A Streaming Guide to <i>Freakier Friday</i>

Two decades after Freaky Friday became a coming-of-age staple, Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis are finally back on screen together in Freakier Friday, the long-awaited sequel. The film is now in theaters as of August 8—almost exactly 22 years after the original film’s release.

Directed by Nisha Ganatra (The High Note), the follow-up picks up with Anna Coleman (Lohan), now a mom, as she prepares to marry British restaurateur Eric (Manny Jacinto). But when a fortune teller crashes her bachelorette party, a new round of magical mix-ups begins: Anna swaps bodies with her daughter Harper (Julia Butters), and Tess (Curtis) ends up in the body of her soon-to-be step-granddaughter Lily (Sophia Hammons). If it sounds like a lot, that’s because it is—and the film leans into every bonkers moment.

In conversation with Chloe Fineman for her ELLE summer cover story, Lohan said that making Freakier Friday was “surreal.” “I’ve never thought I would do a movie where there would be a sequel. It’s something you don’t really think about,” she shared. “And then when you get to do it, and bring a character that you knew so well back to life, in a sense, it’s exciting. There’s a comfort with it that you don’t find in a new character. It’s evolved.”

She added, “It felt really special, and so did doing my first feature back with Disney again after not doing features for such a long time. It’s a really nice thing.”

Much has changed since Lohan last walked on a Disney set. “To be back there at this time and have a full life and be able to share it with my husband and my son, it definitely feels unique in a lot of ways, and it’s nice,” she told ELLE. “There’s not a lot bringing me to the movie theaters personally right now. [Freakier Friday] is a feel-good movie, which is what I want to give people. And it’s fun.”

That sense of fun extends to the music. In one scene, Anna takes the stage again with her high school rock band, Pink Slip—a moment that fans of the original will instantly recognize. “It was kind of nerve-racking at first, because I’m not singing as me,” Lohan said. “When I was doing [Freaky Friday], I was also recording an album, so it was part of my life at the time. In this movie, I was singing it as [my character] Anna, whereas before felt more like Lindsay singing.”

Is Freakier Friday streaming yet?
