Do you hear that sound? Its fans (especially ‘90s kids) cheering at the idea of Freaky Friday 2 with Lohan and Curtis. The latter actress definitely seems open to the idea. So if Lohan follows suit perhaps the House of Mouse will start actively developing another wacky body swap comedy.

On top of thoise of us who grew up with that movie, it’s also steaming with a Disney+ subscription, and likely has reached younger fans as a result.
