Jamie Lee Curtis says a Freaky Friday sequel is going to happen
2 min read
It looks like a “Freaky Friday” sequel is close to being greenlit — if it hasn’t already been. While Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan’s reunion hasn’t been officially announced, Curtis offered a final tease when we chatted at the Producers Guild Awards on Saturday.
“It’s going to happen,” he said. “Without officially saying anything is happening, I’m looking at you right now and saying, ‘Of course it’s going to happen.’ It’s going to happen.”
On February 14, Curtis shared a photo of her and Lohan on Instagram with the caption, “It’s Friday. I’m just saying! Weird fingers crossed!”
Lohan commented on the post with a crossed fingers emoji, a smiley face with heart eyes and two hands up.
At the Los Angeles premiere of “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” in November, Curtis told me, “There’s no set date, but we’re talking. People are talking. The right people are talking.”
He continued, “I’m 64 in a week and Lindsey is 36…[A sequel] Hating ourselves so beautifully, we are both committed to it, and it is not ours to make. It’s Disney’s creation and I think they’re interested and we’re talking.”
Meanwhile, Diego Luna was brought to tears on the red carpet when his 12-year-old daughter Fiona, a big “Freaky Friday” fan, was introduced to Curtis. “I’m going to cry,” the “Andor” star said after seeing Curtis hug Fiona.
Curtis whispered in Fiona’s ear. “I just told him he was going to the premiere of ‘Freaky Friday 2,’ and I told him a secret about it that nobody knows,” Curtis said. “He’s the only one in the world who knows what I told him.”
