Jamie Lee Curtis Blasts Paparazzi’s ‘Intrusion’ On ‘Freaky Friday’ Sequel

Jamie Lee Curtis blasted the paparazzi’s “intrusion” on the set of her and Lindsay Lohan’s highly-anticipated sequel to Disney’s 2003 hit “Freaky Friday.”

On Thursday, the 65-year-old actress released a photo of her own from the set after several paparazzi snaps were published showing part of the story for the mother-daughter body-switching film “Freakier Friday,” Deadline reported.

“OK. Because other outlets have posted it, I am going to take advantage of the intrusion of a paparazzi picture into the creative process of filmmaking,” Curtis shared in her post on Facebook.

“We have tried so hard to keep our story a secret and private until it’s time for release but once in a while an image comes out, and it doesn’t tell you anything about the story or about what’s going on with the characters but it does show the joy and fun that we had making #FREAKIERFRIDAY and we know it will be the experience that you will have in the theaters next year,” she added.

“Yes, you heard me… The theaters,” Curtis continued. “The place we all go and enjoy a shared experience in the dark while munching popcorn and candy and laughing together and sometimes crying together.”

On Friday, the “Halloween” star shared that production had officially wrapped on the sequel and both stars of the original movie have talked about how grateful they were to get to work together again, with Curtis calling Lohan the “ULTIMATE movie daughter,” the outlet noted.

Lohan also shared the news and how excited she was to have gotten to make the film with Curtis, the outlet reported.

“I’m so grateful to have made this film, a story of family, mothers and their children and a film filled with love, laughter and a ton of heart!” the 38-year-old actress wrote. “It has been a pleasure to work with my dear friend @jamieleecurtis who brings so much joy to our set everyday and she has made this all the more special!”

The 2003 “Freaky Friday” movie was a reboot of the original 1976 Disney film with Jodie Foster playing the daughter who switched places with her mom, played by Barbara Harris. It was based on Mary Rodgers’s 1972 novel of the same name.

“An overworked mother and her daughter did not get along,” a description of the movie on IMDb reads. “When they switch bodies, each is forced to adapt to the other’s life for one freaky Friday.”

The 2003 movie, with a reported $26 million budget, was a huge success after earning $160 million at the worldwide box office, Yahoo Entertainment noted.

A description on IMDb about the 2025 sequel reads, “Years after Tess and Anna endured an identity crisis, Anna now has a daughter and a soon-to-be stepdaughter. … As they navigate the challenges that come when two families merge, Tess and Anna discover that lightning might strike twice.”
