First look at Chad Michael Murray in ‘Freakier Friday’ has fans cracking up: “Women gonna go see this for the plot”

Chad Michael Murray is back in the social media headlines after the first look of his character in 'Freakier Friday' just hit the internet raw. The internet, ofcourse is buzzing with excitement and a collective giggle that made fans go, 'Wait, what, this looks interesting!'

Fans have taken to social media like it's 2003 all over again: your boy Chad Michael Murray is back, and he is cooking a hot bucket of nostalgia for those who decorated their dorm rooms with his posters. For those who were still not happy, the title 'Freakier Friday' did the job.

Looks like the internet is having a field day predicting Chad Murray shenanigans, and who could blame them honestly? For those who are not into dorm room posters of Chad Murray and those uninitiated, the guy isn’t just some random actor set to launch himself all over again.

If we say yes, the internet may collectively say NO! To many, he is the literal and physical manifestation of the phrase '2000s heartthrob. Some fans may even ask you if you caught yourself smiling through the corner of your lips and crushing hard on him while you group binged 'One Tree Hill.'

So, pure serotonin alert here. We are going to see him in the new show Freakier Friday that is all set to hit our screens this year on 8th August. But for the Gen Z who might not know this, this movie is a sequel to 2003's Freaky Friday.

Don't let that curiosity settle down just yet. The star cast is one to get one enthusiastic as well. Starring Lindsay Lohan, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Julia Butters, the film is going to be a fantasy comedy drama, as per online resources.

What's fun in this sequel, you may ask. Well, for starters, on the four-course humor buffet, we have a mix of nostalgia with chaotic millennial and Gen Z humor. The film's bodyswap plot formula is already enough to tease out a cue gasp, but add in Chad Michael Murray? That’s just a generation of fans made super happy all over again.

While we talk of nostalgia, laughter and fun, let us dig in on the hilarious comments freshly served at the internet's ever cooking humor pot.

He's still so fine

He’s in that age-defying cohort of men - Jensen Ackles, Matt Bomer, Nathan Fillion - who were always hot. As they’ve aged, they’ve become fire hazards.
