As a 2000s kid who grew up watching Disney classics, this news about the Freakier Friday sequel has me jumping with joy! I remember vividly the day I first watched Freaky Friday and the instant connection I felt with Anna and Tess. Now, seeing them reunite on screen after all these years is like a dream come true. The fact that Pink Slip is getting back together just makes it even more exciting!
It’s wild to think that more than 20 years later, fans are finally getting the Freaky Friday sequel we’ve all been hoping for, with the stars already having celebrated the sequel being wrapped. Not only are we reuniting with our favorite body-swapping mother-daughter duo, Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, but this new reveal cements that Disney is going all-in on the nostalgia factor—and trust me, you’ll love it. According to Lohan, Anna’s band, the Pink Slip, is reuniting, and I honestly could not be more excited for the OG film connection.
On “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon this week, Lohan couldn’t hide her enthusiasm as she shared juicy details about the upcoming sequel to a popular 2000s movie. The actress who starred in “The Parent Trap” disclosed: [Details left blank]
…Pink Slip is back together. The band. Yeah.
Absolutely, I find myself humming “Take Me Away” now! It’s thrilling news indeed, given that Christina Vidal and Haley Hudson will be back to reprise their characters in the upcoming sequel. Lohan has further revealed this exciting detail.
We completed it in August… Honestly, it was an incredible experience – a true labor of love from start to finish. As for Jamie and myself, during the initial reading, our smiles were simply too wide to hide. I’m not sure how convincing our performances were, but we were just so elated due to our happiness.
The actress famous for “Mean Girls” has made a recent disclosure, coinciding with an intriguing detail Jamie Lee Curtis dropped about her on-screen daughter’s significant musical scene in the sequel. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in August, Curtis couldn’t contain her enthusiasm, hinting that the movie would feature a “big hit” due to a memorable musical performance. If you share my sentiment, this sounds like the comeback of Pink Slip and hopefully one of their classic songs.
Curtis teased the moment, saying:
I’m telling you right now, this one played a song last night at the Wiltern, and it is in my ear like one of those Star Trek earworms… I’m telling you, it’s going to be a monster hit. I’m not going to tell you what it’s called because we’re in the middle of making it, but there are some old favorites played in this movie.
It seems that the forthcoming “Freakier Friday” isn’t only promising plenty of laughter but also a strong wave of nostalgia as well. To be honest, my ’00s child spirit is eagerly awaiting it.
In the classic movie Freaky Friday, Curtis and Lohan portrayed mother Tess Coleman and her teenage daughter Anna, whose lives took an unexpected turn when a magical fortune cookie led to them mysteriously swapping bodies. Spending a day in each other’s roles, they experienced the challenges that came with it, ultimately gaining valuable insights into family bonds, understanding, and self-discovery.
The upcoming sequel, which we’ve just had a sneak peek at, is penned by Jordan Weiss and helmed by Nisha Ganatra, advancing the narrative further. In this new phase of her life, Anna has grown and has a daughter, finding herself dealing with the intricacies of being a stepmother in her recent marriage. However, keeping with the spirit of Freaky Friday, an innovative take on the beloved body swap concept ensures a dose of humor and emotionally charged scenes.
I’m hyped as a gamer about the lineup for Freaky Friday 2! Newcomers like Manny Jacinto, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan are bringing fresh vibes to the story. But fear not, old-school fans, some beloved characters are making a comeback too. Chad Michael Murray, Mark Harmon, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky, and Rosalind Chao are all ready to reprise their roles, promising a reunion that’s going to be off the charts exciting!
On the 2025 cinema calendar, “Freaky Friday” is scheduled for release, gracing the big screen on August 8. In the meantime, why not reacquaint yourself with the original movie and Pink Slip’s music collection by streaming it through your Disney+ membership?
