Freaky Friday 2 is getting close to adding its first new cast member. The movie is the long-awaited sequel to the 2003 Mark Waters comedy Freaky Friday, which was the third adaptation of the 1972 Mary Rodgers novel of the same name about a mother and daughter switching bodies, after the 1976 original starring Jodie Foster and Barbara Harris and a 1995 TV movie starring Shelley Long and Gaby Hoffmann. The upcoming Freaky Friday 2 is set to feature the return of the stars of Waters version, Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, with Nisha Ganatra taking over as director.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, the first new cast member is about to join the returning stars of Freaky Friday 2. The 15-year-old actor Julia Butters is reportedly in talks to board the movie, though the character she would be playing has not yet been specified. It seems likely that Butters will be playing one of two teenage girls with whom lead characters Tess and Anna Coleman are reported to be swapping bodies in the new movie, namely Anna’s daughter and future stepdaughter.
