Jamie Lee Curtis is open to the possibility of reprising her 2003 Freaky Friday role opposite Lindsay Lohan in a sequel. While visiting The View to promote her new movie Halloween Ends, Sarah Haines asked Curtis if she would participate in a follow-up to the film that earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy. “I’ve already written to Disney — my friends at Disney, I’m in their new Haunted Mansion movie,” she said on the ABC talk show. “I’m 64 years old today, not today, soon, in a month or whatever.
My point is I’m wide open, creatively I am wide open,” she added. Curtis then pitched ideas on what her and Lohan’s characters could be doing in the possible sequel. “Lindsay Lohan and me back in Freaky Friday.
She just made a Christmas movie I believe and she got married… It’s all good. Bring it! Let me be the grandma, let me be the old grandma who switches places, so then Lindsay gets to be the sexy grandma who’s still happy with Mark Harmon in all the ways you would be happy with Mark Harmon,” she continued. “I would like to see Lindsay be the hot grandma and I would like to see me try to deal with toddlers today, I want to be a helicopter parent in today’s world.” Freaky Friday is based on a 1972 novel by Mary Rodgers about a mother and a daughter whose bodies are switched following a magical Chinese fortune cookie.
Curtis and Lohan were the mother-daughter duo and Harmon was Curtis’ fiancé in the film. The 2003 film was the third film adaptation of the novel following a 1976 film that starred Barbara Harris and Jodie Forster and a 1995 television movie with Shelly Long and Gaby Hoffmann.
