Lindsay Lohan’s Fond Memories
Nancy Meyers also shared a nostalgic post featuring a throwback photo of herself directing a young Lohan on set. In the photo, Lindsey, who was just 11 years old at the time, is seen in character as Hallie Parker and Annie James, the twin sisters she portrayed in the movie.
The film, which Lohan starred in alongside Dennis Quaid and the late Natasha Richardson, tells the story of twin sisters who are reunited at summer camp and plot to bring their separated parents back together. The heartfelt reunion and clever schemes of the twins captured the hearts of audiences and solidified her place in Hollywood.
Revisiting Disney Classics
Lohan’s post came amidst exciting news about another beloved Disney film from her past. Disney announced that production has begun on a sequel to the 2003 film Freaky Friday. The new feature will reunite Lindsey Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, and continue the story of Tess and Anna, who experience a body-swap crisis in the original movie.
In the sequel, Anna, now with a daughter and a stepdaughter, navigates the challenges of merging families, suggesting that the sequel will bring more humor and heartwarming moments to fans of the original film. Will Anna swap bodies with one of her children as she did with her mom? Fans will have to wait and see. As she balances her career and personal life, Lohan looks forward to expanding her own family with her husband Bader Shammas, with whom she shares a son, Luai.
