Disney is gearing up for the streaming premiere of its much-anticipated sequel to *Freaky Friday*, scheduled for release on its platform, Disney+, on November 12, 2025. This film brings back beloved stars Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, who reprise their iconic roles as Tess and Anna Coleman, respectively. The sequel introduces a new generation of characters, including Anna’s daughter, Harper, played by Julia Butters, and her soon-to-be stepdaughter, Lily, portrayed by Sophia Hammons.
The sequel, which follows the original 2003 film and the 1976 version starring Jodie Foster and Barbara Harris, explores the humorous and chaotic dynamics of a blended family. Critics and audiences alike have responded positively to the film, which offers a modern take on the classic body-swap premise. According to Rotten Tomatoes, it received a commendable 74% critic score and a 91% audience rating, earning both “Certified Fresh” and “Verified Hot” distinctions.
Having premiered in theatres in August, the film successfully recouped its production budget of $42 million during its opening weekend and ultimately grossed around $153 million globally. Its strong box office performance has ignited speculation about a potential third installment. While nothing is currently in development, director Jesse Ganatra hinted at the possibility of a sequel titled *Freakiest Friday*, teasing even more complex body-swapping scenarios.
The film’s nostalgic elements, including numerous callbacks and pop culture references to the 2003 original, resonate with long-time fans. Lohan and Curtis’s chemistry remains a highlight, capturing the same magic that made the first film a hit nearly two decades ago.
As the release date approaches, fans can look forward to the streaming debut, with both the original 1976 and 2003 films already available on Disney+. The return of *Freaky Friday* promises to deliver both laughs and heartfelt moments, appealing to a diverse audience spanning generations.
With the sequel’s success, Disney continues its trend of reviving cherished classics, breathing new life into beloved stories for modern viewers. As audiences prepare to revisit the Coleman family’s adventures, the excitement for what might come next is palpable.
