Lindsay Lohan and Tyra Banks shared an uplifting reunion on August 5 at the Australian premiere of Lindsay’s latest film, Freakier Friday, rekindling excitement among fans for the long-anticipated Life-Size franchise. The reunion highlighted their continued connection and fueled speculation about a potential third installment starring the pair.
Refreshing Reunion at the Freakier Friday Premiere in Australia
On the red carpet at the Australian premiere of Freakier Friday, Lindsay Lohan and Tyra Banks delighted fans with their warm reunion, reminding audiences of the magic they created together years ago. Lindsay wore a striking black dress featuring a bodysuit paired with a sheer, floor-length skirt, embodying elegance and poise. Tyra, who resides in Australia with her partner Louis Bélanger-Martin and their son, York Banks Asla, dazzlingly appeared in a brown satin dress and leather corset accented by mocha-colored pumps.
The occasion was also marked by the presence of Jamie Lee Curtis, Lindsay’s co-star in Freakier Friday, who appeared in a bold red long-sleeved dress, adding to the star-studded vibe of the event. This gathering marked an emotional and stylish moment for the original Life-Size co-stars, reviving interest in their on-screen partnership.
The Legacy of Life-Size and Its Continued Influence
The original Life-Size film, released in 2000, introduced audiences to Lindsay Lohan‘s character Casey and Tyra Banks’ doll, Eve, who magically comes to life. The film’s unique blend of fantasy and heartfelt storytelling left a lasting mark on fans. Tyra later reprised her Eve role in the 2018 sequel featuring Francia Raísa, although Lindsay was unable to participate due to scheduling conflicts. Despite her absence, Lindsay’s influence on the series remained clear. During a 2018 interview on The Talk, Tyra revealed,
“She’s gonna be in this one in a way,”
“There’s some Lindsay in there sprinkled in a very special, sweet way.”
—Tyra Banks, Television Host
Tyra has since expressed her enthusiasm for continuing the franchise and hinted at a creative new direction for a potential third movie, which would feature a fresh magical twist for Lindsay’s character.
A Possible Life-Size 3: Tyra Banks’ Vision
During an October appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, Tyra shared her imaginative concept for a new chapter in the series. She proposed a scenario where Lindsay’s character transforms into a doll, and her Eve character must teach her the ropes of being a doll, deepening the story’s magical and emotional core. Tyra explained,
“I feel like we should do one,”
“And I feel like I’ve been really looking at Lindsay [Lohan] and I feel like, what if she was a doll? What if she, in some kind of way, magically turned into a doll?”
“Then my Eve character had to teach her how to be a doll. I feel like that could be very interesting.”
—Tyra Banks, Television Host
This creative idea not only revives the beloved characters but also explores themes of transformation and friendship through a unique and captivating angle.
