Freaky Friday Sequel Freakier Friday Gets Disney+ Streaming Release Date

Things are about to get freakier on streaming. Disney+ has officially announced the streaming release date for the new Freaky Friday sequel, Freakier Friday.

Fans will be able to watch the Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan movie at home on Disney+ starting on November 12, which, funnily enough, is a Wednesday and not a Friday. Hey, you do what you can in this business.

The film — which stars Curtis, Lohan, and returning cast members Chad Michael Murray, Mark Harmon, Christina Vidal Mitchell, Haley Hudson, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky, and Rosalind Chao — premiered in August and soared past its $42 million budget to gross over $94 million worldwide during its theatrical run.

The original film, released in 2003 as the third adaptation of the 1972 novel, is a cherished early aughts comedy, and it’s no surprise that the fondness for it inspired the cast to return for a second chapter. Curtis previously shared how impactful the first film was for her. “It was an unexpected moment for me professionally,” she revealed in a clip from Freakier Friday’s bonus features. “And then it became this pivoting moment for me professionally, because the movie was such an enormous worldwide success.”

Murray, who played Lohan’s central love interest in 2003, feels nostalgic about the project and its lasting influence. “You know, 22 years ago, making a movie,” he explained in the clip, “I was new to town, and I got the opportunity to come and work with Jamie Lee and Lindsay, and just go make a movie that hit on so many levels, and so many people could identify with the story.”

For Lohan, she remembers all the fun the group had making the film, which undoubtedly elevated her stardom even further than it already was at the time. “We were just having such a great time, all the time,” she said. “I only have really happy memories of being on set.”

Freakier Friday, which follows Lohan’s Anna as she ends up body-swapping with her own daughter, also stars newcomers to the franchise Manny Jancinto, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Sophia Hammons, and Julia Butters.
