Manny Jacinto knows just how special Freakier Friday (August 8) is. “This Freaky Friday story means a lot to so many people.” In the new film, Jacinto plays Eric, a single dad engaged to Lindsay Lohan’s Anna. Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis both reprise their roles from the 2003 original about a mother-daughter switching identities. “I had the benefit of not having to come in with a character that was already established. I can kind of do my own thing, kind of bring a different flavor to the screen.” While Jacinto adds something new to the movie, he’s more than aware of the power Curtis and Lohan bring to the project. “I obviously didn’t know [Lohan] back in the day, but she was an icon for a lot of us, and she’s still an icon.” And he compliments Curtis as, “still hungry.... She just brings it every single time. I would love to have half the energy that she has because she’s a fireball.” While he calls the fanfare around the film “wild,” it’s worth it in the end. “It’s such a lovely, lovely story, a fun story, and it’s something I think that the world really needs right now.”
