Sarah Michelle Gellar makes a significant comeback to television this week with her appearance in the prequel series “Dexter: Original Sin”. However, it is her straightforward response to a query about a former co-star that has sparked extensive online discussions. At the New York premiere on Wednesday of “Dexter: Original Sin”, an “Extra” reporter asked Gellar about the upcoming revival of “I Know What You Did Last Summer”. Gellar, who starred as teen pageant queen Helen Shivers in the 1997 horror hit but met a tragic end and is unlikely to appear in the revival, did tease an “unofficial” behind-the-scenes role in the film, which is being directed by her friend Jennifer Kaytin Robinson. She seemed excited to talk about “I Know What You Did Last Summer” at the premiere, highlighting the incredible cast and a fun script. But the conversation took an awkward turn when asked about the potential involvement of Jennifer Love Hewitt, one of the surviving characters from the 1997 film. Gellar simply replied, “I have nothing to do with that” and tried to walk away.
Fan Reactions and Speculations
Not surprisingly, the interview elicited a plethora of cheeky reactions from fans. Some speculated that the two actors might have had a feud while working on the film more than 27 years ago. One person wrote on YouTube, “I often wonder what happened between SMG and JLH. It’s clear they had a falling out. SMG is almost disgusted at her mention here lol.” On X (formerly Twitter), another person commented, “This is the kind of content I live for. Sarah Michelle Gellar’s face is a whole mood — like, ‘We’re not friends, but I’m not saying why!’”Contrasting Views
Among those who disagreed was “Extra” correspondent Tommy DiDario. Although he didn’t interview Gellar for “Extra”, he featured Hewitt on a recent episode of his “I’ve Never Said This Before” podcast, during which Hewitt spoke favorably about Gellar. DiDario wrote on X, “I’m not sure it feels like a feud to me. Perhaps we shouldn’t continue to pit women against one another for no reason. Just my two cents.”Related News and Updates
Despite Gellar’s apparent reluctance to discuss her former co-star, Hewitt on Friday confirmed her involvement in the new “I Know What You Did Last Summer” film, which is set for a 2025 release. She wrote on Instagram, “It’s never too late to go back. Julie James is returning. I know what you will be doing next summer!”New
