what is the plot of Freakier Friday 2
In Freakier Friday, the story will have a multigenerational twist. After swapping bodies with her single mom Tess (Curtis) in the first film due to a magic fortune cookie, Anna (Lohan) now has her own daughter and a stepdaughter. This blending of two families sets the stage for another body-swapping adventure like the one in Freaky Friday (2003).
Curtis confirmed that Tess won’t swap bodies with Jake, played by Murray. She mentioned on the 20 Questions On Deadline podcast, “That would be a different movie. No, I’m not swapping with Jake. I’m not playing Jake. I can’t say much more; we’re deep into it right now.”
Freaky Friday is based on the children’s book of the same name by Mary Rodgers. The story was first adapted into a film in 1976, starring Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster as the mother and daughter.
