Freakier Friday: Disney’s Iconic Body-Swap Comedy Returns with a Wild Twist!
The long-awaited sequel to Disney’s cult classic Freaky Friday is here, and this time, the body-swapping chaos is dialed up to freakier levels! With Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan reprising their beloved roles as Tess and Anna Coleman, this movie is about to take fans on a hilarious, mind-bending ride—one that no one saw coming.
A Psychic, A Storm, and a Shocking Swap
The first teaser trailer for Freakier Friday just dropped, and let’s just say—it’s nothing like what we expected. A curious visit to a psychic medium (played by Vanessa Bayer) sets the stage for yet another supernatural mishap. As she eerily hints at their fate, a raging thunderstorm seals the deal, and Tess and Anna wake up in new bodies. But here’s the twist: they don’t swap with each other this time.
Instead, Tess and Anna find themselves trapped in the bodies of two 14-year-old girls—Harper and Lily. Harper (Julia Butters) is Anna’s daughter, while Lily (Sophia Hammons) is the daughter of Anna’s fiancé, Eric Davis, a suave British restaurateur. Now, Tess is stuck as Lily, and Anna is living as Harper. Confused? So are they!
The Nostalgia Factor: Pink Slip Returns & Chad Michael Murray Rides Again
For die-hard fans of the 2003 classic, Freakier Friday has plenty of throwbacks. One of the biggest reveals? Anna and her punk-rock band Pink Slip are back, taking the stage 20 years after giving us the iconic track Ultimate.
And if that’s not enough to send ‘00s kids into a frenzy, Chad Michael Murray is back—leather jacket, motorcycle, and all. How does he fit into the story? That’s still under wraps, but seeing him ride through the trailer like it’s 2003 again is enough to set the internet on fire.
Lohan & Curtis on Their Big Reunion
The excitement isn’t just for the fans—Lohan and Curtis are just as thrilled. Reflecting on filming, Lohan shared, “Jamie and I couldn’t stop smiling at the table read. We were so happy, we probably weren’t even acting that well!” Curtis chimed in, explaining why the Freaky Friday universe still resonates: “We all judge youth and adulthood so harshly. This story forces you to literally walk in someone else’s shoes—and that’s why it works.”
Disney’s Secretive Plot: What Else Are They Hiding?
While the teaser gives us plenty of nostalgia and fresh chaos, Disney is keeping the biggest surprises under lock and key. What’s the real reason behind the second body swap? Will there be more unexpected switch-ups? And most importantly—will we get another legendary Lohan song?
With the movie hitting theaters on Friday, August 8, the countdown is officially on. One thing’s for sure—this isn’t just Freaky Friday, it’s Freakier.
