Madelyn Cline I Know What You Did Last Summer Cast Trivia Game
We've returned to Southport this summer. The new I Know What You Did Last Summer has finally hit theaters with a new cast of up-and-coming actors. Like Scream (2022), I Know What You Did Last Summer is a legacy sequel that follows a new group of friends who start receiving mysterious notes a year after covering up a fatal car accident. Alongside a brand-new cast, Freddie Prinze Jr. and Jennifer Love Hewitt reprise their roles from the original film, too. So, to celebrate the new film, we had the cast — Madelyn Cline, Chase Sui Wonders, Sarah Pidgeon, Jonah Hauer-King, Tyriq Withers, and Gabbriette Bechtel — compete in a friendly game of Cast Wars to see who knows who the absolute best. Broken up into two teams, things got personal right out of the gate when Chase, Tyriq, and Gabbriette named their team the Pogues, LOL. We tested their knowledge on some of their costars' earliest acting roles, like Madelyn in Stranger Things and Tyriq in Legacies. And, don't worry, The Wilds fans, we even tested their knowledge on Sarah's role as Leah in the beloved, but short-lived, series. Plus, we wanted to see how well they know the OG movie, so they couldn't escape trivia about it, like what color dress Helen Shivers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) wore. The whole thing was so hilariously chaotic, and it'll make you love these actors (and their competitive sides) even more.

Vampire Diaries Boss Julie Plec Still Has Ideas for Another Spinoff: ‘All Anybody Has to Do Is Ask'
Following the 2022 series finale of The CW's Legacies, it's now been three years since fans have gotten to enjoy anything new set in the world of The Vampire Diaries — and that's three years too many, if you ask us. Naturally, we took our concerns to former Vampire Diaries showrunner Julie Plec, who's currently promoting her new Prime Video series We Were Liars. Here's what she told us: 'I have had ideas for more Vampire Diaries stories since we were doing the last Vampire Diaries story. All anybody has to do is ask, and I will be there.' More from TVLine The CW Books 6 Harlequin Romance Movies for Fall - Stars Include Flash, Arrow and Glee Vets We Were Liars EPs Talk Book-to-Show Changes, Including Which Sinclair Family Member Didn't Make the Cut Sherlock & Daughter Team Tease Their Plan for a Potential Season 2 of The CW's Most-Watched Drama We had previously asked Plec about continuing the franchise when Legacies ended in 2022, and her answer at the time wasn't entirely dissimilar to this latest response. 'There's absolutely hope for the future,' Plec told us three years ago. 'Brett [Matthews] and Kevin [Williamson] and I have an idea percolating in our brains that we just haven't had the time to put down on the page yet. But we definitely want to do another branch of the tree. It's just a matter of when, I guess.' Based on books by L. J. Smith, The Vampire Diaries aired for eight seasons (2009–2017) on The CW, telling the story of undead brothers Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder), whose lives were ruled by their shared obsession with vampire Katherine and her human doppelgänger Elena (both played by Nina Dobrev). The franchise expanded in 2013 with The Originals, a New Orleans-set spinoff about the world's oldest family of vampires, led by Klaus Mikaelson (Joseph Morgan). When The Originals concluded its five-season run in 2018, the franchise returned to Mystic Falls for Legacies, which followed Klaus' daughter Hope (Danielle Rose Russell) as she enrolled in a supernatural boarding school. Unfortunately, Legacies became one of many casualties when Nexstar Media Group gained a majority stake in The CW in 2022, causing the series to end after just four seasons. All told, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals and Legacies aired a combined 331 episodes across 17 seasons from 2009 to 2022. Are you hoping for an eventual return to Mystic Falls, or wherever else in the world there are smoldering vampires with stories to tell? If so, which characters from the previous three shows would you like to see the most? Drop a comment with your thoughts below.
