Fans are saying the same thing about Disney’s Freakier Friday trailer that officially dropped on Friday. 

The anticipated movie – which is a sequel to the 2003 film Freaky Friday – sees Lindsay Lohan, 38, and Jamie Lee Curtis, 66, reprising their original roles, as well as Chad Michael Murray. 

The teaser reveals that Freakier Friday will follow a similar plotline to the first movie in which Lohan and Curtis’ characters switch bodies – but with a big twist. 

Social media users were quick to jump to X to share their thoughts on the trailer for the film – which is set to hit theaters this summer on August 8. 

One typed out, ‘Why do they need to waste so much money, time and talent to make the same movie again.’ 

Another penned, ‘In an age of pointless remakes and sequels, this might be the worst,’ while one added, ‘This sequel looks like it’s a bit too much for my taste. I’ll stick with the first movie.’

‘Was this needed? No. Is it going to top the first one? No. Will I be seated for this? Absolutely,’ one fan shared. 

Another commented, ‘Who else prefers the previous one to this sequel??’ and a fan tweeted, ‘This looks like an absolute mess of a script lol.’

However, the fortune teller added, ‘You learned a lesson. A lesson that may serve you again.’

The next morning, Lohan and Curtis wake up to shockingly realize they were no longer in their bodies and loudly scream into the mirror as they peer at their reflections. 

But all is not what it seems when Lindsay’s daughter Harper (Julia ʙuттers) and soon-to-be stepdaughter Lily (Sophia Hammons) appear to also be involved in the switch as well. 

Curtis can then be seen dramatically saying, ‘My face looks like a Birkin bag that’s been left out in the sun to rot!’ 

The rest of the teaser shows snippets as the family figure out how to reverse the switch while pretending to be each other in their normal daily lives. 

At the end, Curtis and Lohan strolled down a sidewalk while glammed up, with Jamie telling Lindsay, ‘Okay, I’ll let you know when it’s time for you to make your Sєxy grand entrance.’

And last year in September, Jamie also opened up about acting with Lohan once again during an interview with Extra. 

‘So fun. We just did it this summer… We came together for 42 days and just laughed a lot, cried a lot,’ she said at the time. 

‘It’s a four-way switch… so it was intense. We have these two young beautiful actors with us, so I think you guys are going to love it.’

The actress continued, ‘It’s joyful, you know, it’s a movie that people love and people are going to love this.’ 

Lohan also confirmed that her band Pink Slip from the original 2003 movie is also set return in the sequel. 

While talking to IMDB, the mother-of-one discussed reprising her role and said, ‘It feels like a rhythm that never stopped.

‘So fun. We just did it this summer… We came together for 42 days and just laughed a lot, cried a lot,’ Jamie said at the time

‘Pink Slip is returning in full force with a lot of love in their hearts. And it’s so much fun. And it feels like the band never left each other.’ 

Curtis also shared, ‘The movie is just freakier in all aspects. It’s funnier, and there’s more physical comedy. The switches are freakier. This one has more swapping.’

Freaky Friday (2003) earned positive reviews from critics upon its release and earned Curtis a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. 

The movie also raked in $160.8 million in the box office on a budget of $26 million.
