A wedding and a proud 'nepo baby': What the cast of Freaky Friday are up to now, 20 years on.

In 2003, an iconic pairing graced our screens in the form of child star Lindsay Lohan and Hollywood titan Jamie Lee Curtis. 

Together, the mother-daughter acting duo created Freaky Friday - a film considered a cultural phenomenon 20 years later. 

In the movie, Curtis and Lohan switch bodies after cracking open a magical fortune cookie. Together, they learn what it's like to live in each other's shoes and learn the important of family, belonging and... oddly enough, rock music?

Watch the trailer for Freaky Friday. Post continues after video. 

Speaking with Variety at the Producers Guild Awards this week, Curtis hinted that a Freaky Friday sequel is "going to happen". 

"Without saying there's anything officially happening, I'm looking at you in this moment and saying, 'Of course it's going to happen.' It's going to happen," she told the publication.

The actor, who took home a SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for Everything Everywhere All at Once, previously told The View she's "already written to Disney" about a second film. 

"I’m 64 years old today — not today, soon, in a month or whatever. My point is I’m wide open, creatively I am wide open," she said on the talk show last year. 

"Let me be the old grandma who switches places... So then Lindsay [Lohan] gets to be the sexy grandma, who is still happy with Mark Harmon in all the ways you would be happy with Mark Harmon," she suggested.

"And simply, I would like to see Lindsay be the hot grandma, and I would like to see me try to deal with toddlers today. I wanna be a helicopter parent in today’s world, as an old lady."

Given the new hints of a sequel, we thought there would be no better time than now to update on what the cast are up to these days.

Lindsay, who played Anna in Freaky Friday has gone on to have a number of notable starring roles in a bunch of films since, including Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen, Mean Girls, Herbie: Fully Loaded, Just My Luck and Georgia Rule. 

While Lohan was certainly a celebrity in her own right after her iconic Parent Trap film where she played a set of twins, the actor has remained in the headlines for the last decade or so for a mixture of reasons. Unfortunately, not all are good. 

Her famous feuds with Paris Hilton were once front page news, and have now become iconic moments in pop culture. However, since her days of being splashed across tabloids, Lohan has settled back into her acting roots with the recent Netflix film, Falling For Christmas. 

Outside of her career, Lohan tied the knot to her partner Bader Shammas in July 2022.

Chad has been a part of some outstanding films since appearing in Freaky Friday, including House Of Wax, A Cinderella Story, Fruitvale Station, and A Madea Christmas. 

In 2015, Chad married actress Sarah Roemer, and the couple are now parents to two children.

For the actor, Freaky Friday holds a particularly special place in his heart.

"I was Lindsay Lohan’s first kiss and Jamie Lee Curtis was there, and was trying to settle the situation because Lindsay was nervous," he revealed on Busy Tonight. "So we go and sit in Jamie’s trailer and she’s talking to Lindsay like, just kiss him… and she grabs me by the back of the head and makes out with me. At this point I went, ‘Dude, I just made out with Jamie Lee Curtis'."

Curtis is one busy woman! In regards to her acting career, she continued to keep her schedule filled with a number of films including Christmas With The Kranks, The Kid & I, You Again, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Veronica Mars, Halloween and most recently, Academy Award nominated Knives Out. 

The actress has also authored eight children’s books since the film was released - with over a dozen under her belt since 1993.

Curtis shares two daughters with her husband Christopher Guest. In October 2021, their youngest child announced she is transgender and has since changed her name to 'Ruby'. 

Curtis explained her and her husband's amazement at "[having] watched in wonder and pride as our son became our daughter Ruby. And she and her fiancé will get married next year at a wedding that I will officiate." 

During a speech at the SAG Awards this week, Curtis, who is the daughter of actors Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis, proudly referred to herself as a 'nepo baby'. 

"I got my SAG card when I was 19 years old, when I signed a seven-year contract to Universal Studios and starred in an ABC TV series called the ‘Operation Petticoat,’ which was based on the movie that my father, Tony Curtis — nepo baby! — starred in," she said.

"I was fired from that TV show a year later and I thought my life was over,” she continued. “But the good news is that if I hadn’t been fired from ‘Operation Petticoat,’ I would have never had the opportunity to audition for a little tiny, no-budget horror movie called ‘Halloween.’ My name is Jamie Lee Curtis, and I am, proudly, an actor."

The affable husband of Tess in Freaky Friday may look familiar to you.. And that's because he has been the face of hit crime drama series NCIS since 2003, as 'Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs'. 

The original NCIS is one of the longest-running TV shows in the United States and remains to be one of the most-watched in the country. Aussies are also going to be getting their very own spin-off with NCIS: Sydney. 

Currently, there are three spin-offs, based in Los Angeles, New Orleans and Hawaii.

And it's all thanks to you, Mr Harmon...
