Lohan has returned to the big screen and will star in the upcoming film, ‘Freakier Friday’, a follow-up to the 2003 comedy ‘Freaky Friday’. The new story features a multigenerational twist, with Anna Lohan as a mom. The movie will be released in theaters on August 8, 2025. Lohan expressed her desire to break the cycle of being pigeonholed and open doors to something else, leaving people no choice. She is not going to say no if Martin Scorsese reaches out. (IANS)
