It was announced earlier this year that an I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot is heading to theaters in 2025, and it’s expected to be a legacy sequel, which means horror fans have been waiting to find out if the original film’s stars will be popping up. Considering Jennifer Love Hewitt’s Julie James and Freddie Prinze Jr.’s Ray Bronson survived the events of both I Know What You Did Last Summer and I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, those are the big names folks are waiting to hear about. However, there’s one other famous face that survived the sequel: Brandy Norwood’s Karla Wilson. Norwood previously revealed that she’d be open to returning to the role, and gave a new update to Entertainment Tonight

“I heard some things about,” Norwood teased. “So, hopefully … I don’t know how she would come back,” she added. “I haven’t thought about that yet but I know that she should come back. She should definitely come back.” Norwood revealed that they have reached out to her about the project. “So, we’ll see what happens.”
