by

As a lifestyle expert with decades of movie-buff experience under my belt, I must say that the upcoming Freaky Friday sequel has me more than just a little excited! Having grown up with the original film and its catchy tunes from Pink Slip, hearing about the band’s return in the sequel is like revisiting old friends.

Jamie Lee Curtis recently shared exciting news about the upcoming sequel of “Freaky Friday,” especially for fans who love the fictional rock band from the movie, Pink Slip. In an interview with PEOPLE during the D23 Expo on August 9, she revealed that Pink Slip will make a comeback in the new film, bringing joy to fans everywhere.

In the original “Freaky Friday,” Lindsay Lohan portrayed Anna, Christina Vidal played Maddie, and Haley Hudson was Peg. The song “Pink Slip” was a significant aspect of the film and left a lasting impression on many viewers. The actress has confirmed that they will reprise their roles in the sequel, with the line “Pink Slip is back” being used.

Lindsay Lohan, known for her portrayal of Anna and serving as the lead singer of Pink Slip, shared some intriguing hints about Pink Slip’s role in the upcoming sequel. During filming, Lohan mentioned that audiences seemed to adore their on-stage performances as a band, suggesting there might be more musical moments from Pink Slip in this new installment.

During the filming of our songs, the crowd would cheer “Encore!” But we responded, “We only prepared one song; we didn’t anticipate this!” However, it turned out that there were indeed additional songs in the movie, as she later explained.

Curtis hinted at enhancing excitement by mentioning a song in the movie that is likely to stir emotions among viewers. She went on to say that this tune will tug at your heartstrings, and predicted it would be a summer hit, referring to it as “the song of the summer”. She playfully encouraged fans to put trust in her, even though she jokingly referred to herself as an old lady.

In my enthusiastic pursuit, I’ve learned that Entertainment Weekly revealed intriguing tidbits about the upcoming film sequel. It seems the plot isn’t fully disclosed yet, but here’s what we know so far: The fascinating twist is that our beloved characters, Tess Coleman played by Curtis and Anna Coleman portrayed by Lohan, will trade bodies with two teenagers reminiscent of their original film counterparts. Excitingly, Curtis will be back as Tess, while Loha will reprise her role as Anna. Interestingly, Nisha Ganatra takes the director’s chair for this project, with Jordan Weiss contributing to its script.

The sequel has been filming since June 24th, as evidenced by a photo shared by Walt Disney studios showing Curtis and Lohan on set. In the picture, they are seated in front of each other’s trailers, with one behind the other. This snapshot suggests that their roles have been swapped, as Lindsay Lohan is seen smiling and “rocking out” – a role typically associated with Meryl Streep’s character Theresa May. This image has sparked excitement and nostalgia among fans, who are looking forward to seeing these beloved characters and the band return to the screen once again.

Needless to say, I can hardly contain my excitement! Indeed, it’s a dream come true that Mark Harmon, Chad Michael Murray, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky, and Rosalind Chao are all set to reprise their iconic roles in the sequel. They’re like old friends returning for a reunion I never wanted to end! This movie aims to walk a fine line between nostalgia and novelty, promising a fresh take that will surely delight fans who have been along for the original journey. Can’t wait to see what they’ve got in store for us!

So far, anticipation for the Freaky Friday sequel is growing as it’s set to be released in 2025. Fans can hardly wait to see what lies ahead, especially since Pink Slip will reappear and music has been teased. Fans of Freaky Friday are eagerly looking forward to the sequel, with Curtis and Lohan expressing excitement about its emotional impact.

Having grown up as a die-hard fan of this franchise, I found this film to be a heartfelt love letter to us fans, yet simultaneously paying homage to the beloved elements from its predecessors while giving them fresh and innovative twists in new contexts. As someone who has lived through the evolution of this series, it was truly captivating to witness how the creators seamlessly blended nostalgia with innovation.
