A 'Freaky Friday' Sequel is 'in the works' at Disney

 Disney has started working on the 'Freaky Friday' sequel to the 2003 body-swap comedy, which starred Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis. 

According to sources, writer Elyse Hollander is working on the script for the sequel. 

After Curtis, who played Tess the mother in the first film, kept receiving questions about a possible sequel, the actress shared that she "called [her] friends at Disney and said, ‘It feels like there’s a movie to be made’. ” 

The 'Freaky Friday' sequel would also mark Lohan's return to studio filmmaking after she made a comeback with a two-film deal with Netflix, which included the rom-com film 'Falling for Christmas'.

Lohan said about the sequel "Jamie and I are both open to that, so we’re leaving it in the hands that be. We would only make something that people would absolutely adore.”

The first film was based on a 1972 book of the same name, written by Mary Rodgers. The 2003 film was a box-office hit, raking in $160 million globally.
