FREAKIER FRIDAY Trailer Brings the Heartwarming Feels of the Original (And Twice the Body Swap)

H-O-T-T-O-G-O, Chappell Roan’s incredible anthem guides us through the Freakier Friday trailer. And it’s a perfect fit because this trailer is definitely hot to go! It’s been 22 years since Freaky Friday came into our lives with that perfect blend of humor and heart. And while it’s hard to recapture such a specific kind of magic, The Freakier Friday trailer looks totally adorable, with twice as much body swapping and even more inter-generational healing on the horizon. In Freaky Friday, as the Freakier Friday trailer reminds us, Lindsay Lohan’s Anna and her mother, Jamie Lee Curtis’ Tess Coleman, learned important lessons about themselves and one another. And now, in Freakier Friday, they’re about to learn even more… Just add in one more daughter and step-daughter.

See for yourself by checking out the Freakier Friday trailer below.

Say it with us, Ahhhhhhh!!! There’s something wholly bizarre about swapping bodies with your mom. Now imagine swapping bodies with your grandmother. If it were any movie but Freakier Friday, we might be alarmed. But if the trailer for Freakier Friday is anything to go by, this movie will carry off this storyline in style. We guess it’s good timing because some people who saw Freaky Friday way back when might be mothers now, while others might be grandmothers. Fans are in for their own kind of Freaky Friday.

Not to mention, Freakier Friday will bring back many iconic references from the original movie that will have us sighing nostalgically. And that includes Chad Michael Murray’s Jake pulling up on his bike and making a “sexy grand entrance.” But we know that Manny Jacinto is playing Lindsay Lohan’s husband in Freakier Friday, and he is looking so cute in this trailer. So Jake better save that energy for someone else. Maybe Tess?
