Lindsay Lohan Says 'Freaky Friday' Sequel Is a ‘Love Letter' to Iconic Movie House that Burned Down
The Freaky Friday sequel, Freakier Friday, starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, hits theaters on Aug. 8 During an interview with Elle, Lohan said the film is "such an homage" to California and pays tribute to her character's home from the 2003 film The real home was destroyed in the deadly wildfires that swept through Los Angeles earlier this yearFreakier Friday is sentimental for Lindsay Lohan in more ways than one. Ahead of the highly-anticipated Freaky Friday sequel hitting theaters on Aug. 8, Lohan, 38, opened up to Chloe Fineman for a May 27 interview with Elle about filming the upcoming movie in Los Angeles. The actress — who stars in the remake of the 2003 classic alongside Jamie Lee Curtis — told Fineman that the sequel feels like a tribute to the areas impacted by the tragic wildfires that swept through L.A. in January. The property that was used as her character Anna Coleman's home in the original movie sadly burned down during the natural disaster. 'The film is such an homage to California after the fires, because we shot a lot in the Palisades and in Malibu,' Lohan said. 'Even the house — the original Freaky Friday house — unfortunately, is gone. So I think it'll be a really nice love letter.' The Palisades Fire was the first wildfire to erupt on Jan. 7, and it wasn't fully contained until Jan. 31 along with the Eaton Fire. The deadly blaze burned approximately 23,448 acres, according to CAL FIRE, and the cause is still under investigation. In response to Fineman asking if it felt 'special' to be back filming in L.A., Lohan responded: 'Yeah. For the crew, they're so excited to be working here, where they go back home to their families. That's the difference you feel here. It's nice.' Referring to her son Luai, whom she welcomed in 2023 with husband Bader Shammas, she added, 'I made it home every night, except for one, to tuck my son in. And it shows in the film — when you're happy behind the scenes, that comes through.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from juicy celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Fans will officially get to see Freakier Friday in theaters this August, 22 years after the first movie premiered. 2023's Freaky Friday is a remake of the 1976 film of the same name starring Jodie Foster. A number of familiar faces will be returning for the sequel, including Mark Harmon, Chad Michael Murray, Christina Vidal Mitchell, Haley Hudson, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky and Rosalind Chao.

Kevin Costner Still Pining for Jewel After Rumored Romance: ‘She Has Other Priorities'
Kevin Costner and '90s folk-pop queen Jewel's rumored romance may have fizzled out a while ago, but he remains a huge admirer of her music, and he's looking forward to being front and center at her upcoming performances whilst quietly hoping it'll lead to more, Life & Style has exclusively learned. "Kevin's big miscalculation in his ongoing attempts to woo Jewel is his failing to understand that she isn't done yet, and she's certainly not in any frame of mind where she would want to be arm candy,' a source exclusively tells Life & Style. 'You talk to Jewel for five minutes and it becomes very clear that she still has a lot she wants to do with her music career and writing, and she still longs to win a Grammy after being nominated four times during her heyday.' The insider also makes it clear that the 'Who Will Save Your Soul' singer, 50, 'has other priorities ahead of finding a new romantic relationship.' 'For all of Kevin's lofty talk about his own musical ambitions, he is still not much more than an amateur while Jewel is undeniably a seasoned pro. It took a while for Kevin to really understand this, but he remains in awe of her talent and supportive of her career, even from a distance,' the source explains to Life & Style. 'He would have loved to collaborate with her and even date her, but he has to resign himself to being her number one fan instead, because she still has a lot of mountains she wants to climb herself!" Kevin, 70, and Jewel maintained a low-key romance after they sparked dating rumors in November 2023, seven months after the Yellowstone alum and ex-wife Christine Baumgartner separated. They finalized their divorce in February 2024. The pair met while participating in a pro-am tennis tournament at billionaire Richard Branson's Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands. 'Kevin looked handsome, tan and fit. All the guests were going crazy over him,' a source told In Touch in December 2023. 'He really hit it off with Jewel.' The insider told the outlet that the pair were seated next to each other at a dinner and were 'laughing and chatting' and 'looked like they were having a lot of fun.' Chatter about Jewel and Kevin's romance continued to make headlines in the following months, leading the musician to address the speculation during an April 2024 interview with Elle. 'He's a great person,' Jewel told the publication, who noted that she was 'blushing' while talking about the Bodyguard actor. 'The public fascination is intense for sure.' Later that month, In Touch reported that Jewel was a positive aspect in Kevin's life during his nasty divorce battle with Christine, 51. 'Jewel's been through divorce too [with ex-husband Ty Murray], though not in such a public way as Kevin. The media interest in her romance with Kevin isn't something she's used to, but she's handled it remarkably well,' the second insider told the outlet. 'She's not someone who caters to the spotlight. She can turn it off. Her focus is on keeping her life as normal as possible. She sees Kevin for the sensitive, caring soul he is.' Kevin, for his part, addressed the dating rumors during a candid interview with Howard Stern in June 2024, claiming their relationship was strictly platonic while still singing her praises. 'No, Jewel and I are friends. We've never gone out, ever,' he said at the time. 'She's special, and I don't want these rumors to ruin our friendship because that's what we have. She's special to me. She's beautiful enough to go out with.'
