Jennifer Love Hewitt shows off red hair on ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ premiere red carpet

Jennifer Love Hewitt brought the heat last night.

The actress, 46, took to the red carpet for the Los Angeles premiere of “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” showing off her new ginger hair.

Hewitt, who is a natural brunette, first debuted the fresh shade in May; however, this appears to be the first time she’s worn it on the red carpet and at a public event, in general.

The star wore a form-fitting black beaded Rachel Gilbert midi dress and coordinating rhinestone-covered heels.

She forwent a necklace, opting instead for multiple rings and a stack of silver and gold bracelets on her left wrist.

“I have wanted to be red for so long!” she captioned an Instagram photo showing off her dyed hair. “@nikkilee901 crushed this color! She named my color Sunset Lover🌅Thank you”

“This is a yes for me. 😍,” fellow actress Alyssa Milano commented.

Meanwhile, her “I Know What You Did Last Summer” co-star Tommy DiDario joked, “Ravishing in red! 😍 Should I go red to match???”

Hewitt and actor Freddie Prinze Jr. are reprising their roles from the 1997 slasher film of the same name and its 1998 sequel, “I Still Know What You Did Last Summer.”

“I was hesitant at first,” Jennifer confessed to The Hollywood Reporter about returning for the franchise’s newest movie, which comes 28 years after the original. “If I was coming back as Julie, I just wanted to make sure that we were bringing back the best and right version of her,” she added, referring to her character.

“I wanted to make sure that she fit into the movie in the right way and that there was a reason for her to come back besides just the ‘90s nostalgia moment.”

At the premiere in 1997, Hewitt, then 18, wore a strapless navy embroidered dress paired with black platforms.

She pulled her brown hair up in an adorable curled ponytail.

The new cast for “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” which will be released July 18, includes Madeline Cline, Gabbriette Bechtel, Chase Sui Wonders, Austin Nichols, Jonah Hauer-King, Tyriq Withers and Billy Campbell.
