Jamie Lee Curtis flew through the air as she performed a stunt on the set of her new film Freakier Friday.

The 65-year-old actress was snapped jumping onto the hood of a car countless times, proving not only that she does her own stunts, but she does them in high-heeled boots!

The scene was shot for her upcoming sequel to the 2003 film Freaky Friday,starring Lindsay Lohan and Chad Michael Murray who are reprising their roles more than two decades later.

The original iconic body-swap comedy hit screens in 2003 and followed Anna (Lindsay) and Tess (Jamie Lee) accidentally swapping identities thanks to very cryptic fortune cookies.

It is thought that in this sequel there will be more body-swapping going on, which could explain Jamie Lee’s look on set.

The star wore a short pink ruffled dress which has sheer sleeves and a low cut to show off her cleavage. The look was paired with blue boots and she wore little bunches in her long silver locks.

The sequel project was initially announced in June 2024 with a post of Lindsay andJamie Lee on set

‘The Colemans are back and coming to theatres in 2025! The sequel to Freaky Friday is now in production!’

The production came to an end on August 22 with Jamie Lee taking to social media to say that she couldn’t wait for fans to see the film and was ‘thrilled’ to be reunited with Lindsay.

‘It’s a WRAP! #freakierfriday @disneystudios Mommy was up way effing past her bedtime. No filter. Little sleep. Lots of laughs and a little blood, much sweat and copious tears.

‘We made it for all of you and I can’t wait for you to see it and I’m thrilled to have been reunited with @lindsaylohan and get to watch new talents form and expand, @julia_butters @thesophiahammons under the leadership of @nisha.ganatra.’

Since the highly anticipated movie began filming, there have been several snaps taken on the set of the production.

Taking to social media, Jamie Lee shared an image from set of her hugging Lindsay, her on-screen daughter.

In the caption of the image, she revealed that she couldn’t wait for the film to be released and had so much ‘joy and fun’ on the set of the upcoming film.

Freakier Friday is set to be released in 2025.
