The Colemans are back and getting freaky again!
After more than two decades, Lindsay Lohan and Oscar-winner Jamie Lee Curtis are reuniting for a sequel to "Freaky Friday."
Walt Disney Studios released images of Lohan, 37, and Curtis, 65, on the set of the untitled sequel to the 2003 classic "Freaky Friday." The two actors held hands and naturally posed in front of each other's trailers for the body-switching comedy sequel.
Curtis starred as overworked mother Tess Coleman and Lohan as her teenage daughter Anna who wake up to discover they have switched bodies in the 2003 comedy "Freaky Friday." Chaos ensues as the two try to live each other's lives until they figure out a solution.
In the sequel, adult Anna now has a daughter of her own and a soon-to-be stepdaughter. "As they navigate the myriad challenges that come when two families merge, Tess and Anna discover that lightning might indeed strike twice," Disney said in a statement on Monday.
