Los Angeles, July 20 (NationPress) Hollywood star Jennifer Love Hewitt has revealed that she has not been in contact with actress Sarah Michelle Gellar for nearly three decades.
So, how long exactly? It’s almost 30 years. The two actresses collaborated in the film 'I Know What You Did Last Summer', as reported by 'Variety'.
Despite the prolonged silence, Jennifer insists there is no animosity between them. "I honestly don’t even know what that was or how that all came to be," Hewitt commented regarding the rumored feud with Gellar.
In an interview with 'Vulture' magazine, she expressed, "I just think people don’t want the narrative to be easy. Why do we always have to be against each other and out for each other? I haven’t seen Sarah. Literally, we’ve not talked since I saw her at 18 years old when the first movie came out. That’s why it’s so funny to me."
She added, "People were like, ‘Say something back’ and I’m like, ‘What am I going to say? I’ve not seen her.’ From my side, we’re good. I have no idea where this is coming from."
Both Jennifer and Gellar returned to their roles in the 2025 reboot of 'I Know What You Did Last Summer', which premiered on Friday. Jennifer reprises her role as Julie James, guiding a new group of young characters who are being stalked by a hook-wielding fisherman.
Gellar’s character, Helen Shivers, originally dies in the first movie but appears in the reboot through a dream sequence to alert Southport’s new it-girl, Danica Richards (played by Madelyn Cline), of impending danger. Freddie Prinze Jr. also makes a return as Ray Bronson in the new film.
