Who is Jennifer Love Hewitt's husband, Brian Hallisay? The banker-turned-actor met his future wife of 11 years on set, and the pair have since welcomed 3 children
The iconic 90s horror film I Know What You Did Last Summer is coming back for a sequel.
Not only is much of the original cast, including Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr., returning, but so is the drama surrounding the OG stars. Our leading ladies, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Hewitt, were said to be feuding when rumours suggested the latter got the Cruel Intentions star's character axed. 'I was 18. They were not taking script notes from me,' Hewitt later clarified, per the Hollywood Reporter.

However, the supposed beef resurfaced when, in an interview at the premiere of Gellar's show Dexter: Original Sin, she was asked about Hewitt possibly reprising her role and she bluntly replied, 'I have nothing to do with that.'
Later, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer actress explained on her Instagram Story that she was simply being too cautious about not violating any NDAs. Notably, in November 2024, she did get in a bit of trouble for jumping the gun and posting a snap from the set of IKWYDLS 2 before it was announced that the cameras were rolling.

This week in PostMag: a queer-friendly football team, Innsbruck and Michelin
Throughout my life, I've been lucky to feel like I belong – at least as much as anyone can hope to. I grew up on the central coast of California, where ethnic ambiguity didn't raise any eyebrows. I was never made to feel different or like an outsider. 'People saw me as white, so that was how I felt,' wrote my colleague, and fellow half-Asian, Shea Driscoll, in a recent essay exploring his own evolving sense of identity. That hit home. And though I didn't explicitly think of myself as white, I certainly was never forced to think of myself as 'different'. I could just be. It was a privilege I didn't realise I had until I moved to the United States' East Coast. There, where the racial demographics are different from California, I started getting the question, 'But where are you really from?' for the first time. I met friends who looked like me but had spent their lives feeling like they didn't fit in. This issue's cover feature brought these memories flooding back. At its core, it's a story about making a space yourself when the world won't allow you one. Sarah Keenlyside spends a day on the pitch with Baes FC – a women- and queer-friendly football team in London founded by members of the Asian diaspora off the back of discrimination at other clubs. They've made a home and community for people who felt like outsiders elsewhere. There are so many ways a sense of home can be created. Off the pitch and inside three very distinct Hong Kong flats, Peta Tomlinson investigates the trend of wood as a way for interior designers to evoke a sense of warmth. It's a transformative effect on the city's usual cold, characterless residential spaces. As Michelin continues its march towards world domination, Gavin Yeung explores what it means to be the only Michelin-starred restaurant in your region as he stops at two establishments in Thailand in a delicious adventure. The Old World beckons to Peter Neville-Hadley as he finds himself wandering Innsbruck's history-laden streets in Austria. In what is mostly known as a ski destination, he discovers excitement off the powdered slopes in the city's palaces, churches and treasure-filled museums. For our loyal readers of Then & Now, I regret to inform you that this will be the last for a while. After more than two decades of columns, our dear Jason Wordie will be taking a (much-deserved) break. We look forward to his return – but until then, we'll miss it dearly as I expect you all will, too.

Why Gen Z are suddenly flocking to Broadway productions like Sam Gold's Romeo + Juliet
Kimberly Belflower knew John Proctor is the Villain needed its final cathartic scene to work – and for that it needed Lorde's 2017 song 'Green Light'. Advertisement 'I literally told my agent, 'I would rather the play just not get done if it can't use that song,'' the playwright laughed. She wrote Lorde a letter, explaining what the song meant, and got her 'Green Light'. Starring Sadie Sink, the staggering play about high schoolers studying Arthur Miller's 1953 play The Crucible as the #MeToo movement arrives in their small town in the US state of Georgia earned seven Tony nominations. It is among a group of Broadway shows that have centred on the stories of young people and attracted audiences to match. Advertisement
