I Know What You Did Last Summer director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson has explained why The Summer I Turned Pretty star Lola Tung was cut from the new '90s horror sequel. Set 28 years on from the original movie, the horror sequel sees Freddie Prinze Jr and Jennifer Love Hewitt reprise their respective roles as survivors Ray Bronson and Julie James.

Lola Tung and Nicholas Alexander Chavez were cut from the new I Know What You Did Last Summer movie and the director explained the reason why.

The director of the slasher reboot says the decision to cut the actors’ scene “sucks”, but was a necessary one.

Lola Tung and Nicholas Alexander Chavez have been cut from I Know What You Did Last Summer, a disappointing update that director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson just confirmed in an interview with People. Apparently, Lola and Nicholas' scene was intended to be the opening of the slasher film, but it didn't "fit" in.

Director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson confirmed at the horror slasher's Los Angeles premiere on Monday that Tung and Chavez both had a scene at the opening of the film, but she made the "hard choice" to slash that sequence.
