Normally, we’re not really pro sequels for movies that really don’t seem like they ever needed one. But we’re willing to make an exception for Disney’s Freaky Friday sequel, Freakier Friday. Honestly, there’s been a dearth of movies aimed at teens in our lives. And even though technically, Freakier Friday is probably hitting millennials harder than anyone else. If Freakier Friday‘s trailer is anything to go by, the sequel movies seems to have captured the sincere spirit of an early oughts teen movie. And so we applaud it.

Check out the Freakier Friday trailer below.

No one wants to be an adult until they realize they can now drive a cool car, spend lots of money, AND break up their parents’ wedding if they so choose If they can get their act together, that is. In this even bigger body swap comedy sequel, Tess, Anna, her daughter, and her soon-to-be stepdaughter all end up in one another’s bodies. We won’t think too closely about that as adults. We’ll just accept it for the harmless fun it is. Except, this time, daughter and step-daughter are on a nefarious mission. But if their best effort is to bring back Anna’s first love, Chad Michael Murray’s Jake well, they have a ways to go. Especially since Jake thinks Anna is having a stroke instead of flirting, oops!

We just hope that Manny Jacinto’s leading man doesn’t get his feelings too hurt. We LOVE him!
