Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis officially reunited for Freaky Friday 2, titled Freakier Friday, and the movie's trailer – which you can watch below – is already here, with the summer release date also confirmed

The concept of a 'Freaky Friday film' has been done many times before but the 2003 movie created by Disney instantly became iconic. The film followed a mother, played by Jamie Lee, and her daughter, played by Lindsay, who had a terrible mother-daughter relationship until a freak accident forces them to switch bodies and live out each other's lives.

At D23 2024 in August, Lohan and Curtis announced the name of the sequel, Freakier Friday, and the actors shared a little more information about what fans can expect from the movie. Freaky Friday 2 comes after the huge success of the movie musical remake of Mean Girls, which Lindsay made a cameo in.

So, as we prep for some more major 2000's nostalgia, here's everything we know about the movie coming out later in 2025, from the plot and cast to the release date.

When is Freakier Friday coming out?

The official release date for Freakier Friday is August 8th 2025. The blockbuster began filming in June 2024, so it's been a quite time around.

When Lindsay revealed that the sequel was definitely in the works, on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM show, she was asked for a timeline on the production of the film and when it might come out, but she replied: “I won’t say that yet. I don’t want to say too much.”

What is Freaky Friday 2 about?

Freakier Friday will see, you guessed it, even more body swapping. The plot has been summarised to: "Tess and Anna discover that lightning may indeed strike twice as they navigate the myriad challenges that come when two families merge."

However the trailer has now confirmed Anna [Lohan's] daughter and a soon-to-be stepdaughter are also involved in the mysterious swapping, with Curtis' character's swapping places with the teenager while Anna swaps bodies with her daughter.

Manny Jacinto plays Anna's husband, while Chad Michael Murray returns with a new motorbike.

In the first film Lindsay plays a teenager but this film will see her as an adult. On The Drew Barrymore Show Drew asked Lindsay: "Will you be the mum this time?"

"I - we'll see," Lindsay said before miming that she is keeping her mouth zipped.

Is Chad Michael Murray in Freakier Friday?
