A high-strung mom and her punky daughter learn what it's like to walk in each other's shoes -- literally -- in
Disney's second update of their 1977
teen fantasy comedy. The new-millennium
Freaky Friday has disgruntled teen
Anna Coleman (
Lindsay Lohan) living, sans father, with her uptight therapist-author mom
Tess (
Jamie Lee Curtis) and bratty brother
Harry (
Ryan Malgarini). The angst between the two reaches a fever pitch on the eve of
Tess' wedding rehearsal:
Anna wants to ditch the proceedings for an all-important band audition, but
Tess sees the conflict as a show of resentment toward imminent step-dad
Ryan (
Mark Harmon). When the whole clan goes out to dinner at their favorite Chinese restaurant, their sage waitress (
Lucille Soong) picks up on the tension between the mother and daughter and casts a spell on them via two magic fortune cookies. The next day,
Tess and
Anna must put up with life in each other's bodies -- until, as the fortune says, they can come to a greater understanding of one another.
Freaky Friday was previously remade for TV in 1995 with
Shelley Long and
Gaby Hoffman in the leads.
