Current Appearance of 12 Stars from the Original "Freaky Friday" Film
=========================================================================
Twenty years have passed since the release of the beloved 2000s movie "Freaky Friday", and many of its original cast members have visibly matured but remain active and recognizable. Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, the mother-daughter leads, have reprised their roles in the 2025 sequel "Freakier Friday".
Lindsay Lohan (Anna Coleman) returned to acting after some years away and looks mature but retains features reminiscent of her 2003 self. She stars again in the sequel, now portraying Anna as a mother. Jamie Lee Curtis (Tess Coleman) remains an acclaimed actress with continued success, including an Oscar win in 2023 and an Emmy in 2024. She looks natural and aged gracefully, appearing again as Tess in the sequel.
Chad Michael Murray, originally a teenage heartthrob in 2003, looks like a middle-aged man now and continues work in film and TV. Mark Harmon, best known for NCIS, still is involved in the franchise as a narrator and appears older but active.
Christina Vidal (Maddie) and Haley Hudson (Peg) remain in acting, appearing in various TV series. While older, they are still recognized and active. Ryan Malgarini (Anna’s brother Harry) became an acting teacher and has reappeared onscreen after a hiatus, looking like a grown adult quite distinct from his child actor days.
Stephen Tobolowsky, Rosalind Chao, and Lucille Soong are supporting actors who have aged naturally. Tobolowsky and Soong continue acting into their senior years, while Rosalind Chao remains recognizable but mature.
Unfortunately, Harold Gould, who played the role of Grandpa, passed away in 2010 and thus was not part of recent appearances.
Overall, the cast retains their key physical features but have naturally aged over 20+ years with the original leads notably active in reprising their iconic roles. Photos from 2025 show them looking mature yet vibrant, showing continuity and respect for the beloved 2003 classic.
