'Friday's Frenzy: A Wild Switch for Parents and Grandparents'
In the world of entertainment, excitement is building for the upcoming release of "Freakier Friday," a long-awaited sequel to the beloved Disney movie "Freaky Friday" from 2003. This time around, the body-swap story continues across two generations in the Coleman family.
Produced by Disney, "Freakier Friday" stars Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis reprising their roles from the original, with a twist. Anna Coleman, now a music producer and mother to teenage daughter Harper, and her mother Tess, who helps raise Harper, find themselves swapping bodies with Harper and her soon-to-be stepsister Lily, in a four-way trade.
The plot takes an amusing turn as the older women navigate teenage life, dealing with school detention and chemistry experiments gone wrong, while the teenagers grapple with adult responsibilities and physical challenges of age. The characters learn to understand and fix each other's emotional struggles, with the younger generation helping to disrupt Anna’s wedding plans and bonding with Anna’s old high school boyfriend, and the adults confronting their own feelings about family and love.
The movie, directed by Glen Wilson, is filled with jokes about being old and kids these days, and features twice as many body swaps as the original. The release date for "Freakier Friday" has yet to be announced.
