Lindsay Lohan, Jamie Lee Curtis Reveal Manny Jacinto Will Play Lohan’s Onscreen Husband in ‘Freakier Friday’

Sorry, Anna and Jake shippers. It appears the beloved character played by Chad Michael Murray in Freaky Friday is not married to Lindsay Lohan‘s Anna in the upcoming sequel, Freakier Friday.

In a conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Lohan and her onscreen mother, Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis), revealed that Anna is married to Manny Jacinto‘s character, whose name hasn’t been revealed yet.

“Manny plays Lindsay’s husband. But that’s like as much as we can say,” Curtis told the publication, sharing that they’re still in the middle of shooting. “Manny is lovely. So funny,” Lohan added of her onscreen love interest.

When Disney revealed that Murray would be returning to play Jake in the Freaky Friday sequel, fans were filled with excitement, hoping that they’d get to see Lohan and Murray’s characters together 20 years after the original film.

While it appears they won’t be in a romantic relationship, Curtis teased, “Chad is in it. And boy, oh boy, is Chad in it.”

Lohan, Curtis and Murray aren’t the only castmembers returning for the sequel. They’ll be joined by original stars Mark Harmon, Christina Vidal Mitchell, Haley Hudson, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky and Rosalind Chao, as well as newcomers Jacinto, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan.

The Freaky Friday sequel picks up years after Tess and Anna switched bodies, and now Anna has a daughter of her own and a soon-to-be stepdaughter. “As they navigate the myriad challenges that come when two families merge, Tess and Anna discover that lightning might indeed strike twice,” the film synopsis reads.

Aside from Jacinto playing Lohan’s onscreen husband, no further details have been released about Butters, Hammons and Ramakrishnan’s roles — though it’s likely at least one of them will be playing Lohan’s daughter and another one may take on the part of her almost-stepdaughter.

Producers include Curtis, Kristin Burr and Andrew Gunn, who worked on the original film. Lohan, Nathan Kelly and Ann Marie Sanderlin serve as executive producers of the sequel, directed by Welcome to Chippendales helmer Nisha Ganatra.

Freakier Friday will hit theaters sometime in 2025.
