Friday Arrives on Wednesday
August 6, 2003
Getting a jump on the weekend is the remake of the 1976 Disney classic Freaky Friday starring Jodie Foster and Barbara Harris. This version of Freaky Friday stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan. So far the reviews are amazing, currently sitting at 88%, (although, by the weekend that may change.) However, the two stars do not have a huge draw at the box office. Jamie Lee Curtis hasn't have a big hit since 1994's True Lies and Lindsay Lohan's only other movie role was in another Disney remake, The Parent Trap.
Taking into account star power, reviews and genre Freaky Friday will take $6 million Wednesday and $16 million for the weekend. Not bad for a movie that cost $26 million to make, but not a big hit either.
