Let us hope not as the legendary actress, Jamie Lee Curtis, has apparently agreed that she is up for doing a 'Freaky Friday' sequel and has written to Disney about it. It was a fantasy-comedy film that was helmed by Mark Waters and written by Heather Hach and Leslie Dixon while being based on Mary Rodgers's 1972 novel of the same name.

It stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan as a mother and daughter, respectively, whose bodies are switched by a mysterious and magical Chinese fortune cookie. The movie was considered a classic "sleepover" movie. The film was released in theaters on August 6, 2003, by Walt Disney Pictures and distributed by Buena Vista Pictures.
