On Monday, actress Lindsay Lohan announced her excitement about the final days of filming for “More Freaky Than Ever,” the long-awaited sequel to Disney’s 2003 blockbuster. The title was confirmed at Disney’s D23 Expo earlier this month, and it’s been revealed that the movie is set for release in cinemas. This news follows Curtis confirming that filming for “More Freaky Than Ever” has been completed, while also expressing admiration for her on-screen daughter.

What Is Freaky Friday About?

In the movie titled “Freaky Friday“, the character Tess Coleman, portrayed by Curtis, and her daughter Anna Coleman, played by Lohan, have a strained relationship. One unusual Friday, they mysteriously swap bodies, causing them to navigate each other’s lives for an unforgettable day. Besides Curtis, Lohan, Chad Michael Murray, Mark Harmon, Harold Gould, Rosalind Chao, Lucille Soong, Ryan Malgarini, Willie Garson, Christina Vidal, and Haley Hudson were also part of the star-studded cast of “Freaky Friday“.

The storyline of Freaky Friday originates from Mary Rodgers’ 1972 children’s book with the same name, which has been adapted into various forms over the years. These adaptations include a 1972 film starring Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster, a 1995 TV movie featuring Shelley Long and Gaby Hoffman, as well as a 2018 Disney Channel Original Movie musical with Cozi Zuehlsdorff and Heidi Blickenstaff. Additionally, it served as inspiration for the 2020 horror film Freaky, produced by Blumhouse, starring Kathryn Newton and Vince Vaughn.
