“It’s much freakier than you would expect,” Lohan said (via Good Morning America). “There’s been a lot of love, a lot of fun, and a lot of laughs on set. It’s been a great experience. I can’t say much [about the plot] but I am taking guitar lessons and I do have a daughter in the movie.”
Freaky Friday 2 is being directed by Nisha Ganatra (Late Night) from a screenplay written by Jordan Weiss. Joining Lohan and Curtis are returning cast members Mark Harmon as Ryan, Chad Michael Murray as Jake, Christina Vidal Mitchell as Maddie, Haley Hudson as Peg, Rosalind Chao as Pei-Pei, Lucille Song as Pei-Pei’s mom, and Stephen Tobolowsky as Mr. Bates. The sequel will also include new cast members Manny Jacinto (The Good Place), Sophia Hammons (Up Here), Maitreyi Ramakrishnan (Never Have I Ever), and Julia Butters (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Fabelmans). It is produced by Andrew Gunn and Kristin Burr.
At the moment, the film is currently slated for 2025 release, over two decades since the remake’s theatrical release.
