"Freakier Friday's" Manny Jacinto on the body swap and how the film is a love letter to LA

View descriptionShare

Over two decades ago, the comedy Freaky Friday posed the question: What would happen if a mom and her teenage daughter — played by Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan — swapped bodies?

Earlier this month, the sequel Freakier Friday hit theaters, back with a similar premise and much of the same cast. But this time, with a new romantic lead: Manny Jacinto, known for his role on the sitcom The Good Place.

LAist host Antonia Cereijido spoke to Jacinto about the enduring allure of the inter-generational body swap conceit, aging in Hollywood and how the movie is a love letter to Los Angeles.
