Disney has shared the trailer for Freakier Friday, the sequel film to 2003's Freaky Friday starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis. Twenty-two years after the original film's debut, Curtis and Lohan are reprising their roles as Tess and Anna Coleman, respectively.
Per Deadline, the story picks up years after Tess (Curtis) and Anna (Lohan) endured an identity crisis. Anna now has a daughter of her own and a soon-to-be stepdaughter. As they navigate the myriad challenges that come when two families merge, Tess and Anna discover that lightning might indeed strike twice. An official synopsis reads: "Years after Tess and Anna endured an identity crisis, Anna now has a daughter and a soon-to-be stepdaughter. As they navigate the challenges that come when two families merge, Tess and Anna discover that lightning might strike twice."
A trailer for the film released Friday shows the mother-daughter duo visiting a psychic (Vanessa Bayer). Tess and Anna leave in a hurry but the next day, they appear to have switched places with Anna's daughter and her "soon-to-be stepdaughter." (Tess and Anna switched bodies in the original 2003 film).
Other returning stars from the original film include Chad Michael Murray, Mark Harmon, Christina Vidal Mitchell, Haley Hudson, Lucille Song, Stephen Tobolowsky and Rosalind Chao. Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, Manny Jacinto and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan also star.
