Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis's starrer, Freaky Friday, is one of the most loved comedies. So, when it was announced that in 2025, Friday would be getting Freakier, all eyebrows were raised in surprise and apprehension.
It looks like the Piped Piper has taken away all Hollywood writers because there seem to be no new scripts in town. Wherever you look, old scripts are either being remade or getting a sequel. And the worst part is, they are never good. This trend ruined Gossip Girl, The Crow, Furosia, and many more. Talking about it makes the blood boil.
The same thing has happened with the 2003 classic. Get ready for a sequel, and let's hope it does not disappoint like the many others. The new movie will see the return of the two main stars, Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, and will be called, wait-for-it, Freakier Friday.
If the poster for Freakier Friday and their 'Home Alone inspired' expressions are to be believed, it looks like it follows the same plot as its prequel, with Tess Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis) swapping bodies with her daughter Anna (Lindsay Lohan).
There are pros and cons to this trend. The pros are for the makers who get an established fanbase for their movie, and the cons are for the audience who have to sit through a disaster if it is bad. Imagine being excited to relive your childhood with a remake/reboot or a sequel of your favorite TV show/movie and leaving with your heart broken worse than by your ex.
Fan reaction to the news of the new Freakier Friday trailer being launched
As an announcement for the new Freakier Friday movie did rounds on the internet, fans clutched their heart in excitement and fear. Every fan was seen chanting the same spell 'Please be good, Please be good, Please be good." And now things have gotten serious, as the trailer is set to release soon.
Fans expressed their emotions for Freakier Friday with hilarious reactions on X, and here are a few that will make you LOL.
A user @HarrisDamn already knows how it goes,
"10$ it's the same movie"
Another user, @emcverse, can't see another cult classic get ruined,
"Yea we don't need another"
Finally, one user, @evnlyonx, seemed excited for the franchise, but even their comment sounded sarcastic,
"Another body swap disaster incoming, and I'm SO here for it"
User @JeanLucConnery is asking a question a little too late,
"Is it too late to stop it from release?"
User @voltagekid56 seemed a little angry with this comment,
"Oh good another unnecessary legacy sequel"
User @Lakerfan2414 made a great observation,
"So basically Anna didn't have a daughter yet."
Freakier Friday has brought back many childhood memories for all 90s kids. Watching Tess Colemen and Anna swap bodies after 20 years will be hilarious. What could make them swap this time? Let's wait and watch.
