The buzz surrounding the sequel reached new heights when Jamie Lee Curtis revealed that she personally approached Disney CEO Bob Iger about the project. “That was about a year and a half ago; we have been shooting now for two months.

Directed by Nisha Ganatra, best known for her work on “Late Night” and “The High Note,” the film promises a fresh twist on the classic body-swapping antics. New characters played by Julia Butters, Manny Jacinto, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, and Sophia Hammons will add depth to the story.
