Freaky Friday 2 will be directed by And Just Like That...'s Nisha Ganatra, with Dollface's Jordan Weiss writing the screenplay.
Before the sequel was announced, Curtis and Lohan teased the possibility of it happening, the Oscar-winner telling Variety in early 2023: "It's 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."
The sequel to Freaky Friday will be released in 2025.
