The Big Picture Julia Butters, known for her small yet impactful roles in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and The Fabelmans, is reportedly in talks to join Freaky Friday 2, per Deadline, citing a report from Jeff Sneider. Butters would star opposite Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis in the long-awaited sequel. The majority of the plot, as well as a release date for Freaky Friday 2, are not yet known.
An exact release for Freaky Friday 2 is not yet known. Outside of Lohan and Lee Curtis, it's unknown if other cast members will join, though Chad Michael Murray has expressed his interest. The original Freaky Friday premiered in theaters in 2003 and grossed $160.8 million worldwide. That total is impressive considering the film's budget of $26 million.
2024 has been a busy year for both of the original Freaky Friday stars in Lohan and Lee Curtis. Lohan starred in Netflix's romantic comedy Irish Wish and also had a cameo appearance in the film adaptation of the Mean Girls musical. She'll also be the lead in another romantic comedy for Netflix later this year, Our Little Secret. As for Lee Curtis, she'll next be seen in Eli Roth's Borderlands film. She also has a supporting role in James L. Brooks's next film, Ella McCay.
