It seems like the sequel to ‘Freaky Friday’ is close to being greenlit. While a reunion of Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan has not been officially announced.
Curtis offered the ultimate tease when we chatted Saturday at the Producers Guild Awards. “It’s going to happen,” she said. “Without saying there’s anything officially happening, I’m looking at you in this moment and saying, ‘Of course it’s going to happen.’ It’s going to happen,” she added.
Earlier this month on February 14, Curtis shared a photo of her and Lohan on Instagram with the caption, “It’s Friday. I’m just sayin! Freaky fingers crossed!” Lohan commented on the post with emojis of crossed fingers, a smiley face with heart eyes and two hands up.

She continued, “I’m 64 in a week and Lindsay is 36…[A sequel] lends itself so beautifully, We’re both committed to it, and it’s not ours to make. It’s Disney’s to make and I think they’re interested and we’re talking.”
Curtis whispered in Fiona’s ear. “I just told her she’s going to the premiere of ‘Freaky Friday 2’ and I told her a secret about it that nobody knows,” Curtis said. “She’s the only one in the world who knows what I just told her.”
Freaky Friday is a 2003 American fantasy-comedy film which starred Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan as a mother and daughter, respectively, whose bodies are switched by a mysterious and magical Chinese fortune cookie.
The film grossed over $160 million worldwide on a budget of only $26 million, marking it a commercial success.
