Development in progress for 'Freaky Friday 3'?

In an exciting development for fans of the beloved body-swap comedy "Freaky Friday", director Nisha Ganatra has hinted at the possibility of a third sequel titled "Freakiest Friday". Although the project has not been officially announced or released yet, Ganatra has shared some intriguing ideas for this potential threequel.

If greenlit, "Freakiest Friday" will continue the playful body-swap premise, potentially involving more characters to create a chaotic yet entertaining narrative. Ganatra has suggested that this could include characters like Manny Jacinto's Eric or Chad Michael Murray's Jake, adding new dynamics and challenges to the storyline.

However, Ganatra has acknowledged that adding more body swap candidates could push the boundaries of believability. She intends to manage this creatively, as she did with the four-way body swap in the recent sequel, "Freakier Friday".

Regarding release timing, no official date has been announced for "Freakiest Friday". The second sequel, "Freakier Friday", directed by Ganatra, was released in early August 2025 and stars the original cast members, Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, reprising their roles, with a focus on the next generation involving their daughters.

In "Freakier Friday", Anna, played by Lohan, and Tess, played by Curtis, discover a possible repetition of their past in the next generation. The plot revolves around Anna's blended family facing new challenges. The film serves as a continuation of the story from the original "Freaky Friday".

While details about the plot of "Freakiest Friday" are scarce, it is clear that Ganatra is eager to explore the body-swap concept further and deliver another fun and engaging film for fans of the franchise. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project!
