Sarah Michelle Gellar Explains Her Awkward Response to Jennifer Love Hewitt’s Film Reboot
Sarah Michelle Gellar cleared the air after she seemed to snub a reporter who asked about her former co-star Jennifer Love Hewitt. While at the premiere of her new series Dexter: Original Sin on Dec. 11, Gellar was asked if she knew whether Hewitt would be returning for the upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot movie. “I have nothing to do with that,” the actress said quickly before stepping away. The moment went viral online and resurfaced old rumors of an on-set feud between the two women as stars of the original 1997 slasher movie. On Friday, however, Gellar explained why she seemed so cagey in her Instagram stories, chalking up her behavior to not wanting to violate non-disclosure agreements after she accidentally posted photos from the project’s set several weeks prior. “Aspiring actors please note: this deer in the headlights reaction is perfect for when you are excited to see so many old friends in one project but have already stupidly forgotten what NDA means once this month,” she wrote. Ultimately, Hewitt also confirmed her return to the reboot on Friday captioning a photo on Instagram. “It’s never too late to go back. Julie James is returning. I know what you will be doing next summer!”
