexter, the project Gellar was promoting.

“It seems like a rude question. Why would a reporter ask her about a project she has no part in?“one user asked.

“It might have been that she was there to promote Dexter, notI Know What You Did Last Summer,“another wrote. “I’d like to think Sarah and Jennifer got along well. But maybe not. They were both young, and I’m sure they were competitive back then.”

Others believeGellarcut the interview short to avoid getting herself in trouble, dismissing any drama between her and Hewitt.

The upcoming sequel is set to release halfway through 2025 and will feature a mix of returning characters and new faces

The upcoming sequel toI Know What You Did Last Summerwill be released on July 18, 2025, and will continue the franchise’s legacy with a mix of familiar faces and fresh talent.

Jennifer Love Hewittand Freddie Prinze Jr. are in talks to reprise theiriconic roles, though their participation is not fully confirmed yet, a fact that some netizens believe explains Gellar’s tight-lipped response.

“Jennifer is currently going back and forth trying to work out the contract before she signs. Sarah’s talking about that. Not about her opinion of her!“a user argued.

Alongside the potential return of the original stars, a new ensemble cast has been announced, including new faces like Lola Tung, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, Austin Nichols, and Gabbriette.

Other cast members include Billy Campbell, Chase Sui Wonders, Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers, and Jonah Haur-King.

Gellar’scharacter, however, is not set to return, as she died during the events of the first movie. It’s currently unknown how much of the movie will focus on the original characters, but the casting of young and rising actors suggests cameo roles rather than full appearances.

Despite the effort of some users to dissuade people from speculating, the conversation surrounding the alleged feud gained traction

“Omg, that face she made was so sassy,” one user wrote. “Is there beef between them?”

“Whoa, Sarah reacted with almost venom at the mention of Jennifer. Something must have happened,” another said.

“I swear I’m not crazy. There is beef. This seems so shady,” argued one reader.

“I often wonder what happened between SMG and JLH. It’s clear they had a falling out.”

“The tension is real,” wrote one user, as others joined in to comment on the actresses’ supposed feud
