The Parent Trap star Elaine Hendrix might happily let another lizard crawl around on her face, thank you very much!

In a new interview about her upcoming Freakier Friday cameo opposite fellow Parent Trap star Lindsay Lohan, Hendrix tells Entertainment Weekly she’s willing to shoot a sequel to Disney’s 1998 cinematic remake of the 1961 original — even if it might be difficult for her antagonistic character, Meredith Blake, to find a way back into the story.

“There are always rumors. I don’t know where they come from. I think it’s mostly [from] fans who would love to see that,” Hendrix says when asked about plans for a potential continuation to the film, which saw Lohan play dual roles as twins Hallie and Annie as they prepared for their father’s (Dennis Quaid) unfavorable marriage to Meredith.

Hendrix confirms that she’s yet to hear “anything official” about a second film, and questions, “How would you bring Meredith Blake back into the sequel?” after the girls’ dad broke up with her during the bombastic finale.

“But, I’d be so crushed if she wasn’t part of a sequel,” Hendrix admits, adding that she’d “hands down, in the right situation” join a sequel if the studio asked.

“Clearly there are so many sequels that should have never been made, and I’m not going to name names or titles,” she jokes. “Freakier Friday is definitely not one of them. Our Parent Trap wasn’t a sequel — it was reboot, and definitely should’ve been made. So, yeah, I’d totally be into it. I loved it, that was a great experience from A to Z.”

Of her reunion with Lohan in Freakier Friday, which also stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Hendrix says she’s now in closer contact with Lohan than she ever was before, as she tells EW she didn’t speak much with the child star after The Parent Trap due to a difference in age.

“She lives on the other side of the world and has a family and is busy. We both have full lives, but particularly through social media and texting, we’re staying in touch, which is quite lovely,” Hendrix says. “I’m so happy for her and where she is in her life. It’s nice, in these new chapters of our lives, to be in contact.”

Freakier Friday is in theaters on Aug. 8.

Queer history never dies, it is only born again.

Twenty years after the groundbreaking premiere of Noah’s Arc, the crew is back for Noah’s Arc: The Movie — the first new chapter in the beloved franchise since the 2020 reunion special Noah’s Arc: The ‘Rona Chronicles.

A lot has changed in the two decades since audiences first met the core four of Noah’s Arc – so titled after Noah (Darryl Stephens) and his A.R.C. – Alex (Rodney Chester), Ricky (Christian Vincent), and Chance (Doug Spearman) – four queer Black best friends living and looking for their Mr. Rights (including Jensen Atwood and Wilson Cruz) in Los Angeles.

In the trailer for Noah’s Arc: The Movie, which Entertainment Weekly can exclusively reveal below, the guys have traded hookup culture and other youthful pursuits for playful banter about “daddies” and, in fact, actual fatherhood.

“One of the things that scared me most about being gay was missing out on being a dad,” Atwood’s Wade says in the trailer’s opening seconds. Re-establishing the series’ trademark trade-off between heartfelt pathos and irreverent humor, Wade’s partner and series anchor Noah replies, “Well, you’ll always be my daddy.”

After the show — Logo’s first scripted series — ended in 2006 with a cliffhanger, 2008’s Noah’s Arc: Jumping the Broom showed Noah and Wade finally tie the knot in an intimate ceremony held on Martha’s Vineyard. Now, the happy couple is still going strong – strong enough to grow their family.

But Noah and Wade have their work cut out for them as they prepare to welcome twins, while Noah is offered a dream job just as he’s about to take on the role of stay-at-home parent.

“Hey Siri, how do I stop a baby crying!” Noah cries out in panic in one scene previewed in the trailer.

Others tease exciting new additions to the Noah’s Arc family, including nanny candidate Jasmine Guy (“What will you do when the babies wake up at 2 o’clock in the morning?” she asks Noah, who replies, “Make my way to the top of the stairs and scream for the governess!”)

“Bringing Noah’s Arc back feels like a family reunion – and trust me, we’ve got plenty of stories left to tell,” original series creator Patrik-Ian Polk, who returned to executive produce, direct, and write Noah’s Arc: The Movie, tells EW in a statement. “Through all these years, the fans have never stopped asking for more. And Noah’s Arc: The Movie picks up right where we left off – but with more depth, more drama and a whole lot of heart.”

Polk continues, “I know our diehard fans will be delighted, but newcomers are invited to the party as well. You don’t have to be familiar with the series to get into this new installment- it works as a standalone film. Creating this project was a labor of love, a celebration of how far we’ve come and where these beloved characters are headed next.”
