‘Freaky Friday 2’ Is A Go With ‘Welcome to Chippendales’ Director (Exclusive)


Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan are in talks to star in the Disney feature for filmmaker Nisha Ganatra, with cameras hoping to roll this summer.

The studio has tapped Nisha Ganatra, who most recently helmed episodes of Hulu miniseries Welcome to Chippendales, to direct a sequel to its 2003 family comedy Freaky Friday, giving the long-promised project momentum and putting it on track for a summer shoot in Los Angeles. Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, who starred in the original, are in negotiations to reprise their roles as the mother and daughter combo who find themselves switching bodies and lives. The franchise is based on the 1972 children’s book by Mary Rogers and the original adaptation, released in 1976, starred Barbara Harris as the mother and Jodie Foster as the daughter.
