A Fresh Twist on a Classic Tale
The plot of Freakier Friday will take a multigenerational approach, with Anna now balancing her own daughter and stepdaughter. This new family dynamic sets the stage for another round of body-swapping shenanigans, reminiscent of the original film. However, Jamie Lee Curtis has confirmed that there will be no swap between her character, Tess, and Chad Michael Murray’s Jake, teasing that such a scenario would be a movie in itself.
Directed by Nisha Ganatra, Freakier Friday has already wrapped production and is scheduled for a 2025 release in theaters. Both Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis have shared fond memories of filming the sequel, building anticipation for what promises to be a hilarious and heartwarming continuation of the Freaky Friday story.

As fans eagerly await the release of Freakier Friday, the buzz surrounding the film continues to grow. With a talented cast, a fresh twist on the classic tale, and the return of beloved characters, this sequel is shaping up to be a must-see for audiences of all ages.
