Lindsay Lohan – More On “Freaky Friday 2”
The 2003 film was a remake of the original 1976 movie that starred a very young Jodie Foster. Jamie Lee Curtis played the typical busy suburban mom Tess, while Lohan played the typical funky teenager, Anna.
Of course, as the story goes, the two swap bodies after a major mom-teen fight, and a wish that is made. The movie became a cult classic, and the two costars have stayed close over the years.
In fact, in the fall of 2023, Curtis teased a Freaky Friday sequel and touted a reunion with Lohan, on social media.

Curtis notes that it struck a chord, and when she returned from the publicity tour, she called Disney and said, “it feels like” a movie should be made.
