Lindsay Lohan’s famous Disney film Freaky Friday is being remade, and the actress has announced that the band Pink Slip will be reuniting. During her appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Lohan confirmed that her character Anna’s beloved Rock Banks and Christina Vidal and Haley Hudson’s characters Maddie and Peg would be re-teaming for the sequel.
Lohan will reunite with her on-screen mother Jamie Lee Curtis in the highly anticipated sequel to the 2003 comedy film. The actress further revealed that she will again be composing music for the film.
When host Fallon asked about a Freaky Friday sequel, Lohan happily announced, “Pink Slip is back together, the band! Yes!” He further revealed that production on the film finished in August and described it as a “labor of love”.
“Jamie and I, even at the table reading, we were smiling a lot,” she recalled. Lohan said, “I don’t think we were acting well because we were so happy. But, the movie is fun. It’s really fun.”
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly at Disney’s D23 conference in August, Curtis revealed that the Mean Girls star has an emotional song she thinks could make a splash.
The Oscar winner revealed that Lohan’s song has been playing in her ears like “one of the Star Trek earworms” ever since she performed it at the Wiltern, a theater in Los Angeles.
“I’m telling you, it’s going to be a big hit,” said Curtis. She said, “I won’t tell you what it’s called because we’re in the middle of making it, but there are some old favorite characters starring in this movie.”
According to the previously revealed plot of the highly anticipated sequel, Anna (Lohan) is an adult and has a teenage daughter, and their relationship is complicated. The description further states that the film is “weirder and funnier” than the first.
The sequel will also feature returning actors Chad Michael Murray, Mark Harmon, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky and Rosalind Chao. An untitled Freaky Friday sequel is expected to be released in theaters in 2025.
