With each film making it to the top on the streaming platform. The 38-year-old actor said she loved to make films of that genre, but can't make the same thing forever. "I always want to make movies like that...things that make people happy and bring people together. I love making movies for that reason, for people to escape and find something that they can take into their own life and realize everything's going to be okay," she told Elle magazine in an interview.

"But with Netflix, I was like, 'Okay, now we need to be thinking about other stuff.' I can't do movies like these forever," she added. Lohan will next feature in Disney's "Freakier Friday". The film is a sequel to 'Freaky Friday.' The first part was directed by Mark Waters and featured Lohan alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, who is also returning for the sequel. The film revolved around a mother and daughter with a rocky relationship, who find themselves trapped in each other's bodies after a visit to the mysterious Chinese restaurant.

The actor said "everything felt at ease" while making the sequel. "I feel like everything felt at ease when we were making it, and I feel that's the best way to describe how I felt when I watched it. It felt easy and fun, and fresh at the same time. There's not a lot bringing me to the movie theaters personally right now. "It is a feel-good movie (Freakier Friday), which is what I want to give people. And it's fun. When I saw the second cut, I wanted to get up and dance at the end. I was like, 'Oh, this is cool. I like this song. I want people to do that," she said. "Freakier Friday" is directed by Nisha Ganatra and is written by Jordan Weiss.
