EXCLUSIVE Sarah Michelle Gellar reveals if she would move to Australia after filming surprise cameo in I Know What You Did Last Summer - and the reason why it wouldn't be in trendy Bondi
And Sarah Michelle Gellar did a great job of keeping her involvement tightly under wraps when she joined her husband of 22 years, Freddie Prinze Jr., in Australia for filming last year.
While Sarah confirmed Freddie would reprise his role as Ray Bronson in the movie last year, her return was a huge secret.
Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Australia, Sarah said she never lied about her part in the flick, but rather chose her words wisely.
'I never said I wasn't going to be in the movie. All I ever said was I was dead,' she said with a laugh.

Freddie and Sarah starred in the cult film in 1997, when he was 21 years old and she was 20. They married five years later.
Her involvement in the latest instalment of the movie came as a surprise to fans as her popular character Helen Shivers was killed off.
As for her time Down Under to film the movie, Sarah said the couple loved Australia so much they wouldn't discount putting down roots in Sydney.
'Sydney to me is that wonderful mix,' she said.
'You have the laidback beach culture of LA, but you have the modern city and the culture of New York. So I'm definitely a Sydney girl.'
But when Freddie suggested they stay in the popular beachside suburb of Bondi during their recent stay, Sarah knew better.
'No, no. Bondi is great to eat but it's too crowded. You won't love it. I know you,' she said.
The Scooby-Doo star said she much preferred Bondi's quieter neighbouring suburbs.
'Double Bay or Rose Rose, I'm ready to go,' she said, raving about the eastern suburbs' stunning beaches and top-notch coffee spots.
The couple and their children arrived in Australia for filming in November last year.
During their stay, they visited Taronga Zoo, Sea Life Aquarium and even did the Sydney Bridge climb.
After spending weeks Down Under, they left with a suitcase filled with one iconic Aussie staple.
'I am a Tim Tam girl,' she admitted.
'My suitcase was quite filled. I was very worried about customs!'
During her time filming the flick in Sydney, the idea of an Uber One partnership was born.
Uber One is a membership that offers savings on Uber rides and UberEats, and perks, like savings at the cinema.
'We were living in Rose Bay and we didn't have a car, we literally Ubered everywhere and ordered Uber Eats constantly,' Sarah explained.
'So, when Uber One approached me for this campaign, they actually showed me how much I would've saved if I'd been an Uber One member during our stay. You'll see in the ad… it was a lot.
In a promotional clip for Uber One, Sarah is reunited with the murderous fisherman from I Know What You Did Last Summer.
She shows what she could have saved last summer with Uber One - a somewhat frightening sum.
Uber One members can now watch Sarah in I Know What You Did Last Summer at Hoyts with pretty crazy perks, including $12.50 general admission tickets, $27.50 HOYTS LUX tickets and free popcorn refills.

Rachel Zegler sparks fan fury with mysterious Evita exit halfway through London show
Rachel Zegler left fans furious as she abruptly left the stage midway through her Evita performance on Thursday. The 24-year-old star of the 'woke' Snow White remake fell ill during the show at London's Palladium theatre - with her departure announced at intermission, per People. Following a brief pause, her understudy Bella Brown, who played Perón's Mistress in the musical, took on the Evita role for act 2 - which begins with Don't Cry for Me Argentina. Zegler, who has won rave reviews for her Evita portrayal, will return to the stage tonight, Friday 25th July for the evening performance, her representative confirmed to One fan wrote on social media: 'Rachel zegler ruining everything she's a part of still.' Others penned: 'Give her a job at McDonalds. It's clear this woman isnt cut out for entertainment. Stop giving her charity. 'The understudy is better. No shock. I'd give her a standing ovation if she would just leave. Always one bus stop away from knocking it out of the park with this one. On Broadway they would be demanding their $ back. So apparently woke Snow White is creating box office disasters on two continents. Shame, despite her many missteps and foibles, she seemed to doing a good job by all accounts at this at least. Others sent well wishes for the star, writing: 'Hope she's okay.' Most probably a health issue. I have watched the show and her performance is excellent, both vocals and acting. Actually, she saves a show that lacks narrative coherence and direction generally fails to make the audience emotionally attached. Rachel is playing former First Lady of Argentina Eva Peron in the show, which debuted in 1978 and was written by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Fans were left furious with the star over her abrupt exit The play follows her rise from a poor background to becoming a powerful political figure and cultural icon in Argentina. Following the announcement earlier this year, Rachel gushed: 'Evita has been such an important musical to me since I was a little girl, when my dad and I would sing Don't Cry for Me Argentina together on my back patio. 'The opportunity to bring Jamie Lloyd's singular, visionary ideas to life onstage is an honour unlike any other. The stage has always felt like home to me, and I can't wait to make my West End debut in such great company.' So far, Zegler is best known for the box office flop Snow White. Prior to its release, Snow White was mired in controversy due to comments from Zegler and the absence of the iconic song 'Someday My Prince Will Come.' In an effort to be more progressive, Disney also changed the dwarves to be called 'magical creatures.' Critics of the remake first jumped on Disney for the decision to cast Zegler in the role due to her Colombian ancestry. The original fairytale revealed that the princess is given her name because her skin is 'as white as snow.' At the time, Zegler said that the origin story had changed, and in Disney's new version the princess earns the name due to a snowstorm she survived as a child. She then came under fire for criticizing original animation when she called it 'dated' during a red carpet interview with Extra TV in 2022. She eventually walked back her comments and assured fans that the love story would be 'integral' to the remake's plot. Disney fans then expressed discontent at Zegler when she said she was 'scared' of the original version as a child and only watched it one time. Although the Disney remake has been widely considered a flop, Rachel has already lined up next role. She will be starring opposite Marisa Tomei, 60, of My Cousin Vinny fame, in her next movie role. In the upcoming comedy-drama She Gets It From Me, Zegler will play the daughter of the Tomei's wild, unruly and free-spirited character, according to the synopsis reported by Variety.
