"Freaky Friday" follows the story of Tess and Anna Coleman, a mother and daughter who could not be more different. When they wake up the next morning having switched bodies, they must learn to see things from a new perspective.
The sequel picks up years after the first "Freaky Friday." "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," the studio announced.
The film is directed by Nisha Ganatra. The producers are Kristin Burr, Andrew Gunn, and Jamie Lee Curtis, with Nathan Kelly, Ann Marie Sanderlin, and Lindsay Lohan serving as executive producers.
The sequel to "Freaky Friday" will be released in theaters in 2025.
